The smell culprit has been found--a co-worker has a USB cooler on her desk, and at least a couple of days ago left some steak in there. She's not here today, and I'm not sure if she was here yesterday, so it may have been here over the weekend. I can't really smell it, but they've brought in an air mover to try and clear it out.
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?

Is LinkedIn the new phishing location?
I got an actual letter in the mail from the UK yesterday telling me of an inheritance of 8.6 million could be mine if I just sent this person my information to confirm my relations to this dead guy.
Someone actually spent a pound to mail it. It must work on some people.

If it's actual paper, then it must be legit. After all, they spend a pound on it.

I'm watching a webcam on Times Square. Several men in red jumpsuits are shoveling snow. It's mesmerizing to watch other people shovel snow.
edit: And the garbage trucks do double-duty as snow plows.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can tell it's warming up and getting wetter out there, but it's still coming down, so I don't want to go shovel. I will regret this later.

Thrive to spite them
I'm watching the Spring Baking Championship, and I'm pretty sure when they announced bunnies as a theme for a challenge, one of the contestants muttered "it could be bunnies."
And she made a comment about their beady eyes being creepy.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Two guys came by and asked if they could shovel the driveway! Score!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
There were three Davids, in either the first or second TableTalk thread, and Dana insisted three was too many, so two of them assumed the pseuds of Manservant Hecubus and Knut Hoarfrost.
I remember the network getting weird because of Columbine and refusing to air Earshot, and the Buffista tape tree, and Joss saying, "Bootleg the puppy." (I had that tape until we moved--long after we had a VCR)

Our HR people definitely use LinkedIn to troll for candidates.
Finally got to wear my snowpants this year! And man, there is nothing as happy as dogs in a fresh snowfall.
