Given that I had to drastically reduce my day's plans, I have selected nail polish instead of taxes. I think that's reasonable, right?

Yeah. I fail at Onerous Task Day. Can I have tomorrow as a make-up task day?

They couldn't have put this information on the sign in the store?

Perhaps they are encouraging exercise too.

Just was talking to my mom about a local figure and said, "When Joe Schmo (except I used his real name) knows it's a skeevy thing, it's a really skeevy thing. ... Maybe don't repeat I said that?" I have total class.

Okay, sorting clean clothes into "I need to pack you" and "I need to put you away" and mourning I don't have a robot for this. Socks are going to be a significant part of my luggage.

Awww, my husband gets my jokes! And so does Suzi!

I have exactly two onerous tasks. One isn't really all that onerous, just mildly irritating, but the other is looking to be impossible. Is anyone more familiar than me with Blogspot? Is there some very obvious "Contact Me" tab or button that I'm missing if you want to contact a particular Blogspot blogger, or is the only way to do it just to comment on a blog entry?

I'm trying to figure out how to get hold of two different people about bloggish matters that are specific to them but only tangential to the actual blog entries in question, and I don't want to just post a query letter in a comment box; it just seems tacky. But no matter where I look, Blogspot is thwarting me. Am I being a complete idiot and not seeing what I'm looking for, or am I being a complete idiot for continuing to look for what's in fact not there?

Sox, I thought the 1-2-3 list was the programmer writing back (and quoting South Park) saying, "Uh, how exactly are you going to make money doing this?"

hah, likely. darn you, super-speedreading-superpower

JZ, I am glad your new workplace is so awesome. I hope it continues to be so.

My onerous task for today was an iron infusion. 4 down and (hopefully) only 1 more to go!

I think I achieved my onerous task, although the onerous part is trying to psych myself into it, not really the writing.

Is there some very obvious "Contact Me" tab or button that I'm missing if you want to contact a particular Blogspot blogger, or is the only way to do it just to comment on a blog entry?

No, there is not. Yes, it is annoying.

Especially since you then have to post your email publically to allow people to contact you directly (I use my old NYU email that I use here).

If I hadn't added a Contact Me page, I probably never would have been invited out by that other blogger.

Hmmmm, I have bananas and now we have cognac. I'm having a Dave Chapelle moment.

My truly onerous task is to try and finish a fic for a challenge. It's due next Monday and I need to get my two hunks together by then.
