WHY don't people use the Outlook Calendar that we have? WHY, WHY, WHY, do we have to go back and forth about when our 3 bosses can meet when one person could look at all the calendars and see who is available?

Oh yeah. People here sort of use their calendars, but there's always one, "Oh... Fridays aren't good for me." So mark it busy in your calendar!!

I *love* DST! It's the sucky fall-back and dark at noon portion of the year that does me in. I just feel like hibernating, like a bear, till the sun comes back, am grumpy and difficult to motivate.

Me too me too me too! Changing the clocks is a PITA, but I'd prefer DST all the time to the other way around.

Okay, this is not an efficient process. Don't email me and tell me I need to get the approval of Guy A and Guy B, and when I reply to you asking how, tell me "Reach out to them, and they will ask you the following questions:"

Dude, if you already know what they will ask me, tell me in the first email, so I can tell them that right away. Because I got so impatient waiting for your answer that I reached out to them without the answers to those questions. Now I have to follow up on my own email, and I look stupid. Document. Document and display. Please.

When I asked a friend of mine to play live music at my funeral, he really truly freaked out and thought I was considering suicide. I'm not sure how to tell him that a) I'm not the "cry for help" sort of person and b) he's not on the list of people I'd cry for help to. However, he would make great music at my funeral, and I don't consider it odd to discuss that. He, on the other hand--strangely for the spiritually evolved person he considers himself, really couldn't discuss it. I feel weirded out by his weirded outness.

Now that I think about it, I can sorta see why someone might think that the "music at my funeral" conversation is a subtle cry for help, but on the other hand, it strikes me as one of those standard conversations. I know I've had it elsewhere as well.

Heh.

The SO always asks excellent chefs to cook for his funeral. Sometimes it truly distresses them, and sometimes they're all, okay, when will it be? Send me the address! However, we have been fortunate enough to have eaten a lot of good food in our day, so there may be a battle of chefs.

It's actually warm here, too, but I didn't know that. And I stumbled around sleepily (dog was up sick last night...because he stole burnt pizza off the counter), stoking the fire, and then went outside for more wood. At which point I realized it was 64 degrees inside the house and 66 degrees outside. Oops. Well, at least I'm getting a nice cuppa out of it?

It's 77 out. However, being outside is a little more eyestrain than I need. Eye was really bad this morning, but is not stingy right now. Managed to 'be' at my meeting. Been staying off the computer.

Man, boooorrrrriiiiiinggggg.

May hit 70 here today. Snow possible on Saturday/Sunday. Spring in Utah. But the people are obviously doing a pushback on the calendar, because there are more and more of them out and about, demanding to be outside now that there's more light.

Still snowing. IDEK

I need to get out and about and do some weeding before the horehound takes over my yard, but I don't wanna because it's windy. Only, it's only mildly windy and not blow the guitar cases off the deck windy which it apparently was during our vacation. Wind is the worst season.

It's beautiful here. I'm not sure of the temperature, but perfect might be a good guess. I have the window of my office open and I can smell freshly cut grass from outside.
