Lori and Megan cooked me a really nice breakfast this morning and got me a nice framed picture of Megan and I.
Now Lori has given me a little time to work on some stuff and I have been doing pretty well with it. I've gotten two articles done. One is a Java scripting language comparison for DevX. And the other is an article exploring the use of Groovy with XML for either OnJava or Java.net. It's funny how I am not a Java fan and yet I now have two more Java articles to add to the list. Both of the articles weighed in at around 3,000 words which is once again too heavy. Fifteen hundred words is actually really short when you think about it.
With Ripley's death and all of the upcoming travel we have had a lot of bills lately. But I've also been thinking about getting Lori a new computer for a while. So these articles will help with that. I figure six to eight articles will provide enough after-tax money to get her a new Aluminum 12" PowerBook with a SuperDrive and that should hold her four two or three years. I tried using her machine a couple of days ago and it was the most frustrating thing I had experience in a while. It was like working in molasses. She is a trooper to put up with it this long.
