I hate when I get this song stuck in my head!

Originally when I heard it, I kinda dug it, especially the guitar part, but now it grates on me, especially the guitar part. [smile]

"Look ugly in a photograph. Flash bulbs purple irises"?? "Write crap lyrics. For your song."

Ehhh...

Ugly Borders in Firefox

Nothing reminds me of being in Tempe like looking at my weblog in Firefox. Okay, so that's a very relative statement.

Neither the less, I refused to use Internet Explorer (or even moreso, AOL's Internet Explorer [wink] ) and very quickly installed Firefox on Katie's machine. One day she'll see the light and thank me! [smile].

First thing I noticed when blogging was the god awful ugly thick black borders around my page, when rendered in Firefox. It was......well, awful. [smile]

Tonight after installing Firefox on my second machine, I decided it was time to fix it. Pretty easy once I realised what was going on in the CSS. CSS is a beautiful thing - a complete pain in the ass when you don't really understand it, but a beautiful thing when you do.

Ahhh, everything is now right with the world. [smile]

Motile Send Off

Last night we had my Motile send off get together - a tradition started when Chris and Stewart left in March. Anytime someone leaves or get's the axe, we'd get together. In true Motile form, a week after I'd left. But to be fair, there was no time in my last week, and also Jazz was away for the second half of the week. Regardless, it seemed quite appropriate. [wink]

I was quite buggered from work, and we had an hour and a half until everyone else was going to show up. Perfect opportunity to have a few drinks, though I was worried about passing out if I drank too much, given how tired I already was.

It was really good to see everyone again, everyone being a relative statement. Stewart, Chris, Bonnie and Jazz. Funny how the ex-employees outweighed the existing employees. It's the first time I've seen Chris since he left, so it was great catching up. As his blog entry (Where Are They Now?) states, it hardly felt like we hadn't seen each other in 3 months.

Was a lot of fun, and a lot of laughs. Good times.
