(*Not that I’m implying anyone would take their valuable work time to animate a yeti. Unless they wanted to. On Halloween. Which is today.) Made With Code – Yeti Show! Super simple and fun! (FYI there’s sound once you hit ‘Play.’)

One of my coworkers claims to be unable to hear anything else when her earbuds are in. People talking next to her, people loudly calling her name, loud noises — nothing. 1. I find this hard to believe, to some extent, because I use also earbuds at work, and I can consistently overhear conversations going […]

I just “created” my novel over at the nanowrimo site. That’s two words sorted, right? It has a title! (Subject to change.) It has a genre! (Because isn’t everything kind of an adventure, from a certain point of view?) It has no synopsis. (Heck, if I knew what it was about, that would be a […]

My new work schedule means that my partner in crime coworker and I are the last people to leave the building in the evening, so we shut off the lights and set the alarm. This has been going well for the last couple weeks. Last night we ran into a slight problem. The alarm keypad […]

Let me preface this by saying I think it’s pretty amazing that LL Bean shipped anything at all on a Saturday. So, thanks! It still made me laugh when I checked the tracking update. Start location? Freeport, Maine. Current location? Chelmsford, Massachusetts. Eventual destination? New Hampshire. You have to drive through New Hampshire to get […]

I received an awesome comment from Amarin_Rose earlier this week on one of my fics, and it mentioned that perhaps there could be a list of what order they go in, since some of them are connected. (At first I thought chronological would cover it, but then I realized I’d posted some of them in […]

Another day to be grateful for laundry. It’s already got that feel like not a whole lot of much is going to get done today. I’ve been sneezing all morning (which is weird, I’m usually more a sniffler than a sneezer), and it’s gray and rainy outside — I’ve been concocting excuses already to get […]

TEAM BUILDING IS ONCE AGAIN UPON US! Yes, that’s right. After a reprieve in the third quarter, there’s been a push to hold a team building event in October. There was much debate.
