"One more day" seems to happen a lot when one is in hospital for almost anything.
We got the word that today is a short day, hooray! Especially since I assumed it would be and did not bring any lunch.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

I asked Tim if he was working a full day, and he said "Well, I might leave early. Like 4:30." Living on the edge there, bro.
t edit To be fair, he usually works until 6 or 6:30, and on Thursdays I'm lucky if he's home before 8 p.m. So for him, 4:30 *is* early.

Also, internet, I noticed that most sites have now gone to having the password field completely blind instead of at least showing the letters briefly. That seriously ups the wrong password factor.
I again hate the cloud. It once again won't sync. If the damn program is on the computer, you can just run it.

Yup. I mistype like a mofo, but I can usually catch it if I can see the letters at least as I am typing them. A lot of sites used to have a box you could check if you wanted to make your password visible but that seems to be out of fashion.

Which is why I hate the idea of cloud-based everything. My productivity should not be based on systems I have no control over.

Yeah, very hate passwords. And I have a password manager on my computer but inevitably I'm trying to log in to some obscure account on someone else's laptop or something and then it's not helpful because I have no idea the random characters it picked!
Also, I love the Billfold and this article amused me because I was like "hey, I know that sister she keeps referencing!": [link]

I'm actually in this dilemma, mostly out of laziness. We've been married over 2 years, and I go by Stephanie [birth name] [married name] professionally, but I haven't actually legally changed my name. I really ought to do it.
I'm not giving up my gmail address, though. (I also grabbed slbeckmeyer as a gmail address when we got engaged, though I don't use it.)

I am in Minneapolis. I just bought a salad and a hunk of smoked Gouda at a wine and cheese shop. My next flight should board soon.

Woot! I get to leave two hours early today and claim full hours! Yay, seniority!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I have thus far been lazy this morning. Some general straightening up. Packing up two ebay sales for mailing. Clearing some things off the TiVo. I have a lot I could do with the day, kinda of overwhelmed with options (which seems to happen a lot and often results in nothing getting done):
- list more things for sale (specifically any toys or potential gift items)
- start cooking my items for tomorrow
- call fence people since all other fence people have fallen through
- make dr appts.
ok, there are more, but just writing that out made it clear that I need to do the calls today since today is the only real work day of this week and those calls need to be made on a workday.
