Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

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

No plastic rectangle for me today.

I've just tried a mechanical gaming keyboard for the first time, and my god, this is nice. I just bought two of the same type, one for home and one for work. This is the typing I remember, keeping up with my brain with accuracy and speed. My current keyboard has the keys too close together and mushy enough that it's too easy to hit the neighbor. I've hated it since I got it. The mechanical one has glowy lights on it, too. It's such a gamer nerd keyboard. It's noisy, but I feel like my fingers are the servant of my brain again instead of flailing, useless things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have hot water! Which I didn't this morning, so that's good. And the heat is kicking on finally, which seemed dicey earlier.

Boo!

I have hot water!

Yay!

Punishingly Intricate

Agile is hell for the documentation side of any org. HELL

That's not been my experience.

I have a horrible suspicion I caught a SCRUM training scum. I'm gonna blame senior management

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm gonna blame senior management

Always.

How is it not even 5pm here? It feels so much later!! And yet possibly at midnight I'll be like "oh shoot I was going to sleep...".

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Do you have a writer embedded with each scrum team, lisah?
