'Get It Done'
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.
Argh - why don't people RSVP? I have a confirmed 8 but possibly 13 kids coming to Dylan's party on Saturday, which is incredibly annoying because party favors come in 12-packs.
[My plan for now is to buy enough for 13 kids but not open them all, so if less than 12 kids are there I can return the unopened stuff. It doesn't take that long to throw a few sheets of stickers into a party bag.]
IT asks for my password occasionally. But we're a small enough organization that I know all of them. If a stranger came to my cube asking for my password, I'd probably check in with the IT manager before giving it to him/her.

This has always been the most annoying part of the kids' birthdays. I've wound up tracking people down and calling them at the last minute, and that's ridiculously irritating.
I told the upgrade guy about the social engineering and he told me to change my password. Which isn't the point. I trust they've forgotten it and the other thousands by now. And because of how our email us set up, they can't seamlessly upgrade us without logging in as us. I get that too.
It's just funny.
A Catholic friend of mine is fond of pointing out that the RCC has no problem with evolution, because that is how God obviously prefers to work. It's only when you bump into Protestant ideas like Biblical inerrancy that you run into fallacies.
Yes, I do believe he went to a Jesuit-taught high school....
TINO just sent me an incredibly snotty email....with the wrong spreadsheet attached. I feel both annoyed and validated.
Consuela, I hadn't climbed in years, but I knew I'd need a new one if I did. Don't they recommend changing every five or so?
Today bob bob is taping a game show at magic mountain (cash cab on coasters, I'm told) but *I* am eavesdropping on the talent agent next door trying to get m&ms to agree that a candy hold Does Not include gum commercials. Fun all around!

Depends on whether you've taken a lot of falls on it (I hadn't: I'm very conservative, even climbing indoors) and whether it's been in the heat or sunlight a lot (which degrades the nylon--never use gear that's been stored for a long time in a car trunk, for instance).
I should probably retire all my ropes, too... Sigh.
I'm not proud of it, but my initial reaction to reading a blurb about a new Lynrd Skynrd-themed restaurant was to wonder if the tables are going to be mounted in the remains of crashed vehicles.
