I've gotten a few of my 'spring time' tasks completed. Tax info has been submitted to a CPA for completion. Spring cleaning is well underway. The kitchen table has been recovered for the purpose of dining.

I've downloaded an application for my MacBook called Scrivener, which is designed for writing. It is rather inexpensive at $39.95. The trial is generous too, the 30 days only count the days you use it. So until you get 30 days of use out of it, the trial continues. This is perfect for my sporadic tinkering.

I bought an iPhone and it is everything I hoped it would be. With the expaned capacity of the iPhone, and it's ability to play video, I've had to upgrade my MacBook drive from 80 to 320GB. The Western Digital Scorpio Black drive is pretty spiffy, 7200rpm with 5400rpm power consumption. The extra space is nice, I might actually have a Windows VM in Parallels along witht the Ubuntu VM. I've set up my AT&T wireless accound and voicemail, I should be all set.

I've installed Ruby and CVS in my Ubuntu VM, I'll have to see what databases it supports natively.

I think a nap is calling me, oh lazy rainy day.
