Memorial Day, Schmemorial Day


Some sweet lake where I am not
Out of the many things to do this weekend, memorial day weekend that is, I have so many choices. I could chill at the house, chill at the house and watch tv, chill at the house and play ps2, or chill at the house and mess around with the website. Notice that in that last, what appeared to be a run-on sentence, I didn't say anything about going to the lake. I didn't say anything about leaving Wichita Falls or answering my cell phone, which is irrationally ringing off the walls. The closest I will get to a lake this weekend consists of my staring at this nice, little picture above. But with the undeniable wisdom of the "if you're given a lemon, make lemonade" revelation, let me tell you what I am not missing out on. I'm not missing out on a snake, spider, or other species with teeth biting my leg, arm, or both. I'm not missing out on the possibility of algae consuming my body and the probability of a slow, painful death. Wait....someone just called. And I'm going to the lake.

The Blog Revolution


For so long I have wondered what all the hype was about blogging. I started my own little website about 4 years ago on aol's free webpage, but I thought that was too restricting with what I wanted to do with it (no not porn for all the perverts) so I made a free sites at geocities. Soon after, I began using Microsoft Frontpage and began hurtlester.com. There is still a lot of work to be done and it and hasn't reached the capacity that I envisioned it, but it has come a long way. Time is the biggest factor for not being able to update and work on it like I used to, but with the new internet fad comes a little motivation to juice up the site. I will be working both sites simultaneously hopefully, at least until I am diagnosed with carpal tunnel. Come regularly or I will fight you.
