Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Unrelatedly: my office has ants.

Do you want ants? Because that's how you get ants.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Brenda, I saw it on Consumerist too.

All right, most of my moving boxes have found a new home and I have recycled the rest. I only have to get through a very epic day of work tomorrow and then I'm on vacation.

I need to remind myself that sleep deprivation makes everything more awful and that's why going to bed earlier is a great idea.

Sleep is good. Vacation is excellent.

I don't have vacation on the horizon like that, but I have been told there will be cupcakes tomorrow, so that's something. And, of course, more books than I can keep up with coming my way, so I'd better go do what I can to finish up the one I'm in the middle of right now...

This is a short vacation to DragonCon, so it won't be restful, exactly. But I won't be checking my work email!

Books and cupcakes are good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I was doing pretty well on that front yesterday, until my fan fell out of the window and I was up for an hour in the night. Boo!

Was getting increasingly incensed about a coworker's phone beeping somewhere in my hall...until I realized it was a damned bird outside.

Stupid birds.

Coding and Sleeping

I finally got a smartphone this weekend. A nicely cheap Moto E which so far I love. I have Tracfone for a service carrier because I'm allergic to monthly fees so I have very little mobile data, but I'm in range of WiFi most of the day so I don't think that will be a big issue.

It's especially nice because I just set up a cloud service for the family (wife, kids, in-laws) so we could all have calendar, task, file, and contact sharing. I now have that all integrated with my phone :).

So does anyone have any Android apps that are a must-have super-useful cool? I haven't added much so far just some syncing software and a task manager to integrate into my new private cloud. I did install 'Out of Milk' which is proving a nice app for recording a grocery list as I think of things to add.
