Oh man, I hate mopping. I would love one of those.

ETA: But doesn't Roomba have the Scooba?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Does Roomba no longer make the Scooba model?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Does the Scooba do an initial wipe-down with a dust cloth before the mop up?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, and:

I just need to go on record as saying Jesse's (and I think meara uses it too) "hrmph" posts always make me giggle they're so charming. I think I am spelling "hrmph" wrong, though.

Aw. I think maybe meara does say "hrmph." I just say "hmph."

Oh, fuck. I just realized I trusted someone else's documents without checking them, and now it's too late, and I'd better not look.

It looks like the Scooba can vacuum or sweep:

4-stage cleaning process:
1. Preps - picks up dirt, sand and crumbs
2. Washes - uses only clean solution to wash floors (mops just spread around dirty water)
3. Scrubs - powerful brush removes dirt, grime and stuck-on messes
4. Squeegees - lifts dirty water from floors

Our wings are not tired.

Aw. I think maybe meara does say "hrmph." I just say "hmph."

I adore both.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm reading a coroner's report for a male patient who died on a trial, and she says, "The external genitalia are unremarkable."

Well, that's just mean!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The developer next to me keeps popping up and talking quasi-code with me. I'm having a surprisingly good comprehension day and seem to be making good suggestions about stuff I hardly know about.

But between him and the other developer I've had to master nodding sagely when I have absolutely no idea what's going on. I'm flattered they bounce stuff off me, but I'm the data and business analysis chick! I don't speak of the intricacies of Java webscripts.

I am really annoyed that, when I type information into Google about children born abroad becoming US citizens, all I get is pages and pages of birther/Obama is secretly Kenyan crap.

Tell me about it. Researching Russian wedding gifts was pretty much 90% what to bring to your mail order bride. Feh.
