Current Mood: Bored

So. Awfully quiet around here, but there hasn’t been much to talk about. Well, there has, but I’ve been busy — we’re packing up the house in preparation for a move in the middle of August, and so computer time has been scarce.

World Cup 2010 — I am so ridiculously proud of those little German dudes I can hardly articulate it … despite being traitorously in love with Fernando Muslera, Uruguay’s goalie. (And Iker Casillas, but that’s an entirely different story.) So it was kind of disappointing to watch the kids get thrashed by Spain, but overall I suppose the outcome was acceptable because Spain was pretty good despite low scores, and that meant my team lost to the winners, which is better than, idk, Brazil. Double bummer that Klose’s back injury kept him from playing the third place game, which would have almost certainly have tied him with that strumpet Ronaldo. Still! 2014 — Müller and Özil are going to tear it up, and I’d really imagine Lahm will keep the captaincy when Ballack retires, if he ends up having to give it up in the first place, haha. Schweinsteiger still has at least one more in him … yeah, it’s going to be awesome. Hell, even Euro 2012 is going to be an adventure of epic proportions, especially the kids can get over their terror of Spain.

In website news, I’ve closed Spindizzy. I’ve been debating it over the last year — I don’t really have the interest to maintain fanlistings anymore, nor am I particularly interested in trying to revive it. Sorry to anyone who wanted to adopt, but I didn’t really want to wait around, especially with trouble checks coming up. As soon as I remember, I’ll be dropping my status as a TC’er as well, since … yeah, not a lot of interest. I’d feel bad about it if I hadn’t put in so much effort over the last seven years. Anyway, there’s that.

Working on some writing as well, though that’s going slow with the packing up to move bit and all. I’ve got two pieces that need to be done by the end of the month, and then I’m thinking I’m going to pause a bit and do another design for karaoke-soul.net. I’d still like to get that layout database up someday, but time’s kind of been short for most of this year and rustling up the proper energy at the proper time is getting harder. I’m getting old! Birthday at the end of the month and everything!
