The worst thing about all the rain is that my dogs are bored to tears.
Shazam, my 10-year-old Austrailian healer mix sits in the livingroom window and just looks out, she even licks the glass inside as the rain runs down thinking that she's getting a drink...sometimes even sort of "hurumphing-sighing" like a kid trapped inside on a rainy day. Dogs just don't understand rain for days on end, they are creatures of habit and have a schedule, especially my other healer mix, Buster. and I don't blame them for not wanting to hunch in the cold rain to take a dump...hell I wouldn't either.
But rainy weekends are good for getting work done.I've been inking like mad all weekend to send a huge batch of Turtles pages out Monday via FTP now that (hopefully) my internet is fully restored.

Soggy Sunday
Well it looks like the rain is suposed to move off the coast soon. it has been one swampy mess this weekend adn to top it off my internet service has been spotty too. I'm pretty unhappy with my ISP lately, ths is the second time in a month that the service has crapped out, so I'm seriously considering swithing to cable for a try.
I like the rain right before a big thunderstorm while the air is all a-crackle, or a break in the summer from the heat. It's awesome out west when the monsoons come, rain on one horizion, sun where you stand...
ReplyDeleteFTP is File Transfer Protocal I think
It's basically my computer putting a file directly onto another computer in a certain place. Fer instance my computer putting a file from my art folder on my desktop using the program FETCH which basically directly calls up a certain address and sub folders on that address, which is my websites address on the server ( another computer at my internet service provider ISP for short) which has my website on it. So FTP is shooting files from folder to folder on different computers.
If I haven't totally confused you.
SPJ My suggestion is to start a blog yourself and learn some basic HTML via trial by error and a few library books
you can learn basic HTML in a weekend and programs like Go-liveand Dream Weaver etc make it really easy now.
