Fucking Google is retiring iGoogle, which has been infinitely useful in presenting Gmail, Twitter, GoogleDocs, Calendar, chat, a to-do list, and several high-use RSS feeds on one page.
I used to use iGoogle religiously, but one day I realized that if I just make each thing a separate tab in my bookmarks toolbar instead, it achieves the same thing.
If there are new things, I always just open full g-mail or full Google Reader through iGoogle anyway, because there's not enough room in the widgets to do anything. So at that point, it's useless to even use iGoogle because I could load the individual pages and look just as fast, and I'm in the full web-app already if there's anything new.
However, it seems like you have a ton of things to look at through iGoogle. I was only looking at two or three things. Maybe if more people had worked on development for it, it wouldn't be retired, but as it is, it doesn't have enough integration with the things I use.

is this why my Chrome no longer has anything on my most visited page?
Starting up practicing the piano again. I currently have a love/hate relationship with synchopation: it sounds awesome, but it sucks to play if you're not used to it.

Syncopation isn't that hard to pick up on its own; try playing two melodic lines with different meters at once. That's when things get really "fun."

Alright, I'm on book 2 playing a song called Jumping Jazz Cats. Cut me some slack.
Wow, I put my copy of the Pokemon Collosseum bonus disc up on Amazon, to try out their merchant system, and it has sold in less than 24 hours. Sweet.
I've had nothing but good experiences selling on Amazon, but I'm also willing to issue refunds if something gets lost in the post (happens rarely). Their cut is kind of high, but the buyers are generally high quality and things do sell quickly if you price reasonably.

It's also hell of a lot easier to sell on than eBay. Def going to be using it more.
I am on vacation for the next week. I am having trouble disengaging from work mode. Every hour or so I start thinking about things at work that desperately need done or will get fucked up in my absence, and my blood pressure shoots sky-high.
We're packing up to visit with family in western Pennsylvania tomorrow and Saturday, then my parents are visiting here for a couple of days. Lisa and I may leave Rylin with them and get an overpriced hotel room in downtown Cleveland and hang out there overnight, taking in *giggle* all the *hahahaha* culture that Cleveland *HAHAHAHA* has to offer (I'm pretty sure this just means gorging ourselves on steak).
Today is also my 10-year wedding anniversary, and I bought Lisa lots of different fancy wines and a Blu-ray player. I didn't really want one because I think it's a pre-obsolete medium, but Lisa wants to keep up with the Joneses. Shrug.
EDIT: Tomorrow is my anniversary. I blame the mad cow.
I go on vacation for the first time in a year and Obama stops for lunch in my beat area. I WOULD HAVE HAD A BEER WITH HIM TODAY HAD I REMAINED ON WORKAHOL.

My commute was nice too.
My commute sucked. We're about half-staffed and that's enough that I can't goof off well enough to enjoy it.
