RE: The bear article. A) You think that once the bear broke into your garage once and raided the fridge in there, you'd realize that it's not a good place for a fridge and remove it. B) That bear is the Rasputin of bears.
I was discouraged from taking typing in HS since it was not in the Academic (oollege prep) stream of classes, and I rue that decision to this day.
Clio's tail, while not 100%, seems much better than even this morning. I may cancel her appointment for tomorrow. IOCatN, I caught Oz tasting the road salt this afternoon. Weirdo cat.
I took in a few small prints to get franed today and bought groceries. Those two errands took three hours.
I deleted, and now I'm having second thoughts.
Well, if someone has your address erroneously in their contact list, they'll send something else soon enough. If it was just a typo, they'll chalk it up to the vagaries of the internets.
Jeopardy are doing online test for future contestants Jan 26th-28th:

I took typing. I was horrible at it. Thank you for computers, and a back space that erases things, and spell check. I have some speed , if I am not thinking I touch type, but mostly I am a 6 fingered typist.
4 back spaces in this post.
I'm totally doing that, Sue! Thanks for the link. I went to a IRL Jeopardy test a few years ago and the test questions are SO much harder than the TV show questions. But I was close!
I used to get emails from someone I didn't know. Pictures of her kids. I knew just enough people by her first name that I wasn't sure at first. Eventually , they stopped.
My forearms are getting sore from typing.
Paging ita - my workplace has an ergonomic self-analysis thingy. [link]
Apologies in advance for the spinning mascot thingy. If you don't want or have time to do the walkthrough, click on "Office Ergonomics" on the left.
I used to keep the list of keyboard shortcuts open in a tab, b/c they cut down on the hand pain that mousing causes me.
The first thing I'm going to do after I lose my weight after surgery is to try out for Jeopardy.
Well, the second. The first thing after I get down to 300 pounds (next Christmas if everything works out well) is to start planning my first ever trip abroad, to England, hopefully for summer 2011. By the time I go, I'm hoping to be down to at least 230, which will be where I was when I was 16 years old.
That bear is the Rasputin of bears.
Right? I mean bullets bounce off his face. And we're not talking a peashooter with a .44.
Jeez, I stumbled onto a Tim Burton interview on Charlie Rose (it's about his exhibit at MoMa) and Charlie Rose is such an annoying, fatuous fuck. They had the museum people on and they were interesting, and Tim Burton is interesting and Charlie Rose...well, he's a fatuous fuck. I hate him. He asks shitty questions that are filled to the brim with stupid, conventional, dumbfuck notions. Why does he get to talk to interesting artists?! He doesn't know shit from shinola.
Steampunk kitchen! In Paris. I would like to live there please.
