 well, yeah.  there&#8217;s a project at work involving a whack of scanning and when i told them they really didn&#8217;t want to use the old, crappy scanner for that task (where perfection is paramount) they ordered a brand new one and told me i could take it home to do the work in my off hours.  of course, while i have such a beast in my possession, i&#8217;m scanning all of <em>my<\/em> photographs.   i figure it&#8217;ll be fun to have them all on a couple cds and instead of having to haul out the trunk and find the box with the right collection of prints, i can just pull them up on the computer.  although, after last night, i&#8217;m starting to think i bit off a whole lot more than i can chew.<br \/>\ni finally finished <cite><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0312864590\/ref=nosim\/albinogiraffe-20\">the crossroads of twilight<\/a><\/cite> the other day.  two days late to the library and two weeks wasted.  dear me, that book pissed me off.  seven-hundred pages covering 36 hours in the lives of the characters.  a set-up book.  there wasn&#8217;t even a payoff at the end.  nothing remotely interesting happened.  that&#8217;s it, robert jordan can kiss my ass (until such time as he finished the series and then, i suppose, i&#8217;ll see what the hell his point was).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>last night i dreamt that i was on an alaskan cruise. there was a mystery involved and before it was all over bruce allen (bryan adam&#8217;s long-time manager &#038; vancouver well-known) was trying his very best to seduce me. by the time the alarm started squawking at me, i had decided i had made the <span class=\"ellipsis\">&hellip;<\/span> <span class=\"more-link-wrap\"><a href=\"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/everything_and\/\" class=\"more-link\"><span>Read More &rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1471","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-words"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1471","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1471"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1471\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1471"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1471"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1471"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
