The wifing unit now has an Ipod Touch - we traded some of our technology to a friend of ours who needed other gadgets and did not need this Ipod Touch she got for free. It's nice.

Work is busy. Or should be.

I made burritos al pastor for dinner last night. A+ would do again.

I'm tempted to use "ongoingly" in a sentence.

Grad school stuff is going okay - most applications were due and were sent in an everything for 1/15. There are a couple with a Feb end date and one with a 1/21, those need a little bit more work before they're done, but they're all okay. Actually, not sure about two of the recommendations, I've had a little trouble with emailings from one of the people, will try to get resolved.

Coma coma coma coma coma chameleon!

We watched Fringe last night. John Noble remains an awesome actor, the plot seems to be moving in a decent direction, but the whole "Olivia is going to die" thing is a bit silly - just like the whole "The fate of the universe depends on which Olivia Peter likes" thing which went nowhere in the end. Seriously, they need to come up with a six-episode mini-arc that wraps everything up. No more complications in an attempt to spin the story out another year. It's wearing thin.

There was somebody that always made a handy little calendar that indicated all the company days off and all the paydays. I just print it off and put it on the wall so I can quickly glance at it. Very handy, esp. as the days payroll runs are significant to my work. Don't have a 2012 yet. I'm trying to find a little online app somewhere that makes it easy to create one. I don't want to have to fiddle with anything (or, at least, not much). The MS Office templates are all wrong, too. Dammit. I'm going to have to do this myself. EDIT: I was going to make some remarks about the gold standard, flat taxes, perpetual motion machiens, and other silly things being essentially alike. Well, I lost it. There it goes.
