The Tumblr format is letting me do what I prefer which is quickly skim the articles and not have to deal with pretending I care that people are talking about it.

Work stuff: it looks like we are on track to hit our Nov. 16th release date, whoo! We just found out our ship party (which I have been told will be heavy on the DRINK HEAVILY options) is also Nov. 16th. I'm totally treating it as a pre-funk for my birthday the next day.
I just saw six political ads in a row. The first and third were the same Romney ad.
Here's how to make yourself feel old - start up a conversation with a co-worker about how you got back and forth to work during the transit strike (i.e. the last time there was no subway service) and have him respond with "Yeah, it took me 3 or 4 hours to get home from school that week." Realize he's talking about HIGH SCHOOL and you're talking about commuting from the same job you still have today.
Hah I was talking with someone today who LOOKED like an adult, at work, but the thing I needed info on happened in 1984, and she was all "I wasn't even born then!" And I'm all "omg how are you old enough to be someone's boss??"

Laptop being worked on. I heart my geek DH.
Hey, new adhesive release method! It's a little weird realizing that my problems with bandages are simliar to neonates and the elderly. But whatever, because now maybe bandages won't tear up my skin so badly.

They should serve absinthe as one of the DRINK HEAVILY options.
I think I need this method too!

Man, my formerly-gothy editor and I would get SO smashed. And then burble at each other about Robert Smith and Tim Burton.
