Another day

Another client(Drivel). Again, it doesn't quite seem to get some basics. Looks like an lj client when you get right down to it. There was another client somewhere around here that I also poked at. I'll probably post from that one in a bit. Still, nothing quite hitting the sweet spot I'm looking for. I don't know why I'm fussing so much, seeing as the only posts I've been making to this page have been posts about what clients I want to use to post here. And tbh, I'm not sure how much I feel like posting on here in the first place. It's freaking decrepit.

So yeah

NGL, I'm looking into a different blog service. Possibly more than one blogthing. I don't really know. This just isn't doing it for me. Maybe it's a client issue. Or maybe it's just anhedonia.

Similarly thinking about decoupling some of my interconnected social networkingish things.

Hrm

So I suppose there's something to be said for this client. Not much mind you. It's rudimentary at best, and as far as i can tell it doesn't handle multiple accounts/blogs at all.

It does however speak blogger, which the other client I'm fooling with doesn't seem to be able to do. Thing is, it barely does that either. It doesn't have any of the extra features one would expect from a blog/blogger client.

Tags for one. They exist! So do drafts. And previous entries, for editing.

So, wth, man? Do I have to write something myself?

Blahblahblah

I know. I haven't posted in a while. I warned people that would happen. I wasn't joking.

I have a few journals I post to more frequently than this one. Part of that is ease of use, since I've got nice little plugins and apps, so I don't have to screw around with logins nearly as much. In this case, the fact that I'm usually logged in with a different account figures heavily into why I don't bother. It just doesn't help that I have to play weird games just to be able to read email and post here. So, it might "change hands" relatively soon. Good times.

Still that might not help. What can I say? I generally don't have a lot to say. Unless I do -- then I say a lot. Since I don't particularly have much of a "topic" going here, I don't necessarily see myself looking up more topical material for posts. It's also not a functional journal, so there's no reason to ramble on about the things that relate to the functional aspect of the journal.

However, I might have some things to rant or weigh in on, which will find it's way here. Maybe. One thing that's been coming up in my life frequently lately are matters of cultural identity. Maybe I can use this journal to hash some of that out. Then again, maybe I won't. Oops?

Ugh

Seriously, I need to work on my computer. I've been wickedly lax with my updating. Fiance has burned the new kubuntu install disks, as we're going to just make a jump in versions.

After that, maybe I should get off my ass and get my headset working again. You know, since people have bitched at me for not being able to talk on Ventrilo. I'd say guildies, but the guild self-destructed. Apparently people don't like having to read during Kara runs. Can't blame them. lol To explain: I could hear them, but they couldn't hear me. So my answers were typed out. Good times. :P

Also, amaroK has been acting funny, although I haven't really bothered figuring out some of what's going on. Right now, the lyrc plugin is crashing on me. I could probably look it up... pssh. Let's just say: Lazy.

Okay, so.

You, yeah you. Zippy. I blame you.

So, this thing? Probably not going to get a lot of use. I'll be honest about that. This isn't my first, and I've always been bad about that. Oh well. Even my phone-photo blog hasn't seen much use lately. Although, at current, it's in part due to my phone being weird about sending the damn photos.

Who am I? I go by many handles, unlike Zippy there. I can think of roughly sixteen offhand that I've used over the years. Six that I still regularly use.

So, names are useless in that regard. I am: a programmer (or a cleverly disguised wanna-be), photographer (again...), horror movie buff (yep, you guessed it), gamer (... catching on yet?), artist (uh, not very cleverly disguised... at all), and writer (same).

I have tits and tatts. I drink rum and tequila straight up--not together. I don't like vodka much. Whiskey is fine by me, but it depends on the kind. I'd bleed Guinness if I could without dying. I smoke. I find both men and women sexually attractive. I'm engaged. That said, I'm passively interested in finding a girlfriend. Yeah, it sounds childish, but "lover" sounds too much like a daytime soap, or romance novel.

If I don't know you, I don't give a shit what you think about me (so long as I meet my own standards), but reserve the right to get angry anyway. In fact, I like that particular right. If I do know you, and like you, I probably care too much.
