Best thoughts to your BIL and to you, too, Sue! Hospitals are no place to be. I mean, unless it's the only right place you have to be.
I just packed my office to move, and I did it in 100% the wrong order. Like, I would like to wipe down my bookshelves and stuff, but I put the wipes and spare napkins in the bottom crate!
Right, Zen? The other one I came across was Sacagawea, at least that makes sense.
For those not on the Book of Face, Crowley and Winter (Kelly's 8 week old golden puppy) met today. They do pretty well, she instigates play and Crowley is thrilled, though we do have to call peace every now and then. Currently Crowley is running laps around my huge ottoman at full speed. Winter is also trying to run laps but he keeps lapping her. Each time he passes, she sits, looks around, and then she starts trying to run again...Crowley never stops.
Well, in the time it took me to write that, they have moved on to wandering around and sniffing butts. Crowley is SO HAPPY to have a playmate, he drools all over her.
Puppies! I have seen the pictures on hte Book of Face, and Winter is so fluffy!
ION, I adore online shopping. I've bought some v-necked t-shirts in colors I like and can never find in the store, and hte precise socks I want that would require traipsing from store to store just to see if *maybe* they'd be in stock. Oh, and heel pads that will work in sandals. The Sears' Catalog of days gone by had the right idea. It still boggles me that the Internet has become a utility like electricity, not just a luxury.
Huh. There are dogs trained to detect hidden electronic equipment and my police department apparently has one. Huh.
I can actually see how that would be useful. Bug detection, as it were.
The write up mentioned hidden hard drives and flash drives.
Health~ma for your BiL, Sue.
The Sears' Catalog of days gone by had the right idea.
Oh, yes. I want a few colors of Bermuda shorts for the summer in 2x. Finding them in a local store would be next to impossible. Online, I can get them in a variety of cloth and color options.
Oh crap. I'm down to 2 top candidates and hr is weighing in with diversity factor in close calls (which I am totally pro) but was completely invisible to me, so not really an unconscious bias factor at play, at least for me (in fact, an unconscious bias I'd be prone towards against social,uhg, norms, given my background, had I a clue) but means I'm going to have to come up with words rather than what my gut said in the shower tomorrow morning if I don't chose her (it's really up to me, everyone else agrees any would fit, it's just going to be my minion, thus my call.)
It's fair, and I'm glad my work is trying, given how damned white male my field is and how many not white guysI've seen dropped or driven to the wayside.
So, minor whine.
