Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
And eventually it will be over and I don't want that.
That, too. I mean it's a lot of books, so I shouldn't be greedy, but...I am.
(Last Stand of Dead Men is the only SP book that I haven't re-read. I just give it the stinkeye when I see it on the shelf. I'll re-read it eventually, just...not for a while. And it's not that it wasn't good; far from it. That fucking book.)
I think I'm going to have to tank a build schedule in a meeting in 10. I'm sorry, if you cannot configure the test system so that I can acceptance test, I'm not letting you configure ops.
I know what you mean. ETA: that was to Tep. I do not really know what sarameg means, although it sounds reasonable.
There is a page in the back announcing that Derek Landry will be starting a new series in 2015. So there's that.
I really do need to write Derek Landy and tell him we used dialogue from Dark Days in our wedding vows.
our next-door neighbors get a UPS delivery almost every week day
Sketchy 'business' aside, I'm just marveling that people can get UPS to deliver a package at all, let alone one every weekday.
UPS is, for some reason, the reliable delivery service in our neck of the woods. USPS is from hell.
I get a UPS delivery every couple days. Because I shop online a lot. Now I wonder what my neighbors think. Nah, I don't care what they think.
Not reading Buffistas will be especially hard. But if I open up the computer to do anything, I will soon be all over FB and Tumblr and it will be five hours later when I surface. Cold turkey is the only way.
Now I wonder what my neighbors think.
I am that neighbor. But I'm home all day! I notice things! (There's nothing else TO notice, really, other than delivery vehicles.)

Are you off work next week?
When I was a UPS helper, I found out the drivers know their routes and customers, down to who gets packages inside the screen door, or around the back out of sight of the street or whatever. And some people got multiple packages nearly every day. (Note: it WAS in December, in a very expensive neighborhood in Boston, but still.)
Are you off work next week?
Yes.
I wish my UPS drivers understood that the fence blocking their way onto my porch is in fact a gate, as can be seen from the prominent latch. Mainly I wish they wouldn't fling packages over it.
