look not with the eyes, but with the mind
it occurs to me that the headaches i’ve been having recently may be a sign i’m overdue for an eye exam.
but i hope i don’t need new glasses. there are few things in life i dread more than shopping for frames.
i guess that should make something like the relens service appealing, but i don’t even particularly care for the frames i have now.
i put my old sony vaio pcg-z505r up for auction on ebay. $300 buy-it-now price, for the eager. there’s a photo set of the laptop and accessories.
i’m working on getting rid of various things around my apartment that i don’t need. next will probably be my old 17" imac. i may try listing that on craiglist to sell it locally, and not have to deal with shipping it.
jeremy zawodny says that “trackback is dead” and jason kottke says “so long, technorati”, which are both observations i find fairly interesting.
but not so interesting that i have much of anything to add. i don’t get into the stats/links/whatever navel-gazing side of blogging very often. it’s been nearly a couple of years since i’ve even bothered to run stats on the logs for this site.
the only stat that really matters most to me are the number of cool people i’m connecting with, and if they’re just reading, it’s not a very meaningful connection.
