Done so far this week (20101219 Su - 23 Th)

( raw notes )

So, um... Right.

I got two walks in; about the same as last week, only farther. And did better on my diet, at least modulo the Indian buffet last night. And took some checks to the bank for deposit, some of which have been sitting on my desk for a month or two. So a moderately productive week.

And I went to Kohl's and found underwear and dress pants on sale for about half price. I got three 4-packs of boxers from different manufacturers, to see which ones I liked, and two pair of Croft & Barrow pants. I got them both off the rack of microfiber pants, but one turned out to be a wool/polyester blend; not too itchy after washing, but I'm still dubious. It's slightly smaller and tighter; I think I'll leave it in the closet until I lose a few pounds, and revisit it then. I hate clothes shopping.

Oh, and I got some long-delayed blood-work done. Everything within normal range except for triglycerides (high), HDL (slightly low), and glucose (one point high). And made a tasty dinner of rockfish and Brussels sprouts on Sunday.

On the down side, I totally spaced (as it were) the lunar eclipse, and simply went to bed. It was cold, and I was sleepy -- too sleepy, obviously, to remember the reminder that I'd looked at not an hour before. I've seen lunar eclipses before, though; I'm not terribly upset about it.

Work felt rather unproductive, since I didn't write very much code, but I actually got some important holes filled in and did a lot of mentoring. I can't believe I'm the only person in the company who groks GNU make. I mean, I can understand people not knowing git: it's new. Make's been around for ages. Maybe other people don't read man and info pages for fun? Could be.

Some good links up there under the cut, as you'd expect after going so long without posting.
