Monday. Four hours of work. I'm prepped for tomorrow's meeting. I expect it shall be an interesting one.

Since I was only in the office for a few hours today, I came back to the hotel afterwards and did some work on my web site. You probably won't notice a lot of change just at the moment, but I have made some significant changes. Firstly, I have cleaned up the code that I use to handle the pictures menu. In the original version, there was a lot of rereading of index files; now that has been reduced two a maximum of two file reads. The other change has been to add functionality for displaying comments. I haven't turned this functionality on yet, because I still have to write the code to handle adding comments. That's going to be a little trickier, because I haven't yet worked with forms under PHP. I'm not expecting too much difficulty, but I need to do some reading to get up to speed with it all.

Last night I finished reading Freakonomics. It was quite interesting. That was pretty much the limit of my excitement for the evening.

This weekend I have to take my car in for an oil change. And it needs to have a good clean. I expect that these two activities alone will hamper my ability to get a lot of other stuff done. I should have a check to pick up when I get back into town, so I should be one step ahead of my mid-month bills. Other activities for this weekend: Kris' birthday, seeing Serenity with John, watching post-season Braves games.
