... featured my sister ringing just a few moments ago to let me know my six-year-old autistic nephew is obsessed with Diaclone.

Not Transformers. Not Go-Bots. Not Machine Men.

Diaclone.

Oy vey. I guess I should find a copy of Scramble City 2 to help bridge the gap between the Dialone commercials and Transformers...

With the upcoming release of Assembled! Vol.2, which carries a link to my website in my little author bio blurb thingy, I figured it was time to actually put something up at that URL.

night-jaeger.net has for years been my catch-all domain, and I have rarely had an actual site there - it has just been used to store files linked to on other sites.

Now there's a placeholder! You can click a link which takes you right back here! Everyone should go do that now. :-)

I'm just not interesting enough to justify an actual site about me and my doings anymore, sadly...

I exceeded my bandwidth allowance last week and was throttled down to a 56k connection until midnight last night, when we switched into the new billing month and everything reset. Yes, technically I was still online, but very few of the websites I visit were functional at that speed - Dreamwidth, for example, timed out without displaying any content other than the page title in the title bar!

I think it should be law that every site with more than 1,000 users has to offer a scaled-down dial-up or mobile Internet option...

I am presently babysitting my four-year-old middle niece (the others being eight and three). She's a tad under the weather, and has been prescribed (what I believe to be unnecessary) medicine.

It's your typical pinkish viscous stuff, with your traditional medicine smell.

She really doesn't want to drink it.

I remember feeling that way as a kid, but for the life of me I can't remember what would work to get me to take it. She is slowly sipping it - with apple juice in-between in order to get rid of the taste - but both our lives would be much easier if she just drank all four mililitres in one go!

I just secured my official Facebook user name, and my profile can be accessed directly via:

Go "friend" me now.

(Friend is not a verb, dang it.)
