Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I don't feel so hot in my tummy, so I decided not to go into work. I have stuff that needs to get done that I can do from here, so not a complete waste of a day.
Also, I'm afraid I don't like my new glasses. Or, I like them, but they need a slight modification -- my eyeballs are too close to the inside of the glasses, if that makes any sense. If the lenses were just a touch closer together, they would be perfect. I'm going to see if the glasses store people can do anything about this.
Okay, now I'm tempted to go back and look just to see how bad it could be.
Oh, it's that bad.
I need new glasses too, but who knows when I'll get to that. They should be able to fix that for you, Jesse.
I am theoretically all about the "save the curse words for when they're really effective." And then you get me driving and I become Expletive Queen.
I am sure the Amazing Wonder Niece is all ears, waiting for me to break out the four-letter words on visits.

The AWN seems to be quite the language sponge.

My eyelashes sometimes hit the lenses of my glasses. Of course, it could just mean I need my eyelashes trimmed.
Gronk^∞ No caffeine yet. I think I might not be at work, but instead home dreaming this. If so, it's a crappy dream.

Nuh uh! Long lashes are excellent! I meant from side-to-side, though. Looking at my face straight on, there is more of the lens on the outside (toward my ears) than the inside (toward my nose) on either side of my eyeballs.
Why is stainless steel nonferromagnetic?
Probably because of the added chromium they put in it.
Now I'm curious as to what makes iron magnetic.
(I read an article [link] about accidents caused by ferromagnetic metals being pulled in to the powerfull magnets in M.R.I. machines.)
Here's a cite on the stainless steel thing, although even to me it's like "blah blah blah blah blah blah nickel blah blah blah blah chromium blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah magnetic blah blah blah blah." Apparently some stainless steel can conduct magnetism. [link]
