Yes. I am lazy. Really lazy. Sue me.

Fine. I haven't written. I get on these kicks where everything else takes priority and I re-jigger everything that I'm doing. I'm getting more into D programming and the XRX architecture now, and I haven't done anything with the first project.

I have a five minute attention span. I blame society.

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.

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...

Productivity Pr0n and Self-Revealing Ick

I was looking over some various productivity Pr0n when I came across a nice bit of advice for maintaining focus and productivity: Care . It seems so simple, but for someone who has been going through mild clinical depression, it's really difficult. Oh, yeah, I skipped that part. I've been going through mild clinical depression. No bad thoughts about hurting me or others, no medicine; Just a lot of apathy towards mostly everything. It runs in the family. Thanks, parents. ;P Caught up? Good. Lets continue. So there are some things I do care about. Intensely, as a matter of fact: My family My friends The socio-economic plight of the indigenous tribes of Madagascar. Granted, two of those are pretty far ahead of the third. So, I am trying to figure out what I want to do next, since I'm more or less in a forced reset mode. Self re-invention is an awkward and somewhat overly revealing process. Ever take a long, honest look at yourself without the sugar-coated happy ...
