Bleh.. I feel terrible.

Yeah I feel like crap. My heart has been act­ing funny the past cou­ple days. Its that darn mitral valve pro­lapse crap I think. Stu­pid defec­tive heart. Oh well. It nor­mally calms down after a few days.

Yup my life is dull. Been work­ing on the Fake Name Gen­er­a­tor some more. Its a fun lit­tle project. Up to 11 name sets and 14 coun­tries. And I almost have Ger­many done (Tak­ing WAY longer than expected. Dumb Ger­many and their weird tele­phone sys­tem…). Prob­a­bly the most fun has been learn­ing about other coun­tries. For exam­ple, Ice­land gave up on area codes a few years back. I guess they decided it was kind of point­less when they don’t even have half a mil­lion cit­i­zens. So instead they use a 7-digit num­ber. Found a cool lit­tle grid that explains which num­bers are which. Looks like not even half the pos­si­ble num­bers are allo­cated for use. Crazyness.

Which reminds me: I hate Inter­net Explorer. It is such a crappy browser. Why would any­one pro­gram a browser to pad a form by default? Thats just retarded. I bring this up because I took a look at FNG using IE and the lay­out was botched because stu­pid IE decided it wanted to pad the form ele­ments. So I had to mod­ify the CSS to make it look right. Not a huge has­sle, but it is some­thing that shouldn’t have to be done.

So I’m almost done watch­ing Androm­eda. Man that show sucks. I loved it as a kid, but I don’t know why. The plot sucks and the dia­logue is ter­ri­ble. But sea­son 5 is quite dif­fer­ent than the first 4 sea­sons, and I’m inter­ested to see where it goes, so I’ll suf­fer through and fin­ish the series. I think I’ll start High­lander next… Or Simp­sons. That’d keep me busy for a while.

Just in case you think I’m a lazy slack who watches TV all day, I really don’t WATCH most of these shows.. Gen­er­ally I just lis­ten while I’m work­ing on some­thing. Gen­er­ally I’ll watch like the first few min­utes to get the story line and then maybe flip back dur­ing the cli­max of the episode. Most TV isn’t enter­tain­ing enough to actu­ally WATCH from begin­ning to end. And in the rare event that I do watch a full episode, it is gen­er­ally more of a break so my mind can step back and look at what­ever I am work­ing on from a dif­fer­ent perspective.
