went to sushi with merlin last night. tim was there too.

i’d totally forgotten how yummy their live scallops were. wow.

it was good to see merlin again, and to hear he’s likely to move back to the bay area soon. that’d be great!

i cannot find a decent blogging client for Mac OS X. i just want something that’ll work simply, quickly, and without having to type tags. i don’t mind typing tags. but i’d like to set up blogs on plambert.net for others, some of whom will mind. and the tags get pretty monotonous after a while. i want command-key shortcuts, darnit.

ecto comes close, but fails with the latest WordPress in some odd ways. sigh

so i gave into my baser urges today. and i drove to mcdonald’s for lunch. i brought it back to my desk, and before eating it, i looked it up on their nutrition info web page.

they didn’t give me info on the 24oz. Coca Cola so i used the 16oz. instead. it was still frightening.

i am truly surprised i’m not dead yet.

Testing my new weblog. I’ve tried a thousand different packages, and this seems closest to what I want. Without writing something myself. Which I may do anyway. Whee. Hopefully, it’ll be more configurable than LiveJournal…
