Driving downtown this morning I got a spec of sand in my eye. It was causing havoc with my contact lens. Of course, I have 30 day lenses in for about 120 days w/o ever removing them. I tried to remove and put glasses on last weekend to let eyes breathe but have lost my glasses in the move.
Anyhow, I got downtown and finally took out the contact, but could not find anyone with solution. Normally, water works fine, but it just wasn't flushing things out properly. I finally got someone to give me a little Systane eye dropper. I flushed my eye and no avail it still hurt like a bitch.
I took a bottle of water, removed the cap, placed lens in cap and poured water on the lens. I went back to work with one eye shut (felt like a pirate) for about an hour or so. Then went and re-flushed my eye and re-instered the lens. All seems well in the world now and my eye is moist and happy.

First thing that came to mind. Im a sucker for stupid things like this. Damn you Vox. Damn you!
So for the past few days my mighty mouse has just been acting up. Sometimes I would lose the ability to scroll down. I thought maybe Colloquy might just be acting up as it has issues a lot. This morning was the last straw as it just would NOT scroll down.
So like any employee of a company with good irc channel, I asked my fellow geeks.
[09:16am] derek: has anyone seen a mighty mouse freak out and allow you to scroll up, but not scroll down?
[09:16am] ruinous: yep
[09:16am] ruinous: well known problem
[09:16am] derek: is there a hack or a fix
[09:16am] ruinous: to fix, turn upside down and rub vigorously
[09:16am] ruinous: (i'm serious)
[09:16am] derek: at least this mouse has no balls or that would be wrong
[09:17am] ruinous: Just Rub the Nub!
[09:18am] derek: yes that fixed it
[09:18am] derek: thank you sir

It has been a long while since I have had a relaxing half hour. After a very stressful kickoff to the Winter 2007 soccer season that started with an 8:00am game in Fountain Hills (60 miles away) got home and did some BBQing. I love to cook especially on the old BBQ!! While eating a juicy burger I started watching the Seahawks vs Cowboys game. At half time my channel surfing diverted me to a seminar at USC on Blogging vs. Print and the future. It inspired me when turning the game back on to go search for some new blog feeds to read.
I happened to stumble across Seth Godin's blog and a post about being T-Shirt worthy. There was another digg article about top ten tech cities. So, it spurred a goal for 2007 in me. Make Integrum T-Shirt worthy. So thenewugly, if you are reading this start designing a t-shirt worth wearing! Local tech groups beware... by the end of the year you will want an Integrum t-shirt!
