Oh yeah, the blog

It's not that I've forgotten the blog--it's just that regurgitating my adventures in and obsession with World of Warcraft hasn't changed since the last post. WoW still garners a significant portion of my life and, for the most part, it has been rather enjoyable.

The downsides are, of course, lack of human contact, lack of sleep, and lack of ability to stop thinking about WoW for more than an hour or two. ;)

Anyway, I've also been writing a new PHP-based gallery system for use in various projects. One of which happens to be integrated with the Natural Hazards Hawaii site I just re-launched. Fortunately, the content provider has been very receptive to suggestions and after an initial dubious reaction to the self-service gallery system, has been excited about its capabilities. Time will tell as to how extensive the gallery system will turn out to be, but simplicity from the users' and visitors' perspectives is a key goal (as it should be with any self-service site).

In other non-sequitur and miscellaneous news, today is a much needed reprieve from the vog; congratulations to Angel, Ernie and Avalon; I've almost completely stopped coughing from the december illness; and I've finally tasted a decent Malbec since the extraordinary deLormier 2000--I just need to do some maintenance on my wine log.
