Bees Are All The Buzz
I’ve been spending a lot of free time reading up on apiculture. I plan on building a KTBH over the winter and getting bees sometime next spring. Alissa and I both plan on taking a beekeeping course so we have more of an idea about what we’re doing.

Windows Convert
My system is up and running. I’m listening to di.fm and happily getting work done. The only difference is I’m now using Debian (Sid). It’s come a long since the last time I gave it a try (Sarge was unstable). With the exception of Visual Studio, I have found suitable alternative apps. For that, I am running XP through VirtualBox. I still have a few XP licenses sitting on the shelf and it’ll be fun to see how many instances I can run at the same time.

Cat Tower
Since I threw out all of the cats’ furniture (and most of my own) during the move, I figured I could at least afford some new stuff for the cats. Everything I saw at Alissa’s pet store was way over priced and no single piece looked like it would be enjoyable for the cats. Each had good qualities, but overall they were not worth the $80+ price tag (after the employee discount). A few hours of web surfing gave me an idea of how to create my own.
