How'd the interview go, tweeze? What part of CA is it? Hopefully near good surfing. My kid's hospital looks at the ocean, and he tries to surf as much as possible. What a lifestyle.

So I won't. If anyone especially wants to hear it I would talk about it but maybe it should be PMs? I don't think anyone cares that much, though.

It rained steadily last night but was drying and partly cloudy by this morning. It is dry enough now. The weather is actually quite nice. I like watching the big clouds float by. I guess I am somewhat of a dreamer.

So like lumpy Tobasco

Once upon a time when my digestive tract was younger I ate a lot of hot stuff. My mom's chili was just kinda hot. The last few times I tried it, it is was brutal from my tonsils on down. I was almost swigging Maalox bite for bite with the chili. My innards turned into a wimp.

Welp I got my tool boxes all back in order. I am usually very very picky about them but have been a slacker of late. I emptied three large chest boxes, cleaned and put everything back in it's place.

I am making one of my computers at work earn it's keep. I have a PhotoShop batch running on 85 images. Each image is 1.6 Gigs. It takes it 22 minutes to open the image apply a color curve and apply a unsharp mask and then save it to a new folder with an appended name. It will take 32 hours or so for it to run through them.

The customer is going to choke on them. They insist on an image with super high resolution covering an area of 6,000 ft x 6,000 ft, so that is what they will get. We aim to please.
