A new thread for all the Mundane and Pointless Stuff; beginning with:
When I first joined the as Ai\ Yue- Ha
, some people asked me to post my name in Chinese characters. All I could do was a lame-ass ASCII thing I whipped up. Here it is now, in GB font glory:
°¬ Ô¼ º²
Thrilling, eh?
(To see this, you’ll probably have to go up to view and set your Encoding to Chinese Simplified… you may need to download Chinese Language support from MS, but its a small file)

And the momeraths outgrabe.
(The following is advice for IE)
Click View and scroll down to Encoding. In the little box that pops out, select "More to get a long list of fonts. Select Chinese Simplified (GB2312) If you have that font, the characters will display. If you don’t, a download box for the font from Microsoft should pop up. It’s a free update for IE.

I’m training someone new to help me out today which means I’ll be able to take vacations and even (GASP) a sick day! Woo hoo! Getting ready to get on a plane Thursday too! Yee-Ha!
I’m picking up my new contact lenses tomorrow morning, which means I will finally be able to see more than two feet in front of my face. It is going to be weird trying to watch t.v. without squinting, actually being able to read street signs, etc.
