A Little Princess

I had to take a break from my amazing project to feed my little girl.  I have four beautiful girls and a wife (also beautiful).

Because my wife would kill me if I put anything up on the web that could actually identify "her" children, let me introduce my baby daughter, who I shall call "Albert".  Albert is a cute little button.  She is 57 years old.


Well, Albert was hungry, so I had to feed her, since my wife was away.  I figured I'd give her some cereal.

First off, that stuff is nasty. I mixed formula with it until it was the correct consistancy ( wet spackling ).  I got her set up in her little seat and started to feed her.

Now, my little Albert is a little .... well dopey.  She's a baby and doesn't understand that she can do more than one thing at a time.  For example, it's sort of funny to watch her open her mouth, wait, close her mouth, and then jam her thumb at her face.  The look is classic, trust me.

So imagine my suprise when the little princes does a startlingly credible impression of the Gungan leader from Star Wars (Phantom Menace) and simultaneously blows "raspberries".  Thanks to my lovely wife for teaching her to spit...

Aparently, the vigourous shaking she was doing bothered her little tummy, so she added a third thing.  She started spewing half digested formula... and spitting ... and doing the Gungan thing.

The cats did not apprecate this.

Neither did I.

I think I'll go to bed early tonight after cleaning the kitchen.

KISS me, I'm dorky!

Ok, I give up. I've been trying to make the DITA-OT do what I want it to do. It's a really powerful and flexible tool, and I know that somebody really smart could make it do just about anything. Problem is, I'm just not that damn smart, apparently. When it comes down to it, all I really want is Ant, since I'm writing my own stylesheets and only have one output format. Also, I am not likely to need DITA's transclusion mechanisms. So forget the DITA-OT, I'll just use Ant.

Furry Feet, Cotton Mouth, and a Big Dorky Smile

Through most of my life, I've had some serious misconceptions about depression. I have long believed that depressed people were just irritating weak-willed whiners who needed a kick in the ass and to shake it off. So naturally, I got a nice dose of the irony of life and wound up with depression myself. The more I read about depression, the more I realize how long I've had it without knowing. Actually, a big sign of depression isn't necessarily crying/sadness or a tendency to listen to emo rock at all. It can often be severe detachment and apathy. I know there's probably a lot of people out there saying "Duh!" right now, but that was news to me. Actually, three of the big symptoms are: - Apathy/Detachment - Lack of Motivation/Drive - Forgetfulness All of these, I've had in spades for some time. A lot of the reading says if these last for more than two weeks at a pop, you could be considered clinically depressed. Now that it's been poi...

New Geek Project

I was considering a new project at work, but couldn' t seem to get funding, so I'll try it at home, and perhaps blog about it (in addition to my rants).   It strikes me that creating XML documentation in a topic based architecture is almost exactly like a software development project:  You have source files that you need to control (XML source instead of code source), you have binaries to link in (images instead of libraries), and you must run the source through a process (stylesheet instead of compiler) to create your executable file(s).  In this case, it's a document or web instead of an actual program file.  Since I'm not creating something for work, I'll make something I like better.  Something for one of my geekier hobbies...  Yes, I'm one of those freaky Dungeons and Dragons players.  Since I'm running a campaign, maybe I'll try to create a world encyclopedia or adventure notes using this project. So, let's start at the beginning.  Source.   I...
