Birthday
Claire!
<TypicalBirthdayStuff>I hope you have a wonderful day, get great gifts, and eat lots of cake! ^^ </TypicalBirthdayStuff>
I'm thinking of you, and can't wait until I can see you again.
Shhhhhheeeeeee's LEGAL! *does little happy dance* Now I can kiss her with her shoes off, and the Popo's can't do NOTHING about it! HEEheehee. *dances some more*
Ok, that's enough of that.
In other news - no one is here. The lady who's usually in the office with me is off today, my Boss is always impossible to find, and even MeiLi (my friend, the secretary across the hall) doesn't seem to be in. And i have nothing to do. O.o It's going to be a loooooong day. At least it's only until 3:45 t'day. And Monday's my last day working this summer. Tuesday we fly out East (*more dancing*) and Thursday I'll be at BuschGardens with Jenny and my family. And a week from THEN, I'll be with Claire. ^^
I go off now to do things which, uhm, should be done. Yeah. You'll hear from me again.
As you may or may not know (I would think most here WOULD know) you code font colors in HTML with a tag that looks something like <font color="blue">. However, and again I feel most of you know this, the "blue" can be substitued for a 6-digit code, in this case #000088, where the didgits correspond to rrggbb (for the challenged, that's red for the first two, green for the second two, and blue for the last two - I know I sound like a middle-school teacher, but this is mildly entertaining, and I have nothing better to do...). The didgits run from 0 thru F (this works on a hexadecimal system, which simply means it's base-16 instead of the base-10 we're all used to. Yes, it's math, don't mob me, just accept it). If memory serves (heh heh) that gives you 265 colors, which conveiniently enough is a base-2 number (1111 1111, I believe) which computers love oh-so much.
Enough math, onto art. So, it occured to me - how do you get yellow? I'm familiar with coding Green, Red, Blue, White, Black, shades of Grey, and Purple, but it never occured to me as to how to get Yellow. Maybe any artist could have pointed this out to me, but apparently you take Red and Green to make yellow. So, the yellow above is coded as #DDDD00. ^^;; I LOVE this stuff...
