I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

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.

ION, my company's developers are nerds (no shock). Apparently the secret code name for our next version is Vibranium.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, you guys are awfully good at helping people write their self-evaluations -- can you help me write one for someone else? She's so great and kind of leaning out a little in the coming year, so it's tough to come up with three areas for her to work on.

Leaning out? So...she'll need to focus on prioritizing, communicating, and maybe delegating?

Am I crazy, or is there no way to see the discussion here? [link]

I think you're supposed to click the link to listen to the interview rather than there being a transcript to read.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It is a link to join an online discussion though? So you can comment, but not see other people's comments?? I am confused.

Whereas I spend a lot of time looking down and reading, so it's time to give in and get them.

You will also avoid looking like a crazy person -- or my grandmother -- with three pairs of glasses on hand.

Thank you! Actually delegating is a really good one.

I'm really happy with my progressive lens though it makes me feel like I've lost a fight of some sort.

Our local Y bought a tiny gym that had an outdoor pool. The pool is unheated, which when it's this temp, is not a problem. Noah loves to go because pool but also because a former schoolmate also is there on occasion. He needs to spend more time in the water, so that's what our summer is going to be.

In other news, the fires make the mornings tough. Especially because it's right near the trail where we normally run. My crazy running team? Has run 6518.5 miles since a week ago. I've gone 60 miles. We have another 3000 miles to go before next week.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

As I've gotten older, I no longer need a reading prescription--even with them on I found myself yanking them off to read fine print or see close detail. I have bifocals, but they're my distance vision on top, and computer distance on the bottom. Perfect for driving, since I can see signage and traffic in front of me, and also read the dashboard. I wear them to watch tv, too. But for most things around the house, I just wear the single prescription computer glasses. Laptop, and anything I'm doing within arms' length--which includes cooking prep, laundry, etc., and also, shopping, as reading book spines or can labels is easier with the computer glasses, and peering at them with my chin pointed at the ceiling looks more ridiculous than juggling two pairs of glasses.

But whatever works best for you is what you should do.

How big is your team?
