Economic Eats and One Evil Bunny

I am geekishly impressed by the cabbage! I've been eating one for a couple of days now, and I can't help but marvel. Not only is most of what you buy technically edible (if you don't mind the taste), but apparently half of the vegetable isle is some type of cabbage or other. From TFA linked above:

Cultivars of Cabbage include:
  • Broccoli
  • Brussels sprout
  • Cauliflower
  • Kale (Regular and Chinese)
  • Collard greens
  • Kohlrabi
Ok, Brussels sprout was an obvious one, but Cauliflower and Broccoli I did not know!
Two Days, 4 Meals, $1.79
Have to love it.

Cabbages, cabbages, yum, yum, yum. Cabbages, cabbages, gimme some!

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.

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 ...

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...
