Anybody get the feeling…

… that New Orleans is Fucked?

Missing Link

I just realized something while going thru my sister’s facebook pics.  My kids look less alike then my sister and I do and they have the same two parents.

I need to have another kid and maybe create something that fills the gap.

Strange Day

I felt something today that I haven’t felt in a while.  Not since before I started taking anti-depressants.  And it’s called a bunch of things.  Low self-esteem, embarassment, a sense of caring what others think of me (too much), and feeling overly paranoid about what it is they’re thinking.   I was, however, successful at shaking it off.  But it’s strange that I noticed right away I hadn’t felt that way in a long long time.   It really is nice when you can be happy with who and what you are and not care very much what other’s opinions of you are.   I guess the pills helped me in that department more than I knew.   I still wouldn’t start taking them again tho.  At least now I can get excited about things and I feel more normal.

Live+Press 2.1.0 released

I’m happy to announce that this new version of Live+Press is available a week ahead of schedule.  I thought about tacking “beta” to the end but the .1 is good enough.

Although I’m sure there are bugs waiting to be discovered (because my testing is OK but not extensive), it is light years better than the previous version.  See the change log below to see what’s new.

Available here.
