Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Just went to Trader Joe's. They did not have the split pea soup or the pad thai that I like. I did get plenty of other stuff, though.
Also, note to self: the proper order is, step one, put down grocery bag; step two, hail cab. Ow.
I should probably go into the office and do work this afternoon.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I took a picture of a projector part we needed to order and because I didn't know what it was called (I now know it's a Simplex Gate Retainer) I labelled the image "thingy". Now I'm getting copies of emails going up the order chain referring to the thingy.
I can't decide if I'm being mocked or celebrated.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
So there's this thing at work, where many of the women, including those who have no kids and no intention of having any, are using diaper bags to cart their laptops around. It's kinda brilliant in that the bags are lightweight, shoulder-friendly, easily wiped off, and relatively cheap. I'm thinking of nabbing something like this before my flight tomorrow, instead of lugging my ginormous wheeled pack thing. What say you all? Clever? Ridiculous? Only a good idea if I throw down for one of the $98 Zosephine bags?

“Not dead yet!”
Huh-- hadn't thought of that, but makes perfect sense.
I will say, it was at Target that I found the best laptop bag ever in the luggage aisle. Nylon, padded interior, great shoulder strap and on sale for ten bucks. If you can, you should check the luggage aisles, Calli.

You're asking the girl who carried a fishing tackle box as a purse through most of high school.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I still haven't given up hope of owning this laptop bag. Warning: Bag porn.

My laptop bag is a messenger bag I got free from work (plus a neoprene sleeve), but I can vouch for the Skip Hop line of diaper bags being very sturdy and shoulder-friendly.

I'd like the Zosephine bag a lot better if they had more pictures of what the inside and back looked like! It looks really nice, but I want pictures from all sides and inside before I commit to buying something online. Hrmph.

I"m thinking for my next trip to the research library I'm just going to put my laptop in the bookbag and try not to bash it into anything. The bag I've got weighs almost as much as the laptop.
