Little things

I borrow DVDs from the library simply on the merit of them having a DTS audio track. I intend to spend about forty dollars to never have to move my Mac Mini across the living room to the HDTV ever again. We call this a first world problem. I occasionally have difficulty figuring out what the cast of Torchwood is talking about, not because I'm not following, but (what I expect are) their heavy Welsh accents getting in the way. I imagine these same people would have trouble with my accent as well, though I try to avoid speaking in one. It makes Amy giggle when my New York accent comes out. Hot dogs. I think I'm going to mark 25 pounds lost this week, or at least I'll come close. Watch my Twitter for updates. I really wish Helvetica was licensed for the web. This post looks so much nicer within MarsEdit. I suggest you all run out, get a Mac, and install NetNewsWire and make it display this post in beautiful Helvetica. John Gruber, of Daring Fireball, has made me a font snob. I love him for it, even if he likes the Dallas Cowboys. Speaking of MarsEdit, Daniel Jalkut, the genius developer behind Red Sweater, sounds like he really wants to make MarsEdit for the iPad. He intimated this on a podcast while I was sitting my couch, Mac Mini connected to the HDTV, remembering that I needed to blog and not wanting to do it from the iPhone at the time. So if I buy an iPad, it won't be until MarsEdit exists for it, at which point I can claim it was all Daniel's fault. I'm testing the Clear internet service in my apartment. So far, it's not working at all. This may be more indicative of the poor signal reception of all electromagnetic waves where I live than the quality of the service itself. I'll let everyone know here after the tech visit. I demand that I am Vroomfondle. Amy got a neat new haircut. I like it. Her natural curls work well with it. There are very few transitions in this post. Scott Schneider would be very angry. There are also very few tags. This is mostly to bury this post as it will be hardly relevant after a few weeks. Are you following me on Twitter? I mean seriously. If you're reading this, you care what I have to say, you're not offended by my politics and you must like me. At which point, you want to follow me. I've also started using Buzz. Their location-aware web app is up to Google's usual quality. I plan on testing it for a week before deciding if I want it to replace Twitter. Yes, it's late. Yes, I'm rambling. But these are things I've been wanting to post about. And I need to do laundry as well. I'm going to start my laundry now. When I come back, I'm going to talk about movies and wrestling. If this were a TV show, I'd ask you to stay tuned. Because I'm that kind of person.
