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.
It's about issues with Outlook not putting meetings at the right time, and to double check them.
Our IT department has been sending out several of those messages. I have nothing in my calendar, so it's a pretty easy fix for me!
We'll see about the rest of my electronic devices this weekend.
OMG, everyone's freaking out so bad about this DST thing. We actually got a Windows patch to download, so I'm hoping my work computer will sort itself out?
But seriously, people.
I'm feeling fine now, the effects were pretty transitory. Though I didn't appreciate the well-meaning techs telling me that people sometimes panic when the push of IV fluids makes the heart rate to go up and cause a flush.
I don't think it was so much the flush of warmth (that I'd been warned about in advance) that made me panic as the HAVING TO FIGHT TO DRAW A BREATH and feeling like someone was putting 100 lbs. of pressure on my diaphragm. I was pretty calm until that hit.
I'm Whitie MacWhite of the Clan MacWhite.
Yeah, you know a lot of buffistas think they're pale, but in my experience there's fair skinned and then there's brenda.
Sending a request in at 4:56 on a Friday when it is posted everywhere that systems go down at 5?
Means I can't help you.
And I gotta go.
We're pretty fair skinned in my family, too. Once when Franny's school had a waterplay day, I couldn't help but notice that Frances was about 4 shades paler than anyone else. First it amused me, then it made me slather some more 50+ sunblock on her.
My ground state is fishbelly white, but after the intitial burn I actually add tan pretty easily.
When I was going through my photographs this past weekend, I dug up the one of all of us taken when we went to Disneyworld for a family vacation back in 2000. My mom's the only one wearing full-length pants, and out of the rest of us, my legs are onion-white compared to everyone else's varying degrees of tan.
OMG, everyone's freaking out so bad about this DST thing.
Yeah, having to change the time manually -- we've reverted to the DARK AGES. Run for your lives!
I am of the firm opinion that, in general, the paler your skin, the sooner you age.
Nah, it's how much you tan-- my mom is one of those redheads who doesn't tan and had some young looking skin...though she got kind of crepey of late, but I digress.
