So the new rage is Mexican Coca-Cola, which is made with cane sugar instead of America’s Top Preferred Sweetener, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). We came across this stuff when we were shopping at Costco for a big party, and the case we picked up was a real hit. We even had friends asking us… Continue reading Hecho en Mexico
Base 16. Totally intuitive, right?
[16:38] ginnielizz: What was the formula again for darkening an HTML color code? [16:38] ginnielizz: For example, say I want to make 303030 darker [16:38] Hasukawa: 202020 [16:38] Hasukawa: I’m going to explain it now. Pedantic boyfriend. [16:38] ginnielizz: Thank you. I meant to get it explained earlier. [16:38] Hasukawa: The six digits define the… Continue reading Base 16. Totally intuitive, right?
Fall Fashion Tips
On our trip to the UK, Grant and I spotted some new fashion trends that ranged from adorable to amusing to abjectly painful. And I know this is waaaay old, given that I should’ve actually posted it back when we returned from the UK in early October… but alas, better late than never. These trends… Continue reading Fall Fashion Tips
Man, what a boring blog!
Seriously. Who even reads this? Thanks to Christian’s help, I can now sort of answer that question, but it doesn’t help much. I pretty much just get spam comments for Levitra now. Which is truly my own fault — it’s been SO LONG since I’ve paid this poor blog proper attention. The hiatus has been… Continue reading Man, what a boring blog!
Portal
Okay, so I’m not really a videogame fan like dear Grant is, but this is just too good not to blog about. A friend of ours who’s at Valve worked on a very cool game called Portal, which was released last week. Now obviously, not being a hardcore gamer, I’m not of the same caliber… Continue reading Portal
Best Bug EVER
Grant and I have been spending a leisurely afternoon playing World of Warcraft for the first time in ages, and we came across the most delightfully entertaining bug. Edited: my photo folder got disappeared in some recent tech updates, but basically, Grant’s character stayed on the wind rider well after he landed, and he appeared… Continue reading Best Bug EVER
Pedestrian Woes
Ever since Grant and I started taking the bus during our commute to Redmond, I’ve been ranging from irritated to outraged at the way drivers seem to go out of their way to mow us down at a few specific crosswalks – namely, all three crosswalks at the Olive Way on- and off-ramps to I-5… Continue reading Pedestrian Woes
I absolutely hate major updates
And yet, here I go. I recently decided that it’s time to move some portions of my site around such that they make more sense. Virginiaculler.com is going to be strictly professional, and I’m bringing on a new domain for my skincare/natural health stuff (which many of you Imaginary Readers may know nothing about), and… Continue reading I absolutely hate major updates
Purple is the new red
It’s official. And we at Windows Secrets adhere to the Purple Pen Protocol. Just one of the many but minor changes that I have to get used to. And honestly, it’s easier to read than red, so that’s a plus!
Happy Happy Blog Fix!
Okay, so for some reason my “img” code in my theme was automatically resizing width to 75 pixels, for no apparent reason, and of course the height was automatically resizing proportionally so… for those of you Imaginary Readers who were just FASCINATED by my Portland shopping antics, now you can truly see my bounty. And,… Continue reading Happy Happy Blog Fix!
