Something that fascinates me about my job:
People here do work, and they do get things done, but hardly anyone stays for over 8 hours. That’s 8 hours including lunch. I’m not fixating on everyone else’s time at work – don’t get … Read more
This morning, the pledge drive started on KQED, one of the local public radio stations.
Stephen pointed out that Matt Elmore sounds just like Doc Hattori from Iron Chef. It was creepy!
So, it’s come to this.
I have to accept it. I bear more than just a passing resemblance to HER. There’s not much I can do about it without major plastic surgery, and that’s just not worth it. I guess it … Read more

Don’t you want to ride in my survival car?
Listening to Fountains of Wayne today, in a very post-Soprano orgy mood. We finished season three this weekend. That means we’ve watched 39 hours of The Sopranos in the past month. That’s a lot of … Read more
Those antibiotics are taking a toll on my system.
Rough tummy, and general ickyness. If it doesn’t improve by Wednesday, I’m going to call the derm and see about going back on the hormone therapy. If I’m going to be miserable anyway… Actually, there’s … Read more
