Several Raves:
1. I bought some espresso and started using the Espresso machine my uncle gave me a couple of Christmas's ago. I made a couple of cafe lattes for my girlfriend and I, and they're amazing. I'm going to get some chocolate syrup and make mochas.
2. This could have potentially been a rant. I've worked for two weeks on a quick search engine at work. In order to make it I had to learn an entire system that my team had written years ago, learn Struts (a framework for designing complex web pages), and java server pages. I had everything working great, the search returned the right results, and it even allowed the use of wildcards so that you could do something like A% and get every customer's name that started with an A. The point of the quick search was to launch a new window with a list of customers, then the user could click the one they wanted, and it would close the window and repopulate the original screen.
Turns out the funcionality I was using made everything possible...except for the opening of a new window. Since the searching is done server side, I can't display the results in a different window.
So now I have to learn AJAX, which greatly annoyed me at first. But now I'm pretty excited to be learning it, it's going to be really useful later on when designing my own websites.
3. I finally found a copy of The Watchmen at a local bookstore. Walden Books is now officially my favorite book store. It's great so far. I also bought the second book in the Twilight series.
4. It's the weekend.
