The band on my laptimer broke, I sliced my finger open trying to fix it, the candidate with actual ideas that I voted for lost to the uninspiring heir-apparent (did well considering, but still) and stupid fedex tried to deliver at noon and website won't cooperate let me hold the package for pickup.
I'm over everything. I'm about 3 months overdue for a vacation, but that's not in the near future either, not even much of a staycation (which is what I really want, since I have more ideas than sense and am dropping $$ on necessary house investments like whoa this year, which I don't mind but still) because I'm pretty much fucked for time at work, which is not my fault. But ANYONE giving me stinkeye for vacation time in 2015 might get punched.
OK, I've managed to get the package (I suspect an ipad mini) to be held at the Fedex facility on campus. I can walk over and pick it up tomorrow.
One down...
Who is the iPad from, sara? That's a fun package!
Parents. Early bday present. Dragging my techy-ass along. (I was all, you can buy me an industrial fan! Or a snowblower!) They are rapidly outpacing me in terms of gadgets. Which is hilarious as they are the ones that raised such a philistine. And now they have cable and iphones and ipads and minis and @@.
Or a casement AC unit! Except, they know I'd buy those for myself anyway. NSM computer stuff.
So, looking around google for images to take to the hairdresser on Thursday, I came across this site, which totally made me think of David.
She's very game! I could probably do a similar set of galleries for JZ's haircuts over the last ten years.
Tom Vermont is nice this year. Lots of rural, and quiet. There are mountains, meadows, lakes, streams. A city if you want it, but on a much smaller scale. Lots of good food.
I was able to find the point of intersection between the tangent line and the line through the circles' centers pretty quickly, but then figuring out how to construct the tangent line was where I was stumped. I don't totally remember the train of thought that eventually got me to the solution.
Would you like me to put a bit more about what I came up with?
Meanwhile, a link on the reproductive habits of echidnas, in fairly explicit detail (and with pictures, so, you know, be warned). I've commented previously on the four-headed penises of the males; this articles adds the news that echidna sperm travels in gangs of up to 100, making them faster at reaching the egg and presumably giving them an advantage in West Side Story-style dance-fights.

When you're a gamete you're a gamete all the way.
Made it to jury duty. The two-bus voyage to the suburbs would have actually been super quick and easy if not for the 20 minute wait in between buses. Wish me luck!
