Quiet day

[lnr]

Got up and spent a couple of hours defrosting the freezer. It really needed doing. I practically filled the washing up bowl with water and ice in the process, as well as soaking two towels right through. And some of the bits of ice were a couple of inches thick. Lots more room in there now anyway. The rest of the day I've mostly read and dozed, ok and smirked a little at the confusion I managed to cause j4 and simont.

This evening rjk has gone out to a rehearsal for the LOTR reading the CTS is doing in June. They have another one on Tuesday. I'm impressed. While he's been out I have been faffing. I've finally admitted to myself that most of my "real" webpages are now merely history, but I don't want to get rid of them. The main index page has been mostly stripped bare though, and now only has extra links to my LJ, Amazon wishlist and the list I've just hacked using ls of our CD collection. I'm mildly scared by it I have to admit!

Going to watch Sense and Sensibility soon. Still haven't definitely decided which film to tape of the later two, but given how much I've pouted at the results of the poll I suspect I shall be entirely ignoring your esteemed advice. It's kind of like tossing a coin and seeing how you react to the result: a way of working out your own feelings on the subject.

Oops, I'd forgotten to vote!

I've just voted for 'The American President', cos I like it and I always cry.

And I took your advice both in the poll and this afternoon's mail and watched it this afternoon, and it made me cry again too.

What scares you about your CD collection? I count 228 disks there. Try this one:

I'm glad I started building that list when I only had 30 CDs (or less). I'd hate to start indexing them now!

Re:

$ grep '<li>' public-html/cds.html | wc -l
300

They were indexed using ls, which was easier in some sense, but more time consuming since it meant ripping them first ;-) And the thing that is scary is how fast it has grown over the last couple of years, but I didn't have a count back then.

Hey and you're cheating anyway, if your 449 includes each individual disc of multiple disc albums. I make mine 323 by that count.

Oh God, you've reminded me how urgently I need to defrost our fridge/freezer! I can hardly fit anything into the freezer compartment, it's so full of ice.
