Random Craziness in the Game of Life

It's been another week since I made any changes to the website. Last week was crazy because my car died. I had to take time to buy a new car and get rid of the old one. I wound up donating it to the Cars for Wishes, which supports the Make a Wish Foundation.

The other thing I realized is that I may only be adding content to the blog for a while. I'm going to have to find time to start reading books and watching movies. It's not a big deal, since I already do that. What's changed is that I need to keep in mind what I'm going to write for the website as I read. For example, I was re-reading "The Complete Sherlock Holmes" when I started working on this website. I just finshed "The Sign of Four" when it hit me that I didn't pay enough attention to write anything worth reading for this website. I don't have it in me to start the book over again right now.

Instead, I've dug out my Harry Potter books. The books are what inspired this website in the first place, so it seemed like a good place to start. Maybe after a few years, I can get something different out of these books.

In the mean time, I have made progress behind the scenes. I've re-installed Linux on my laptop. I'll probably start switch to using it for working on the website soon. I've also started looking at how to add Disqus for commenting and I've started drawing my menus. I think I need to take a step back and focus on one thing at a time to make sure I'm getting something visible done on the website.
