css. And php.

Trying to learn Python, though I don't know when I'd ever use it.

Touchy in American.

TheMercenary 01-01-2010 09:49 AM

Thanks, now that you pointed it out I can see the similarity.

Oh, I was thinking tetchy would be nuts, like tetched in the head. Or is that a New England thing?

In pain from my wrist still... Not even able to tie my own shoes without it hurting like crazy. I tried to stir the spag sauce tonight, and now need painkillers. BAH

For some time, I've felt like I should learn Python. I like the approach a lot. But the fact is 99% of what I do is short bits to kludge together things. (Example: look in the registrar's office to see who doesn't have a photo on file for the directory. Then see who off of that list has an ID card photo in the security office.) And I know perl well enough that it's easier to just use that.

Up again all night with toothache. Two nights in a row.

I've heard that used around here as well... It seems like there could be some meaning drift there.

we say touched for nuts and tetchy for irritable, also touchy for easily offended.

Today, the Cellar Car gets state inspection + emissions, oil and filter, new front brakes, two new belts, new muffler, and new O2 sensor (long due). All for about $750.

Plus a surprising clean bill of health for the clutch. (Coulda sworn it was slipping, but hey fine!) It's because I love her that I take care of her. Driven a total of 5K miles this past year, thanks to y'all. It's like... it's mildly irritating to pay that sort of bill, but at the same time, I'm taking care of our baby.

glatt 01-04-2010 01:07 PM

It's making me happy that you are taking care of our baby.

jinx 01-04-2010 01:10 PM

It's making me happy that while reading about the cellar car, my peripheral vision noticed that Dana touched her nuts.
