no excuses

I feel like I'm way overdue for a post even if it's going to be a pretty short update. First, I'll point out that new progress bar on the right. I'm hoping that a more public display of my reading status will induce me to read faster. Thanks to pablo for both the idea and the code for it. Check out his website if you're a gaming / computer dork or if you're just interested in general blogging type sites, you creepy bastard, you. Outside of that, I've had to halt all development on the site for a little while. I need to finish this one lingering project by Wednesday in order to finally finally graduate. ("Need" in this case is more like "need food", rather than the standard ray "need" like "need miniscule brushed metal gadgetry.") I'm well on my way with it, but I really can't do much else in the meantime.

In other news, I should note that no one has emailed me to contribute to the "send Ray's lazy ass to Europe" fund. I'm somewhat disappointed, but am still diligently sitting on my lazy ass.
