'War Stories'
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.
Something at work came up that Ihave a really bad feeling about. I'm hoping it ends up being minor, but I don't know.
Dinner was a milkshake. If I eat a full lunch (as I did today because I'd left my lunch at work yesterday and didn't want to chance it so bought an overpriced sandwich) I am so not hungry at dinnertime.
I've given up thinking I can't find the First Family any more adorable than I already do. Check out the "Change Takes Office" slideshow currently featured on the front page of msnbc.com [link]
Especially #4 and #6.

#6 is just too adorable.
I just had a really close call with my computer! Like a jackass, I spilled a little soup on the touchpad area, and I was pretty sure I kept it from getting in any of the crevises, but then the touchpad wasn't working! I restarted, and it seems to be OK now, if a little sticky, but that must be because of leftover shmutz, right?
Sticky in response, or sticky to the touch? Either way, leftover shmutz. Maybe wipe again with a bit of alcohol.
Mac talked about stuff with the therapist. TALKED! It probably wasn't much, but we are trying to push him into doing more with the therapy and this shows good progress.
Sticky in response. Alcohol -- thanks! I was scared to clean it too much with water. That will also clean remaining schmutz off my fingers, which may also be a factor -- of course I had to post here before washing my hands....
Nice, msbelle!
When universal health care kicks in, where are we going to get enough doctors to treat them all?"
OK one difference between us and the UK in 1948 is the huge time sink handling insurance company bullshit is for doctors. Get single payer health care or something that saves a comparable amount of red tape, and the admin time saved can make up for the increase number of patients.
Crap, now the buttons are sporadically acting up -- not responding or sticking down. And the pointer is flying around some on its own. I realize I should be doing this in Tech, but is there anything I can do about this?
