I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I hope you can get the schedule worked out soon, Hil.

One person at my office was home with the flu today. Another was out with strep throat. I feel like sickness is stalking the cube farm.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Oh, goody, the stiff neck/cracking jaw(TMJ flareup)/tight shoulders combo is back...

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh Maria, that's no fair. You shouldn't have to clean up other people's shit in every dang arena of your life!

Because books.

Pinned tabs in Chrome? What's this now?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

So they, like, stay put. You have to unpin them before you can close them, so accidentally closing them is harder. And they'll reopen next time you open Chrome. i think you just right-click the tab and it's one of the options? I'm not on Chrome right now to check.

I'm so tired. Too many meetings today, I'm gonna blame that. And yet, kinda want to open a bottle of red to have with my steak for dinner. Because I can.

I'm getting really tired of putting out fires started by other people. I was supposed to file a problem report that will basically become a major project that dev was supposed to deliver but punted because resources, but now it's ops resources and we don't have enough and are hobbled and so we gotta push back, except I spent all day chasing an urgent problem created by dev and not caught by test because...resources.

And I still haven't been able to reach the roofer or schedule a vet appt.

Also, managed lap average & median in the pool I haven't seen since just before Australia trip nov '12. I don't really fully understand, but I'll take it. Loose, maybe. And maybe Druid wasn't shorter...

Pinned tabs sound useful, but what does right-clicking translate to in Mac?

Usually clicking with the Command (aka, Butterfly) button.
