I’ve been spending more time on my Harley site as of late, and neglecting the looks of this page. As it’s just a journal for now (lacking photos and such), I’m not that worried about it. I did upload a picture I took for the header, but that’s about all I’ve done as far as customizing.

Naturally, after doing that, I’m getting a weird error, which you may have seen:

TypeError: element.ownerDocument.defaultView has no porperties.

Something got screwed up!

Ah well. Wouldn’t be a revamping (no matter how minor) without something screwing up.

-edit-

Well, the error described above is only happening on Firefox 2.0 from what I can tell. And I borked the theme so badly, I re-uploaded so that photo is not mine.

I should just leave well enough alone…

Was doing the daily morning routine of going through email and reading feeds when I came across an article at digg.com. I found it amusing so I grabbed a screenshot. See if you can figure out why…

As a follow up to the last post, I thought I’d post some pictures of my little bathroom project I’ve started. A while back we noticed that some of the tiles along the back wall were loose. Naturally, we ignored it. After a few of the tiles popped off and we got a good look at the drywall back there (yes, drywall, not greenboard or concrete board, but friggin drywall), we knew we couldn’t ignore it any longer.

As it’s all drywall back there, and we did have a couple of other problematic spots, we decided to rip it all out and set it to rights.

As you can see it’s quite the mess. There’s also black gunk, which I’m guessing is mold, growing on some of the boards. Those might need to be replaced, not sure yet.

And no, the frog isn’t part of the demolition. The kids found him in the wife’s garden taking shelter in a broken, upside down flowerpot. I thought he was cute so decided to add him.

This past weekend was supposed to be a camping weekend, a ‘no-holds-barred-lots-of-alcohol-and-guns-and-stupidity-not-to-mention-a-stray-boob-or-two’ kind of camping weekend. I’ve mentioned before about going camping along with this group of people. Quite a lot of fun.

Unfortunately, it rained all freakin’ weekend, so we bagged it, and instead I spent the weekend doing laundry and starting to replace the tile in my shower. Talk about an exciting alternative for camping! I had So MUCH FUN!

/sarcasm

Yeah, I was pretty much a grouch the whole weekend. Naturally, yesterday afternoon and today are absolutely gorgeous. And I’ll be spending it indoors. Working and then at home popping more tile off the shower wall. Rapture!

Nice theme…I wish it was mine. I like the citrus option the best so far.

Things are just crazy here. Work work work, that’s about all it seems like I’m doing lately. This coming Friday will be the first day off I’ve had in nearly a month. Between the full-time job and bartending, my schedule has been full. Even my dreams are starting to fill up, mostly with work crap that for some reason, I just can’t stop thinking about.

Perhaps it’s because layoffs are coming at the end of the month. And I’m 95% certain my departmen is on the chopping block. And because I’ve not had to search for a new job in almost 12 years. And I’m only slightly freaking out.

I’m trying to stay positive, but when your boss, your boss’s boss, and even your boss’s boss’s boss (get that?) are starting to look for jobs, the outlook is deemed bleak. I’m trying to make the best of the time; I’ve signed up for an AJAX class at the company’s expense that will hopefully look good on a resume. I’ve tried signing up for a Flash on as well, as I’ve been given more work that requires Flash, but they’re not offering any at this time.

I’ve been glancing at the job postings on a sporadic basis, getting a feel for what’s out there. I imagine I’ll start submitting my resume a week before the layoff date. I figure if I’m getting laid off, I want the package (however slim that may be), and don’t want to jump shit unnecessarily.

But I really really don’t want to get laid off.
