So windy yesterday and today, that the windows in the building are creaking… sounds like a ship at sea. One of my coworkers claims that she can feel the building move.. I’m not that sensitive to motion – the tower seems pretty dang sturdy to me.

Somehow I doubt this will happen here any time soon, let alone this. Sakes… was Wilma two years ago, already?

We’ve been pretty fortunate, storm-wise lately. One Ice storm on Valentine’s Day… what more reason do you need to stay indoors?


BHK picked me up from work, rather than have me take the Metro home… That shaved 2 hours off of my commute – more quality time with the Missus. We stopped off at *$ for cocoa, and then grabbed a little California Tortilla for take home… watched open season with the in-laws and then played a little classic mario bros before retiring.

The Doodleboard in my website’s toybox is getting a little activity again.. I dig the two newest pix.


Odd that my wordpress backup journal has already gotten a half dozen spam-hits (all removed by akismet before publishing.) just random gibberish, no links or anything.


Christmas reminder.. Santa’s Pals, not so sinister elf-replaced Black Pete and the sinister Krampus. (More Krampus here ! – Found while Searching for James Ensor… Belgium’s Famous Painter. )

back to work….feeling better enough to get to where I need to go. Got my Secret Santa Assignment. Not picking it up tonight, but soon. Today started slow going, but hourly stretches are helping a lot. Not so bad, once I showered and headed out the door. No drugs stronger than ibuprofen until I got home… have to stay sharp while on the job.


via bckev and lore at the same time! 50 answers from stereotypist : stick man doodles, and the lamp.

If you look at the “things in jars” link in Kevin’s post, you might be sorry. I’m not. Lore also put me on to The Superest

The Superest is a continually running game of My Team, Your Team. The rules are simple:

Player 1 draws a character with a power. Player 2 then draws a character whose power cancels the power of that previous character. Repeat.

best read from the very beginning.


via bandicoot – As part of the new LJ “tagging” program, everyone has had their ability to see LJ content filtered. The default setting is “Moderately filtered”.

To change that back to “Unfiltered”, open up http://www.livejournal.com/manage/settings/, and go to the bottom, where you can change the filter settings.


Dinner tonight of veggie burgers and corn tortilla/tomato soup. good chilly weather fare!

Looks like permanent accounts will still be good, at least for the moment. Still, LJ-archive is handy, in case a person wants to jump ship with comments and links intact… or Blog2Blog, if they don’t mind losing comments while sliding from point to point.


Speaking of Easter Decorations at Christmastime (well, I was, yesterday) Looks like Melting Bunny is making the rounds. Waste of a perfectly good trio of chocolate bunnies, if you ask me, dear journal.
