Unfortunately, the "TV" is a 6-hour training session on our new product, so it's not exactly five star entertainment. But it is curling up in my cuddler with a giant mug for 6 hours and not thinking.

Your team hiring abroad? ;)

Amusingly enough, no, they weren't Indian. One's from Central America and the other from South America. But yes, not from the U.S.

NH... she's asking you for a job!

WTH, Vanykrye! I posted that, recognized that I was responding to the wrong thing, and deleted it, all in under 120 seconds.

What do you do, have a daemon monitoring FaWtL?

No denial I can ever make is going to be believed at this point.

I was sad yesterday. I made Guy Fawkes/Gunpowder Plot/5th of November references in meetings yesterday and everyone was just confused by them.


Hello, everyone.

The Cap'n isn't anyone's saint. He's his own entire pantheon.


I also don't plow snow, I usually use a snow blower.

I'm laying down pavers, co-worker found a devious way to motivate me, he screeded out all around the giant fire rock we're putting pavers around with my coffee sitting on the fire rock, so the only way to get to my coffee was to build the patio to it.

Well played.


You gotta be effing kiding me...

I bought (and already finished) Crying Suns on sale last Sunday... And now it is part of Humble Choice...

Argh.


He also picks the most complicated patterns and then claims he can't see the pattern so I have to lay all the pavers.

"It's mostly dicks and helmets!" I'd tell him.


It's all good, that's why we work together, he sees the big picture and I work on the small details.


It is ridiculously nice outside and its Friday. How is there THIS much work still left to do?


I'm working until late tonight myself.

Ugh.

On the one hand, last night's low was only 57°F and it's 72°F outside right now, so it's not like we're actually experiencing anything remotely akin to Fall or Winter.

On the other hand, last night GothBard got so cold that I had to bring in the portable heater from the studio to warm up the room this morning.

So today I turned on all the pilots and the heat is on in my house.

The Bay Area. We don't measure seasons by the weather (because we don't have any). We measure them by when we turn on and off our various climate control devices.


It was 74 degrees today, and sunny. I got a lot done.

We have a lot of crossover.


Though more recently my tastes are more hip hop, punk and grunge.


Co-worker: I'll let you lay down the pavers since you see the pattern

Me: I didn't pick it out!

Co-worker: I kno.. wait a minute, yes, you did!

Me: Oh, right, That'll show me!

Co-worker: It's always the person that you least expect!

Me: No, I'm not surprised.


Doctor: "Describe your average night."
Me: "They were a lot of armor."
Doctor: "No, I mean at bedtime."
Me: "They probably take it off."

Hey, captain yesterday, I've got an idea for your next patio. 1000 square feet of random pavers in all different sizes, colors, and shapes, laid out randomly. Make sure there is one large stone, a different color from any of the others, set in the center of one edge. Tell the homeowners that if they stand on that stone and let their eyes relax, that they will see a 3D image of a schooner appear like one of those magic eye posters. Of course, it's b+~*~@%~, but I wonder if you can get them to say that they can see it just because they're too self-conscious to admit that they can't see it.

Tonight, ALL (DE) kindly crocheted me a jumbo War Yarmulke in vivid psychedelic hues. Wearing it, I look kinda like the percussionist in a 70s jazz-rock band called Norman Griswold's Serendipity, or something, and that is a bloody fantastic outcome if you ask me.

I have done a 4 color patio before, it was pretty ugly.


I would love to do a two or three color 3-d pattern patio though, I could do some pretty crazy s+*+ with that.


I just like the music I like.

Unfortunately right now, only if you're willing to move to Atlanta.


About to go home. Have a good weekend, everyone.


Good four mile run this am.

Im the worst human ever.

According to the cats who just got brushed.


According to Dead Reign, a zombie apocalypse rpg, society begins to collapse in Chicago and then Milwaukee.

I'm not surprised.

Edit: I was wrong! It started to collapse in Milwaukee while a biker gang from Chicago was on a ride up to Milwaukee to get away from the chaos in Chicago.

I'm even less surprised.


It's Saturday morning.
I've been at work for the last two hours prepping for the coming week.
Later today, I get to make bread, do laundry, do my meal planning and grocery shopping for the week, prep for tomorrow's game, and take Hermione to Nutcracker rehearsal.

Explain to me how the weekend is supposed to be time "off"?

FML.

Me, Tuesday: "Thank God after today everyone will shut up about politics"

Nevada, Pennsylvania and Georgia: "NOPE! WE WILL NEVER LET THIS END!"


You should enter my world, my side of the family are all political activists or political lobbyists.

And then everyone on the General's side are wack wannabe rednecks so they've been making hard choices between hording their ammo for after January (because they're convinced redacted will take all their guns because that's what liberals do) and using it for hunting season.


HAPPY N7 DAY!

Without getting political, now I have to keep a promise and teach Hermione to make brownies for dessert tonight.

Or you could give her an early lesson about politics, and fail to uphold whatever you promised.

I am playing Darksiders III, and... Well. It feels inferior than previous games, the dodging is clumsy and the enemies kill you in just a few hit, so I die often. Which wouldn'yt be an issue if I wasn't playing on second out of five or six difficulty levels.


Also, the graphics is meh. I have textures on high quality and most other setting around medium... All the characters look like plastic dolls.

So, on the one hand, I know that this is no different from fans who trash their own cities when their team wins the Super World Series Cup Bowl, but as I was telling both the kids, once the final results are announced there will be riots in Berkeley and Oakland one way or the other, because it's what we do.

So one more night of them being banned from going out for the evening, then I'm hoping calm prevails. Time will tell.

EDIT: It is kind of funny living in this neighborhood, though. In spite of our neighbor's avid singing, drumming, chanting, and so forth (a very "New Age" music teacher), she's usually very good about closing her windows when she's being noisy outside of the "standard" 10-4 day.

So this morning when she came into her back yard and started whooping at the top of her lungs at 9:00 am, and I heard an air horn from a block away, I figured something had happened...
