Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

It is incredibly quiet in my office. Probably 3/4 of the people are not here. You would think this would give me the opportunity to write this thing I need to get written. And yet? NSM.
Are you asking for motivation like "You can get that thing written Jesse! We believe in you! You the Woman!" or validation like "Hey, if they aren't there doing work how can they expect you to be slaving over the thing that needs writing."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sadly, I don't think either would help at this point. But I appreciate the offer!

That site is sort of addictive. After a while, I was clicking things mostly on instinct. Still, 540 grains of rice is what - a mouthful? Maybe two?

I have no motivation, and time has slowed, I swear.
Calgon, take me away!!

Also, I have managed to upend two glasses of liquids today. I'm doomed to spill a third.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
The topic of the day on the DMN bogs is a new library, but is turning out to be about libraries in general. [link]
This strikes me as being completely ignorant of the function and value of a library.
A the risk of hurting Betsy's feelings, I absolutely do not use the public library, never have and never will. Not unless major changes are made to make the the libraries more of community meeting places and less focused on collections of books. I love books. But I think libraries, especially branch libraries, are a waste of space as they exist now. They duplicate effort with school libraries and rec centers. I think if we're going to have them, they need to be transformed into gathering places for all sorts of activities, combined with rec centers, perhaps, and focused more on multimedia.
Thoughts from buffista librarians.

My boss's boss's last day is today. After thirty-five years here, he's being laid off. He was going to retire in a year or two anyway, so I hope they gave him a really good package.
