I'm about an hour late, but...
It's Tesla day! Or it still is in time zones west of here, anyway.
You are not forgotten, sir.

a Midsummer post will come later
For now, I'll celebrate the fact that Sylvain Chavanel is now the five-time time trial champion of France. That's a new record! What's more, he won by two minutes. :D! Magnifique, Sylvain.
Biased, me? Why however did you guess? :)

Fic: Cat's In The Cradle
This fic hit me on Friday morning and would not leave me alone till it got written down. I wasn't expecting Michael to put his two cents in, but he has.

I honestly do enjoy the interaction-based part of my job, but being stuck in a chair in a cube... is less pleasant. Thank goodness for WisCon. Also for paid time off, but that's another story ( Read more... ) -
just for the record
Hormonal issues of the PMS kind+a recently-acknowledged case of pretty dang severe skin hunger+a general lack of self-confidence and the usual depressive and anxiety-related issues = a night worse than a drop. At least a drop is predictable. The combination tonight had me outright sobbing on at least two occasions, not to mention questioning the ( Read more... ) -
this sharding week
Really. That's all that need be said. Last evening was the exception that proved the blasted rule! This *week*.
I could use a drink. Sheez. I'll be in the blanketfort, which is open to all, by the way. *topples*

the one day I'm not following the news
I had a customer ask me, in the midst of my getting all her address information in place prior to taking her order, 'So what do you think about this Boston Marathon ( Read more... )
