I guess I could mention that we’re having some irritating problems with our milk delivery. The wrong kind of milk one week, and then the driver didn’t even bother to stop another week. But that seems awfully boring, especially compared to my Great Adventures In Contraception…but there’s nothing new there….
\n
\nWhat is new, really….<\/p>\n
As of yesterday, I got my first searches related to a certain fucking retard who thinks that ‘shit, this site is unreadable’ means ‘OMGLOLURLUSERSLOL’ or…whatever the fuck it translates into for him.<\/p>\n
17,132 hits after it promised it would leave and never come back, and I caused it to be redirected over to another website entirely. What can I say about it that I haven’t already?<\/p>\n
I’m nearly done with the Left Behind series. It took me longer than I expected because of…well, stuff. There was the iPodFuckingBroke Setback, and the WTFNotInOrder? setback…which I should probably explain….<\/p>\n
See, the iPod, it does not understand that Audiobooks can be in mp3 format, if you happen to, say, encode them yourself from a CD that you happen to own, or…something. It was .m4b. It’s a picky little bitch.<\/p>\n
Also, fucking audiobooks always seem to come in billions of teeny little files, instead of larger, more logical bookmarkable files. That’s irritating, too. So, I had to find a way to merge them, and then convert them — and, of course, iTunes only does the second part. And that seems to be the only way I can do it…fucking iTunes won’t let me pull in anything I’ve converted to .m4ANYTHING with, say, Xilisoft, which seems to be much happier about not consuming my entire fucking machine while converting stuff….<\/p>\n
So…meh. I find a way to merge them, but discover quickly that some of the things merged all…backwards. So I have to go remerge them, and then, of course, reconvert them. And, because I can’t convert directly to m4b, I have to rename the files from m4a to m4b, which is kinda irritating, but there are ways to mass-rename things….<\/p>\n
So…nearly done with Armageddon, nearly on to The Glorious Appearing. I can only imagine what everyone’s going to sound like in the last book, because…wow, it’s been a real surprise party full of transgenders with mismatched voices in the last few books. What with Count Carpathia [or Car-PATH-ia] going from The Count to The Girly-Man With RubberBanded Balls from one book to the next. And Godfather Fortunato turning into…I have no fucking clue….<\/p>\n
And could we possibly settle on a pronunciation for Dtztsziyiaon Ben Judah’s name one of these books? He’s not in direct competition with the word ‘majgickyquwe’ for variations in either spelling or pronunciation here….<\/p>\n
After this series is done, I’m not sure what I’ll listen to next. Maybe I should switch over to music for a while, and listen to that while I get work done, because…wow, there’s lots of that….<\/p>\n
I’ve just noticed that 1. there’s a storm coming in, 2. my iPod needs charging, and 3. my head kinda hurts. Also, 4. I’ve run out of things to say, and, possibly, 5. I really wish my lawn would just stop pretending to be the gateway to hell and suck those annoying kids into its firey depths, because there’s really no good reason for it to be 106 out there on days when it’s only in the 80s anywhere else otherwise….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
