I think the weather equipment in a town north of here is broken. They're showing 111% humidity. I think we would have noticed if they'd melted.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I am doing some time tracking at work (because we were asked to estimate how much time I spent on each individual class that I support, which is not how my job description is broken up)-- and my boss and I had a terrible time. I am using this software called toggl, which is a time, and you can track by projects.
It is a little ridiculous, because I do my work by batches like "emails", but now I am tracking which class the email is for, or if it is "general", and I have things that I do that take 30 seconds or less in this manner. So I might spend a half hour answering emails, but some of them, for some classes, take less than a minute!
Also, do most people actually work the whole time they are at work? I have no idea where to put the "buffistas" time??

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Sanity maintenance"?

What's the category for filling out the stupid tracker? Seems like that's going to be a big one.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
I've been working on our Hubble 25th event for the planetarium and sarameg just made my job harder!
But in a very, very good way. (i.e.: embarrassment of riches!)
YAY SCIENCE!

Those are good!
I am seriously frustrated by this "per class" thing. I mean, I understand, but it is so opposite of the way I do things. For example, one of my tasks is to save the syllabi for all classes to a public drive once per semester. This takes about 10 minutes or less for about 40 classes. But I have to track it by class.

Yeah Sophia, definitely more time spent on tracking that task than doing it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Sophia, I used to have to do that for things that might take a few minutes at a time but would add up over the course of the day. I'd make a guess, break it down into what I was doing for each and just ball-park it. (My sanity maintenance/enrichment time was melded in with the work time, since that was also intermittent throughout the day.)
