Poetry reading and more
Posted on August 16, 2005
I was invited to be the featured poety at "Poets at the Hill," a monthly poetry reading at the Hill Ave Library in Pasadena. I had a good time meeting members from pathetic.org and listening to the various readings. We went for some pie and socializing at Coco's afterward. Thank you to Michelle A for inviting me and for all those that went out of their way to come out for it.
I confess... I'm a music junkie. That is I love music. I also collect albums and such. So much that between my CD collection and my now growing purchase list from ITMS, I've filled my 40 gig ipod and have had to delete some albums off iTunes that I have sitting in my cd collection and I don't find the time to listen to. Out of curiosity today I went to the ITMS purchase history page to see exactly how much I've bought off of there. As it turns out I've spent more money there than I did on my 3rd gen iPod. :x
Speaking of music, I'm going to see the White Stripes on Thursday :-) Oh and have you checked out Kings of Leon yet? No? Go check out their first album. It's good stuff! Also worth checking out is the now integrated Last.fm and Audioscrobbler. I really like the new design theme and progress they have made.
Work as been busy but good. I've been working on a project writing the SOAP based backend for a handheld application that will integrate into one of our customers existing web based applications. It's been pretty cool implementing them and I have all sorts of good ideas (I think) for upcoming Framewerk technologies using Soap.
sIFRFonts.com isn't doing too well. I've not had time to really spend a lot of time populating the font database. Maybe I'll take a day or two once Framewerk goes beta to add a couple hundred fonts to it.
