Musings

  • Girlie Bear began raking leaves today.  So it has come to this……
  • Today, my attitude at the office was probably best described as “coldly professional”.
    • It didn’t start that way.
    • I forced that on myself to keep from getting fired.
  • Note to co-workers:  If I’m sitting in my cubicle with my back to the door, my lunch is still on the desk at 12:30, and I’ve set my instant messenger to “I will hurt your ancestors if you bother me”, poking fun at me for having my headphones on and not answering when you wanted to ask me if I was going to watch the game tonight isn’t welcome.
  • I was listening to Warbound on audiobook today, and it occurred to me just how rich a universe Larry Correia has created.  I was thinking about how I’d like to hear the stories of the Knights of New York, or that a European author ought to write a few books about the European knights and their struggles with the Soviets.
  • Summer is officially over.  Pumpkin ice cream is available again.

    Heh… Yep, coldly professional DOES work, if they’re bright enough to get it. Re lunch- I make it a point to get OUT of the building. I categorically refuse to eat lunch at my desk.

      I try to go down to the lunchroom at least a few days a week. Problem is, I get the best work done when everyone else is away, so when it’s a nightmare day, I work and eat so that I can at least show some progress.
