What I Did Today
I first created my 'What I Did Today' page because I was bored and had nothing better
to do. It became my most popular page, probably because it was the only page that changed
with any kind of regularity. But here it is again. Created on May 18th, 1998. Notice the
nice, friendly blue and purple theme of this page.
If you want, go home.
