Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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.
Drew will be situated on the robotic arm, and John will be the free-flying (but tethered!) astronaut during EVA #1. It should be an exciting day.
Very exciting! I'll have to check out the YouTube links—thanks for including them! It's amazing how blasé we've gotten about this sort of thing. Humans are floating about in space. Isn't it great that we can get together the mental and physical resources to make that happen?
Just spent an hour reading Medium Large. I'm going to end up with an entire Google Reader folder filled with nothing but web comics.

Louis CK was on a late night talk show complaining about this. How jaded people are that they complain about airline travel--they've lost the awe of flying through the air at hundreds of miles an hour. And they're impatient with their mobile phones--which have to send signals into space while they wait. Very funny bit.
I really need some coffee this morning. Too gronky to make it.
Dylan is so cute!
My mom was in a waiting room somewhere, I think waiting for her car, and everyone was watching the launch. I found this cheering.

I have gotten so bad at picking at my nails - I am making them bleed like everyday. This has to stop. I have one covered up in a bandaid and I am keeping lotion and cuticle cream at hand today to reach for whenever I notice I am bothering them. If I can just go a week or so and get them a bit healed I will get the gel back on and just make a couple of months worth of appointments - maybe that will get it being a habit enough.

IWorkN - everything that I have opened or been brought this morning so far has turned out to be a complicated mess. grr.
I got here and found our network all messed up after a power outage last night. Plus panicky messages from a client about problems with our software. Fixed the first issue; second issue turned out to be not so bad....

Sorry that work is attacking you today.
