“Corrections”

#1 To be fair to Apple, the mail app lets you delete without opening the email. I accidentally found that if swipe across an email subject line, it gives you an option to delete. That is a great feature! Oddly, it doesn’t always work. Sometimes it just marks it as read or does nothing with it at all. If I open it and then delete, it always deletes. I’m not sure why that is.

#2 I was using Copytrans manager (an iTunes alternative) and it was reporting the free disk space on the touch was more than what the touch recognized. It also occurred to me that there might not have been enough space to download the package and install. So it could be that CopyTrans was wrong. Note: I deleted past 650MB before deleting that one video that didn’t properly delete. So who knows.

“Omissions”

That secret I mentioned from last week was that we’re getting a fence and a new kitchen floor. Family from VA came up for the weekend and put the project on hold indefinitely. We already have ALL the material – the fencing and lumber is in the yard; the thinset, backer and tile is in the garage.

Also, silly me: I forgot to update the projects blog. The pool occupied all of last week’s mental capacity; now that it’s filled, filtered and chlorinated I can move onto other projects.

“New Phase”

#1 I tend to listen to music in phases. For a while it was French hip-hop, and then somewhere in there it was rock/metal. I grabbed Ke$ha, and it’s now technopop. If anyone knows of any good techno/electropop, please pass it along.

Techno/electropop is one of those weird genres that never really wore off but it has an incredibly short shelf life. Whenever we go to NYC, I try to make it a point to go into some hole in the wall shop in the old neighborhood and grab something (anything) that looks good.

#2 Here goes with Google Apps Standard for the office. Let’s see what happens, I guess.
