Lying around

Tyler, doin' his thing (View My YouTube Channel)

I planned on downloading pictures off the camera today and getting them online. That will, apparently, not be happening. Sarah's sister is dealing with some health concerns, so Sarah and Tyler went up to visit and provide some love and support. Don't worry, folks, she'll be fine. She's just in a lot of pain. I say "just" as if it's no big deal, and I don't intend for that. She hurts, but she's not dying. Anyway, Sarah has the camera, so no pictures for you.

The lack of a camera motivated me to load up the videos that are in the "Videos - Raw" folder of my computer, edit them, and re-save them in the "Videos" folder. A few days ago, Sarah took a vid of Tyler lying around and doing, well.... nothing really. It's 4 minutes long, and there's nothing really going on, but feel free to watch it if you've got some time to kill. I'm telling you though, he's just lying around. It's not nearly as exciting as Chris chasing battling geese or anything like that. I have also just realized that I'm not entirely sure when to use "lie", "lay", "laying", or "lying", as in "He's laying down" or "He's lying down". I found this online, but my brain is in lazy mode today, so I've bookmarked it for later use. I hate misspelling words, and I hate using the wrong words (they're, their, there - your, you're - to, too, two), so I'll get it figured out.

I also spent some time getting the colors on my YouTube channel to match up with my BlogSpot, MySpace, and Twitter. I haven't delved into SmugMug yet, because I'd actually have to upgrade my account ($$) to be given the ability to customize it. Facebook doesn't allow that kind of stuff, so I've done just about all I can do to make my network mesh.

We now have a freezer in the garage. It's bittersweet, really. See... I was really looking forward to building the automatic-thermostat-heater thing. I was slightly disheartened when I saw that I wasn't the first person to come up with the idea. It was made worse when I went to Sears (I know) and found a Kenmore for $179 that can be used in "unheated spaces". I bought it and felt a little empty on the inside. I really wanted to build that thing. I've been trying to think of another application it would work for, so that I can build it anyway.

Lastly, I'd like to create an "About Me" page here at Blogspot/Blogger, but can't figure out how? Anyone here know how? My thought would be to just create a new post and link to that. I'm fine with that, but I'd like it to NOT show up on my listing of blog posts. Ugh... nvm
