Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's very cool.
Oh, and I forgot to get donuts today! And a coworker brought in cookies, so we really don't need them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That was seriously cool.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I had twice baked potato and quesadillas for lunch and I ate the potato with a SPORK, so I win.
I also discovered $20K that was mis-coded into a cost center for the group that actually let me do their budget work. I have now started the process of getting that re-coded, so I think they should give me a bonus for saving them money - right?
Since I did well with that, I am now looking at their cell phone bills and I think I can save them over $5K more. I already found $300 they were paying by mistake. Small $$ in the scheme of things, but still.
OH, AND I HAVE A PECAN PRALINE SO I WIN MORE.

Winner winner chicken dinner!
I was already thinking about having roasted potatoes for dinner, possibly just roasted potatoes.

I almost got the twice baked potato AND mac & cheese, but I thought that was a little simple-carb overload, even for me.
I am tired like a tired thing, but after work tonight I am driving to OKC. Mac and me in a hotel woohoo - adventure time, trying to get him to relax into the idea of a vacation.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I swear to god a formerly reasonable (well, she thinks actions have consequences in The Vampire Diaries, so she's not all there) IO9 poster seems to be saying that a Creationist and Stephen Hawking are two sides of the same coin. And as an agnostic, she feels superior to both, because she has no faith at all, so she'll never be wrong. I don't get the impression Stephen Hawking minds being wrong, if he learns what is right in the same moment. At least, not compared to your average Creationist who holds to the 6000yr timeline, which is what was under discussion. But that's a vibe, not a fact.
However, if she equates the 6000yr timeline with modern physics, at the simplest of things, she's equating something that *is* proven wrong with something that isn't, and how are those equivalent?
I must be reading her wrong.

I am grumpy because this list: [link] doesn't indicate how the arrests/investigations/court cases went. Some of those guys, maybe all, were guilty. But I don't even know how many were found guilty. I can get my knickers in a twist about the no contests, but not about all the rest.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Some people are invested in being right. Others in knowing the truth. I think Stephen Hawking just really wants to know. I admire that.
