Hey Jen! Your dad is here, hurry up and come home!

When I was walking to work this morning there was a weird guy with a giant furry ear flappy hat walking slowly in front of me. Because of the snow I wasn't able to pass him so I crossed the street. While I crossed the street he kept moving forward so he got a little ahead of me. I eventually caught up again, but when I did he completely stopped walking and turned to look at me. It was kinda weird.

It is really nice out today, smells like Spring. That is one of my favourite smells: morning while winter is trying to change to Spring. I hope it succeeds because I don't really like winter and I want all the snow to be gone and it to be warm enough out to not need a coat.

Major update today, not that it is anything normal people would notice. Now the default page will only show the current month's entries and you will see a link at the bottom which will take you to the previous month. Also, if there are no entries it will give you an appropriate message. If you are interested you can type your own query string to get a specific set of entries. The format is: ?date=YYYY-MM or ?date=YYYY where YYYY and MM represent the month and year respectively. If you make enter ?date=showall then you will get all available entries. I also changed a few colours and some spacing.

Doing laundry sucks, you have to keep remembering it. I want to go to bed now but I have to wait for my clothes to dry. Grrrr.

Jen asked me today if her bread was bad. I think it probably was but i told her it was ok. She is eating it now.

Jen asked me to write her a story today while I was at work. She didn't like it because it had a disgusting rodent in it. I say that she sucks. Here is the story:

Once upon a time there was a mouse, except it wasn't ordinary, it had an extra long tail. And it could curl the tail up into a springy thing and bounce around on it it a cute sorta way. Then one autumn day the mouse realized that winter was on its way so he found a nice apartment to stay in while it was cold outside. He figured that after the winter was over he would use his amazing tail powers to give the people living in the apartment each the one thing they most desired as a way of thanking them for letting him stay there.

So he made a nest in a cupboard in the kitchen and started looking for food. He came upon a black plastic thing with some peanut butter on it. Now, the mouse was smart, and knew that when food was left out like that it normally meant it was a trap. But he also knew that all mouse traps were wooden, not plastic, so he figured that it was probably a gift from the people who lived in the house.

Unfortunately he was wrong, the trap killed him and the people threw him and his magical tail out in the trash. The End.

Look, its a real update! Work was unique today, I had stuff to do (that's good), but it was hard and I didn't know how to do it (that's bad). Also by the end of the day I had a really nasty headache (that's bad). I did manage to figure out something with regard to the difficult work, and I think it may go better tomorrow (that's good).

I get my econ midterm mark back tonight, should be interesting, but I am not in the mood for the accompanying 3 hour lecture. I sorta just want to sleep. I have been staying up late too much to work on this site. Bah!

TODO: - define and write a dtd for my xml; - sort entries, no need to enter in any order; - make parser work if file is bad; - archive previous months, only display current; - make real sections; - make text box like entry tool for updating; - hidden function for personal notes; - comments!;

This is a test (3) of my new XML journal, maybe it will work.

This test has two paragraphs, fun!
