Ninja socks, while nifty, are not my thing, no.

I want ninja socks.

Timelies all!

Sorry about the bugs, Suzi.

Is it so hard to make a device that will disintegrate any living thing smaller than a kitten in a house-sized space while leaving anything larger completely unharmed?

I'm trying to wrap my mind around the socks that just say NINJA on them.

I knew a guy who had VEGAN tattooed on him like that, but bolder. We used to hang out in a gang of four, and since him and his GF were, well, dietarily restricted, we'd eat at the vegan common denominator, instead of places which had vegan options (this is LA. Those are around too.

They're the kind of people who suggest we go for dinner at the raw food place before going to the peak oil movie.

When they broke up, she went back to carnivore, which bugged the fuck out of me, because--bending over backward to not just accommodate, but indulge their dietary choices, and she didn't even have the weight of her conviction behind it.

She's now teaching sex, now that I think about our last contact. Mmm. Sex.

Tabi socks are just 3 steps away from Vibram hell.

There was a release last weekend for the platform I'm primary on. It was a reasonably high-profile one, designed to regain business confidence in our department. I wasn't officially on the release,, since I have my own project.

This week is dealing-with-fallout week. We have a back button that replaces the first link on the body of any page, no matter where or what that link was as well as a couple other issues.

I am not entirely sure how a fix that's supposed to remove a button *entirely* but ends up placing the back button randomly on the page instead gets through three layers of testing.

I'm still the face of the app--the business doesn't officially know I didn't run this release--but I can't look them in the virtual eye when we did something so stupid.

Ugh. Head hurts. Want to hibernate. But even if the work day were over, it doesn't seem the gardening day is.

Tabi socks are just 3 steps away from Vibram hell.

Tim's brother and SiL got their 3 kids (ages 14, 16, and 21) Vibrams for Christmas, and they all wore them when we took them to the movies. I could not stop staring at their feet!

She's teaching sex? How does one teach sex?

I have shoes made by vibram, which I like, but they are not toe shoes. They just have the flexible sole and wide forefoot without...individual toes.

Well, there are sex surrogates.

I'm doing laundry. How did I survive laundromats before wifi?

I wish my apartment building had laundry. It used to, before I moved in.

I heard that in my neighborhood, the mob controls the laundromats, and they pressure landlords into not having laundry on their premises. Dunno if it's true, but it makes a fun Chicago story.
