January 2014 No Last Call “Jan’s on her way to you now; she’ll explain all of it. Can you get back to that diner?” (Avengers/MCU, 2916) April 2014 The biggest room in the world Did ‘unavailable’ have some type of secondary meaning of which he was unaware? (Sleepy Hollow, 9655) May 2014 Blink, Bleed, Breathe, […]
Here it is, the last Monday of the year, and one final animal to go with it! The Dik-dik is a tiny antelope — they can run up to 26 mph and also whistle! (Though possibly not at the same time.) [photo credit Pedro Gonnet, via wikipedia]
So, apparently it’s Sunday. I am not entirely sure how this happened. I’m sure we were supposed to be having a four-day weekend, and somehow it feels like it has been only about 12 hours or so. And yet — Sunday! Which means I am now at that tricky point of trying to figure out […]

Left work at 8:30 last night, supposed to be here at 8 am this morning. Totally miscalculated how much time it would take to get here at 7 am versus 11 am; arrived embarrassingly early at 7:30 am. Plus side: plenty of parking available!
Everyone keeps optimistically saying things should quiet down this week. So far no such luck. People keep leaving for vacation, which means that although the total work load is less, it’s distributed over fewer and fewer people. (On the plus side, the free food that keep showing up is also distributed among fewer and fewer […]
