The purpose of this post is to inform you that the publishing engine that produces the journal you're reading has been upgraded from Movable Type 3.14 to Movable Type 3.2. As usual, the company failed to include an author upgrade with this latest installment.

Today, by the way, is the first Friday I have off due to a new alternate work schedule I started last week. The way it works is relatively simple. I work an extra hour Monday through Thursday and get every other Friday off. Some of the tasks I accomplished or will accomplish today:

• Upgraded Movable Type
• set up a Flickr account
• vacuumed the house
• wash one load of laundry
• assemble an arbor (and photograph the assembly efforts)
• read a book outside while the sun is still shining

Have a great Friday (and weekend), everbody!
