My Traffic Life

I am Mae German. 34 years old. Born in Mangatarem, province of Pangasinan. I was taught and trained by Juan Dela Cruz, and I am currently being trained for more by Uncle Sam. Writing since the age of 12. Blogging since 2001. I keep a notebook and a pen in my bag, on my bedside table, and inside the bathroom. Misses a lot. Sometimes even my own voice. Loves to laugh. Sometimes even at myself. I am a work in progress. My ultimate dream is to be a SAHM. That is, if I am bound to have that chance in this lifetime... and I am.

My Traffic Rules

Don't take my words personally. At times, not even literally. This is my journal. You're my reader. My spectator. Applaud. Yawp. Yawn. Smile. Frown. Rave. Rant. Or not. Neither can I see you from where I am standing nor can I hear you.

This is not my life. Maybe just a part of it. But this is me meandering through life. My emotions fluctuate. My opinion varies. If it's too hot in here and you can't take it, leave. If it's dull and too cold, go somewhere else for warmth. I won't wipe the frown on your brow.

My stories, unless stated otherwise, are mostly fictional. Fiction could be based on reality. Still, they are fiction. Don't own it. Don't live in it. It is what it is. Leave it.

Watch out for the traffic light. Follow the rules. Cruise.

I have been working on the pages of Toto's Grill for a while. I have been removing all the < table > tags replacing them with < div > tags, and I have been updating my CSS file. I should be done this week but in reality, I still have some fifty and more pages left to modify. What has slowed me down? Bootcamp! No. Make that my laziness to use Bootcamp!

I need to make sure my pages will look good or at least all right on different internet browsers. Well, I mean, at least on the major ones such as the Microsoft's IE and Mozilla Firefox. GreenApple has a default browser-- Safari, so that's a bonus. Problem is, I don't have a Parallel Desktop for Mac (uhh.. in human language, that's running your Windows on Mac without rebooting). I downloaded a trial version and installed it only to realize that I haven't brought with me my own Windows installer. Geez!

GreenApple has a Bootcamp. It is a utility included in Mac OS, enabling it to have two partition (one for installing and running Windows OS on Mac). But there's one inconvenience, at least for someone who's lazy rebooting their system (that's me!), you read it right-- I have to reboot my system on Windows just to test my pages on IE! Come on! All I need is the IE browser and not the whole Windows! And I'd rather cook than reboot GreenApple! Yup! Simply because I am lazy shutting down the many applications that's been up and running on my system. Using them or not, once I open an application, there's no closing them.

Obviously, whining won't solve any problem. So, this morning I finally took my lazy costume off and did what I should be doing-- Bootcamp! It was a relief that my pages are okay with Firefox, Safari, and IE (version 7 that is). Now I can go on with the rest of the pages. And yes, I am not rebooting for a long time again... at least until I am done with the rest of the website.

Talk about being productive, eh?
