I captured this screenshot of the current Weatherpixie on my site. Marcus would probably like this since the girl is carrying an iBook. Even they have "switched!" LOL!

You wouldn't believe how many hits my site is getting since I mentioned the bunny commercial. I guess I'm not the only one who loves it!

Current mood: busy
I'm a bad girl. I skipped school today to get some things done that have been hanging over me. One was to upgrade my Movabletype so that I can do some of the hacks that I've been wanting to try. I think I've got everything working correctly since the upgrade, but if I don't, please email me and let me know.

I want to figure out how to get my mood icons into some sort of palette like the smilies, but have them post to my entry instead of comments. Right now I just copy code from a Word document that I have on my hard drive, but that doesn't help me if I'm not at home or if I'm using a different computer. I'm following some leads on the internet, but they'll require some major hours of work. Hopefully this weekend. I also want a new layout. If only I didn't have to work...

Well, better get back to business. I have got a TON of boxes to sort through before work!

1. What was the first band you saw in concert?
It was Barry Manilow "in the round" at the old McNichols Sports Arena in Denver. I think I was 16 or 17. I remember I drove to it because my Ford Pinto stationwagon got a flat in the parking lot.

2. Who is your favorite artist/band now?
I don't really have a favorite at the moment.

3. What's your favorite song?
Queens of the Stone Age's "No One Knows"--although even after reading the lyrics on their site, I still don't get what it's about.

4. If you could play any instrument, what would it be?
Piano. I took keyboarding classes in college, so I could play chords and pick out melodies and such, but I really can't play it. I also want to play guitar. After I get out of school, I will probably pursue that goal with earnest, since a guitar is waaaaay cheaper than a piano.

5. If you could meet any musical icon (past or present), who would it be and why?
This may be weird, but I'd love to meet Mozart. I would just like see what he was like in person.

I have purposely not been writing much about the Iraq war here, but I just had to make a note about this. I had tears in my eyes today watching the Iraqi civilians tearing down the Saddam statue in Baghdad.
