my film page doesn't work in safari any more
i just went to check my 'films' web page, which i don't do that often ... found out that when you click on a movie in safari, it tries to play but can't. and the same page works fine in firefox and in parallels/windows IE. so that's pesky.
the page uses a javascript command 'QT_WriteOBJECT_XHTML' and it always used to work fine in safari. so something has changed -- maybe the new safari wants a different QT plugin and dislikes my continued use of QT7.
what else is going on ...
i guess it's been a month since i started painting again, finished a fourth one, it's called 'we have too much alarm' after that dream i had. but i'm not satisfied with it. i would try again, but i'm out of canvases. if it hadn't snowed so hard on saturday george and i would have driven to the art shop and bought some more 1m square canvases.
i'm feeling lovelorn again lately. falling in love with girls who don't want me. first i was sweet on ewa, and more recenly my smittenness with nieke was reawakened.
an online friend suggested i might have better luck with women if i pick on someone closer to my own age. yeah like i choose them from a pulldown menu or something. it's just something that happens to me, really. i very rarely fall in love, only with people who radiate to me.
monday ewa is cooking dinner at jon's house, then on tuesday i have a dinner appointment with nieke.
on the 19th i'm sposed to help henryk and daniel film some poetry at eijlders.
i keep hearing stories about people whose central heating goes out in amsterdam. it's scary, i don't want it to happen here. today it was not so cold as previous days.
