Windy Day

Today was a very windy day. It wasn't just windy, but humid, thanks to the rain we've been getting off and on the last few days. The last two nights, we've had quite a bit of lightning and thunder. I really like it, and find myself sleeping a little bit better. No more lightning tonight, it appears.

This afternoon, I was driving out to Washburn High School, where I'm teaching one of my courses this fall, and the wind was really gusting. I was driving along the parkway and I actually worried a bit that trees were going to fall in the roadway! Something did hit the car, but it was relatively small. Just big enough to scare me but not to leave a scratch.

I was reading Xu's Babblog and she has a beautiful entry about walking through a flock of birds the other day. I wish my adventure was more like walking through a flock of birds than driving through a storm. But, on the other hand, she also has an entry about really just enjoying life's journey. This is definitely a motto I try to live by, but with as busy as I feel like I am these days, it also feels a bit challenging to just give in to the journey. Sometimes I feel a little too sidetracked by the destination. Maybe that's why driving in the storm feels too stressful sometimes.

I'd personally personally favor Google. Both FB and Google would benefit from it, but we would likely benefit more from Google taking it over. In the case of Google+ it is just a matter of time. Facebook was lucky it didn't definitely need to compete with something as "good" as facebook, the competition was just lacking a lot of features in addition to a global approach.Google+ is exceptional to Facebook, but it has a bigger challenge to get popular.Just check out VHS and Betamax. Betamax was better but lost due to bad marketing/licensing.Danny recently posted..Black & Decker NPP2018 18-Volt Cordless Electric Pole Chain Saw

Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked hard on. Any suggestions?

Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a forty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

My coder is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on various websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it? Any kind of help would be really appreciated!
