sense :: taste // cold cut sammich
You know, I’m never getting rid of a computer without either removing the hard drive for formatting it a couple of dozen times over and writing random data to the hard drive. I’m not saying I have horribly incriminating material on any of my computers, but the last thing [...]
sense :: taste // orange juice
The two of us took the day off yesertday, partially so I could nurse a sore throat and to get some extra sleep; making this the first in a nice pair of short werk weeks, including next week. No idea what we’re doing for the memorial day weekend, but I [...]
sense :: sight // Lab Rats
The weekend was nice enough; somewhat quiet and relaxing, and involved a little painting and a lot of cooking, both of which I was grateful for the time to be away from the office for. It’s odd, I really do feel more alive when I don’t have the prospect of [...]
sense :: taste // lemon sesame asparagus
I’ve been desperate for enough time to update lately; werk has been pretty hectic and busy these past couple of days, meaning I barely have enough time to get my actual duties accomplished before the rolling ball of more werk falls on my head. I especially hate days [...]
sense :: hearing // Morcheeba – Ten Men
For anyone who might be curious what it’s like to werk in the DC area, you need only listen to this segment from one of our NPR programs, Metro Connection titled Take This Job and…zzzzzzzz. It’s absolutely brilliant, and well, says it all. It was of particular interest [...]
sense :: hearing // Adham Shaikh – Orcadrift (Turtledub Remix)
You know, David Blane has gotten a little flak in a couple of different places that I’ve read about his “Drowned Alive” stunt, where he essentially dunked himself in body temperature water and is staying submerged in it for something like 8 days. The comments that [...]
sense :: hearing // Zero7 – Passing By
I keep forgetting to take lunch while I’m in the office. I usually get wrapped up blogging in one place or another, or just reading the news, or something, that even though I have iCal set to remind me at 12:45pm that I should take lunch at 1pm, [...]
sense :: sight // spinning fan blades
I’m being incredibly prolific today. Probably in no small part to the fact that I’m trying to get away from the humdrum of the werkday. Well, the humdrum and the annoyance, but those aren’t necessarily two different things. The annoyances tend to be rather humdrum, so that’s just that.
So [...]
sense :: hearing // chattering officemates
So the weekend was amazingly productive and yet similarly relaxing-Friday involved a few drinks to take the edge off of a stressful week (and this week doesn’t look to be horrifically less stressful) and Saturday brought Tim and Brooke and Mike to our pad for a few episodes of Top [...]
sense :: smell // lilacs
Among some of the amusement I’ve found today was an article on the five most common lies in business, which I sincerely think I’ve heard all of at least once. Seriously, I really hope to never been that businessperson where lying like that to people is commonplace or accepted. That’s just [...]
sense :: taste // fresh pressed coffee
Took the day off yesterday, which was a much needed mental recharge. Got up, made some coffee, took Raevyn to the train station in the morning, came back, watched reruns of MacGyver and 7 Days, then headed back to bed. Slept in, relaxed a bit, and played some WoW, [...]
sense :: sight // sunlight filtered through the leaves
Oddly enough, I really do need to sharpen our knives. Some of them are getting pretty dull; although some of the newer ones we bought are still sweet and sharp.
So I’ve all but given up the DC Metblog for the DCist, which I think is far [...]
