Godspeed, Discovery. That was a pretty launch.

At the office. Missed the torrential NYC midday monsoon by a couple of minutes. Good thing the disappearing rainforest is coming here.
I am getting rained on through the open door of a Q train. Nice.
heading for Beth Emeth with umbrella, laptop, suit/shoes and kid 2
Wow. Tiny sliver of broken ceramic under my desk just sliced my big toe something fierce.
Shabbat dinner al fresco in the backyard was lovely. Must get kidlets to bed, though, the hour grows ludicrous.
Heading home. Tomorrow afternoon’s forecast: more gigantic piles of cruft.
2002: “Zip drives for everyone!” 2008: “WTF are these and when do we throw them out?” :-(
Q: Can gaffer’s tape actually shred the sheath of Cat-5 cable? A: Yes, apparently it can.

Interesting Word 2008 hiccup: embedded PPT slides don’t display without quitting/relaunching Word. User growing cranky.

Heading home. Amazing how hectic things get in the two hours after the help desk “closes.” :)
Very appreciative of @heidihoover turning her morning upside-down to pick up pink-eye girl at preschool.
Heading back to the office. Got my antivirus mojo workin’.

Cute product but I can’t stop giggling at the company name http://tinyurl.com/5us5tn
Farewell lunch for Lisa S. So very full of beef. Now trying to avoid being rained on.
I like how TinyURL makes server error messages part of the solution. http://skitch.com/t/dij
Sluggish start. Should have gone to bed earlier last night. Raining in L:11220.
Judging by the top shelf of my library, I am a 16-year-old New England girl with emo/folk leanings http://skitch.com/t/dw1

First Wiinjury — 7-year-old clipped Mommy while reaching for an outside curveball. No harm, no foul.

Same as @film_girl: writing, writing, writing. Also taxes and sweeping the yard.
