Browser Wars

My job requires me to design for many different web browsers, I was recently informed of a fantastic resource – http://browsershots.org/ – which takes multiple screenshots of your web site via different browsers. Its really cool!

Columbia Botanical Garden

without comments

Quick trip to the Botanical Gardens – we also experienced our first viewing of a ‘Skink’ which wasn’t particularly nice – kind of like a snake and a lizard formed into one monstrous creature.

Our House is Unsold

without comments

Unfortunatley, the people who are buying our house, it seems like they have retracted their offer. They have cold feet. But what is meant to be, is meant to be :) We’ll just get a higher offer come in.

Scrabble

without comments

Jenny and I are addicted to Scrabble on Facebook, I am currently in the lead with wins V loss – but I am sure that will change soon enough. This weekend has been fantastic weather, and Sunday we are hitting the Zoo hard. Going to the botanical gardens and hopefully see some deadly creatures, its only been a couple of days since I’ve seen a deadly creature, its been too long – this is South Carolina after all.

We sold our house in VA!!

without comments

Can’t believe it! But we are closing by the end of the month, or around then. The housing market is pretty feeble, so somehow we got through that. We are very pleased.

Facebook

without comments

I have been having a lot of fun with Facebook recently – at first I was skeptical, because I think MySpace utterly sucks, I hate the user pages on them. They look messy and unreadable. However, facebook has a nice clean layout, and many of the people know are on the system – so I’ve reconnected with many old friends – especially from England. Jenny signed up too!

Speed Racer and Weather

without comments

Nick has been wanting to watch Speed Racer for quite some time; we did – for about 30 minutes, until he wanted to leave the cinema. He was wanting to leave, and race his tricycle like speed racer. So we left, and now we’re sitting in the amazing 70 degree weather, as the suns sets, and the cool breeze brushes over our hair – ah the sprinklers just turned on, time to sign off.
