There’s No Accounting For Cows

Cynthia is away helping a friend in Blacksburg until Saturday, so I am once again left in miserable solitude. As if that weren’t bad enough, I have to work tomorrow (a day I normally don’t have to work), reducing a potential 4-day weekend to a mere 3-day weekend. It sucks! (Yes, I’m well aware that most people would be ecstatic to have a 3-day weekend and I should be grateful for that, but I’m not and I don’t care who knows it.)

I didn’t mention this before because it was too humiliating, but I finally got my Tucows “review” back on Defector and I only got a measly stinking three cows. THREE COWS. What am I supposed to do with three cows?? I can’t exactly use that in any advertising. It was only one rating point away from being four cows, but still it was quite depressing. “Look at me! Buy my software! It got almost-four cows out of five!” But I’m not bitter. Actually I’m convinced the poor showing is not because there is anything wrong with my software, but because I didn’t pay for any of their “premium” submittal services and there is probably some grass roots anti-.NET conspiracy afoot somewhere in their midst.

Anyway, Defector is my next project goal now that I’m done with the Elmer stuff. Three cows indeed! This time it’s personal.
