Daily Community update:

This morning's getting-ready-for-school episode was the Troy and Abed bodyswitch in Season 4. After they stared at each other, stared at themselves, pulled their waistbands out to check out their new equipment, and then looked back up with nods and "Pretty good... all righty, then!" expressions, Matilda said, surprised, "So they never saw each other's belly buttons before?"

Happy b-day, tommyrot!

There was other stuff, can't brane, sleep will eat me.

Wow, Dana!

Wow, Dana -- that sounds amazing!

Almost as amazing (?) is how hot it is here! Why did I wear a coat?? Maybe winter is really over! (Pay no attention to the snow in the forecast...)

I'm wearing drawstring linen palazzo pants, with the very wide leg. It feels like a complete surrender to middle-aged fatness, but my god, these pants are comfortable.

That's exciting, Dana!

Jesse, how hot is "hot"?

msbelle, I hope you are getting some compensation for all this nonsense--weather they won't compensate for, but mechanicals they should (even if they don't offer, if you write to them to complain they often will)

Jesse, how hot is "hot"?

50!

Yeah, baby!

Last Wednesday (I think), after a long spell of cold including going below 0 (yes, zero), the weather report started off with, "it's warm ... 38".

So, I added a percentage difference calculation to a report I maintain, and one of my co-workers was confused about it. I got her straightened out enough, I think but at one point she was saying "foo is 40% above blah" and I corrected her with "blah is 40% below foo" (because it's a percentage of foo) and she said "I think we are saying the same thing". I do not have time to teach you that today, co-worker, I'm sorry!

The weather where we are going is supposed to be highs in the forties lows in the thirties so I am loaded up with fleeces and whatnot. Because that is cold. t /spoiled Californian
