Ineffectual

Today is the first day of Spring.   The change of seasons doesn't mean much to me even if I live in a place with actual seasons.  I've been thinking about planting something but I'm not sure why.  I really need to kick it in gear and empty out the house.   

The big stuff are the furniture and boxes and boxes of books.  There are even more up on the third floor.  I have a contact who might be interested in some of the books, but I haven't called yet.  I guess I'm waiting for better weather or winning lottery ticket.

The NY Times website looks worse and worse each day.  Today I was greeting for a ginormous Lowes ad.  I don't mind big ads, but when it takes up half a page of content (read: was especially distracting), I'll start going somewhere else.  Why do people think that bigger is better?  Big ads never work on a person like me.  Sure, someone has to pay the bills, but it's not like the Times has an exclusive on content - or its content.  Maybe I'll just read Google News.
