Testing, testing

I decided to start documenting my desktop screenshots again. It's always interesting to look at them, and since I enjoy it so much, I ought to keep them around even after they've outlived their usefulness. So, an archive.

Someone wrote this morning and asked if I'd considered the Wearing Wool calendar. I did, but I decided it was sort of on the order of of the goddess ones--wonderful and lovely, but a little too wonderful for the office, if you know what I mean. It's a calendar produced by a knitting and spinning group in Maine, and the women are photographed wearing their wool, sometimes just socks, sometimes shawls or sweaters, and nothing else. So, yes, I've seen it, and I ought to order one anyway, probably, but probably not for work.

The whole reason I'm having such trouble with a calendar for work is that, for one thing, it's right in front of my desk, so I look at it all the time, and for another, I loved last year's calendar so much. It was "Norton's Journey"--Norton from The Cat Who Went to Paris--and it was just wonderful. I don't remember what the year before that was, but it was probably a Phantom Menace one. If I had been able to find a Fellowship of the Ring one this year, I probably would have gone with it, but by the time I looked, they were all gone.

So, in retrospect, trying to deny my obsession was probably worse than just giving in to it.

I've been intending to re-do some of the way this site works for awhile, and finally did part of it--made the sidebar and the footer into includes so I don't have to change them on every page every time I change something. The change should be transparent, but I could easily have missed something, so if you notice anything wonky, just let me know. Also, the extensions of most of the files will change to "shtml" which only means that -- well, I don't know what it means. They have to be that way so I can use include files, since I don't have the capability of using .asp at this site.

"Wonky." That's a technical term.
