new features

2026-08-08

Not much really happened today. I went to cracker barrel this morning and was coerced by my dad to go to costco and petsmart with him. Actually, something did happen. I had a terrible eating experience at cracker barrel. My eggs had a hair in them. My "fresh" fruit was frozen. My steak was overcooked. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt since it was a busy saturday morning, but they better not slip up again..

In other words, I've added a few new features to the site. Now, I have an admin panel that I can post from so that I don't have to make new html files. Basically, this site is now completely portable and I can post from anywhere -- no more droughts. I also added a "now" page where i can talk about when im currently reading, watching, listening to, and working on. Simple stuff that doesn't really need an entire post. I'll probably update that once a day as well, but really only the working on section should be fluid. People can send pictures to me now too! Just be careful to not include all of your metadata with your pictures if you want to stay anonymous. Some people have already taken advantage of this and have sent me some fascinating pictures. Speaking of pictures, I went ahead and added dates to ones i currently have in the picture page and reordered them so that the most recent ones are first. see my dad.

There is also a new about page.

Im quite happy with what I have now, but if you guys have any suggestions, feel free to contact me however you'd like.

I'm super excited to go back to school. I've missed my friends, but the main thing drawing me back is the pace of life. Everything feels so -- stagnant -- at home. The days kind of roll over and bleed into one another. Feel a little purposeless.

Tomorrow I'm (hopefully) going to eat some lunch and hang out with some of my friends who are going back to school a bit earlier than me. I'll miss them when im at school, but I plan on visiting them somewhat regularly. Maybe they'll come up to purdue once or twice too.

well thats all i got for now. see ya!
