2003.04.26 rarin to go:
woohoo! i finally found a plugin for WinAmp3 that will let me update the MP3 of the moment thing. (look at the bottom of the most recent post, and/or my webcam "portable"). i had switched to exclusively using WinAmp3 for a while, then i decided i wanted to do the MP3otM thing, realized there weren't any decent plugins to do that with WinAmp3, so i had to switch back to WinAmp 2.x. (which has just been updated to 2.91, for those of you still using the 2.x version). anyway, i finally found What's Playing today, and did some quick hacking to get it working with the existing javascript code. When i get a chance later, i'll probably move it totally over to PHP scripts, but it's working right now. yaay!
tomorrow (today, technically–the 26th) is the day when Sara finally runs the last leg of the Louisville Triple Crown–the miniMarathon. i know she's excited (mainly that it'll all be over soon and she can quit putting herself through hell) to finally finish. i just hope she doesn't hurt her knee any worse than she's already apparently hurt it. in any event, i'm sure she's going to do well.
and, (strange, this was supposed to be a quick update) my sister got in town on Wednesday night and has been staying at the house. it's been pretty wild to see my sister pregnant and to be talking with her about all this stuff, watching her, basically fawning over her to make sure she's got everything she needs. it's pretty cool.
later today, after the race and breakfast, we'll all (my sister, my girlfriend, myself) be driving down to my parent's. this'll be the first time Sara's met my parents, and though she's nervous, i know my parents are going to love her. plus, with my sis being in from France, and pregnant, i think they'll have bigger things to worry about than giving my girlfriend a hard time. i guess we'll find out though, eh?

matt…why on earth would your parents give her a hard time? they're probably ecstatic that you're with a girl and thinking you're around the corner from getting married and popping out babies like a salad shooter.

Oh, hard times on the prediction for Sara's knee. I heard from Kelly that she blew it out pretty bad…
Javan said:
Brian has definately got the right idea… well, at least before he got to the salad shooter part…

but…that's the best part!

if you guys ever compare having babies to a salad shooter again…. 😉

well, i don't know about babies, but yeah, i really wasn't expecting my parents to give her a hard time anyway.
she did blow her knee out at the race, but she was still able to finish, which was good. she nearly decided to go see a doctor about the knee though, so it was obviously quite painful for a few days. i *think* she's mainly gotten over it now.
oh, and i claim no responsibility for the salad shooter comment. you see what we have to put up with around here. 😉
