Can something be unusually mundane? By definition, no. So I guess I'm having an ordinarily mundane day. Oh, the mundanity!
The most exciting thing that has happened today is that I found the PHP function I've been looking for to finish writing a form processing script. I'm so excited I could fall asleep. Or maybe I'm just tired.
Now I'm going to go read a book about Javascript. The day is getting more and more exciting by the minute.

End of an era
Tonight Fox is airing the last four episodes of Arrested Development. I'm going to forgo the excitement that is the Winter Olympics opening ceremony to watch them. I then have an hour and a half blocked out for mourning the loss of my dear offbeat television comedy.
Ever since the beginning I've known it was too good to be true. Anything that I find as funny as Arrested Development can never last on network television. Seriously, I should be a one woman test audience to predict doomed shows. Apparently Showtime is in talks to pick up the show, but it's far from a done deal.
This is going to be a rough TV season end for me. I'm losing Arrested Development, Alias and The West Wing plus Six Feet Under earlier this year. Actually, now that I write that, it doesn't seem nearly as bad. The West Wing should have been cancelled when Aaron Sorkin left the show and has sucked since Season 5. Alias is past its prime, although I think a Spy Daddy spinoff would be fantastic. I miss Six Feet Under a lot, but at least HBO didn't let it drag on like they are with The Sopranos.

Things I hate
In no particular order, complete with ordinal numbers to confuse the matter:
- web apps that don't tab correctly
- the turn of the century
- my new computer monitor
- the overcrowded bike racks at my apartment complex
- paranoia
- pharmaceutical reformulation patents
- websites that require registration
- del.icio.us
- decorative fruit trees
- end-user license agreements
- Mondays
- IE specific Javascript
- people who don't know how to drive safely near cyclists
