puttering

  • taxes done at about 10pm pacific time last night.  so what's the irs mean by the 15th anyway ?  given geography-free webfiling, anything this side of the international dateline should work.
  • the thing about 1099 work is that on tax day my bank account feels violated.
  • well, some more funds will be forthcoming: will start in on some maintenance work, same old customer, on monday.  probably a couple of months' worth.
  • which means i need to shift my cycle back to "normal".  was up & out today running errands by 9am, not too bad.
  • i check mail every week or two.  i mean the us postal kind.  buried in there today is an auto insurance payment that bounced back - "inadequate addressing" the yellow sticker proclaims.  sure enough, i forgot the street adress.  doh!  if it doesn't have a keyboard, i don't know how to operate it.  not that having a keyboard is sufficient, just seemingly necessary.  this time i use the pre-addressed envelope.
  • i keep trying to find an atom publishing protocol endpoint in community server (2007); doesn't appear to have been invented.  i'll have to see how cs2008 is provisioned in this respect, seeing as how it just got released.  gotta wait for the bugs to flush out, though.  sure, i could code my own... or just roll my own twitter aggregator / blog poster.
  • why atompub ?  because i want to use loudtwitter, that's why.  which is the only way i'd want to use twitter, as a way of accumulating micro-posts throughout the day.  friendfeed looks like a good way to track one's own stuff as well.  wonder if i could hook it into arbitrary forums i post to.  maybe i'd be better off rolling against this instead.
  • yeah, my "history project" of five years ago is getting close to being a reality, not that i personally had anything to do with it.  synchronicity in thought, but not in deed.
  • dang, i was reading a book, and somehow just stopped fifty pages from the end.  weather warmed up again; sitting out back & (b) sipping is the way to go.
  • y'know, the xo's extended wifi range means that an unsecured access point is almost always within reach.
