‘Birfday to you,

(actually, it’s tomorrow, but she won’t read this on Saturday.)

Yet Another Geek Update. It turns out that error correction is only available in the DVD-R format (that little minus sign is the important part) and I was using DVD+R. So today I picked up a couple of DVD-R discs today to rip the iDVD movie I’ve got prepared for the slide show tomorrow night. I also re-encoded a bunch of movies I shot with the camera and included them on the disc; I’m excited to see how the whole thing turns out.

It’s looking like another intensive painting weekend is in the cards for me. The weather is supposed to be upper 80’s, and hopefully the humidity will stay down below 40%. I’m going to try to get the back side of the house done, which includes the funky area by the atrium, and a bit of ladderwork around the power/telephone cabling. If it goes as smoothly as the side did, I should be able to punch most of it out by Saturday evening (primer and paint.) Wish me luck.
