Things I haven't mentioned (at least, i don't think i did)
Last Thursday was Take Your Kids to Work day, which my company observes. I had a discussion with the two kids who were still in the office after lunch about Gantt Charts and project planning. MUCH good natured ribbing from my colleagues, but i remember fondly my Dad trying to explain Gantt charts to me. That was a gift i thought i could pass on.
Christine's done some domain name activism. Sick of snarky "Obamacare" comments? Connect folks to http://obama-cares.com to get answers to questions about health care reform.
I remain impressed by just how much ... guilt? self-recrimination? ... i can package up for myself. I'm doing something i should have done but screwed up an important detail in doing, that let a staff member down. In a compensation sort of way. I have procrastinated on fixing it. I just tried to initiate the fix. [Time passes] And it went through without a hitch, a phone call, a don't do that. Why are those things so scary (and didn't happen), but the knowledge that someone was counting on me wasn't enough to motivate?
Health: It's been a long while since i've felt the side of my face burning. This is very mild, around my left cheek bone, more forward. I did have a nasty headache this morning, for which i took two aleve.
Like dot com -- i'm not going to give something particularly trackable there -- is in the offices opposite mine. The youngthings dressed beyond dressed who i bump into in the shared ladies room are so surreal compared to our 40plus comfortable shoes crowd.
