My subconscious has been overtaken

June 30, 2006

By webdesign, it's true.

Last night I thought of a great re-design for flink, while walking the pooch at 1:00am. Fell asleep while ironing out the kinks in my head.

Once asleep I had a dream about presenting a final version to a client, except I had decided to think outside the box and made the entire website out of foolscap using a yellow high-liter for the important parts. It was an anxiety dream obviously, about a project that is way due, way soon. Oh wait, that's all of them.

Then I woke up and my first thought upon waking was not sex, nor breakfast, not even taking a piss. I woke up, quite literally in the middle of a thought about how to take one of the older sites I have made this year and re-work the navigation to make it more user and action oriented.

There is *nothing else going on upstairs*. Just the internet 24/7.

I don't just need a hobby. I need my humanity back.

Speaking of humanity; This guy was in the park today walking his ferret, on a leash. It's really weird watching a pet-owner watching his pet climb a tree while on a leash. From afar it looked like he was taking this giant oak-tree for a walk.

What I really need is a new mac laptop. Does anyone have any special insider information that the intel macs are gawbage or anything? If I get a mac now, I get a free nano. Why I want a free nano when I already have an ipod is unclear, maybe to give to someone else or what'evs. it just seems like a good opportunity.

hey lovely,
never buy any of Apple's products in their first generation. I did once and the keyboard on the laptop melted.
also I got a really nice mental image of you when you talked about walking the dog at 1 a.m. Remembering my couch surfing times at your place very fondly.

bahh... I know you are right

and that's why I am still using this g4 that is so slow I could probably hammer out my websites on one of those tablets the Romans used.

I can't speak from first hand knowledge, but in my looking at Macs (the iMac), I've been told that the intel chip performs far better than the g4, and even the g5. Once the software catches up (next year), it should all run quite smoothly. The only buggy thing I've heard of is running Windows, which works not quite perfectly.
