Done yesterday (20110831 We)

( raw notes )

Hmm. I finished packing my cube, went to a going-away lunch, and posted my last weekly status report. Mostly, that was a pointer to my "When I Go" page, which I will link to here after it gets a bit more editing. (The title was, of course, chosen purely as an excuse to embed the obvious video.)

I also got the dhcp server running on my upgraded router; I think that leaves only DNS to configure before I can switch over and get rid of the power-hogging, ancient 3.5" hard drive.

The Pegasus Awards Ballot for this year is out in the wild. I'm not on it, so in view of my ravaged travel budget I think I'll skip OVFF this year.

A couple of food blogs in the links: Veganomics 101 | Nifty, Thrifty, and Vegan (run by the girlfriend of a friend of a friend), and Gluten-Free Girl and the Chef, which I found via a link to warm brown rice and grilled vegetables salad, which despite the title is mostly about the perils of blogging-while-female. Which is despicable.

Over on twitter, I observed that "@ssavitzky: Now that I think of it, G+ does sound like the grade below F-, doesn't it?"

Thankful Thursday

I think I missed last week. Um... yes. And the one before that, too. Of course, two weeks ago I was at Worldcon, with lousy connectivity, and last week I was kind of recovering from Worldcon. But I can't really make excuses, and I won't. I just didn't do it. Anyway...

Today I'm thankful for...

• Opportunities to learn.
• Terrific coworkers both at the place I'm leaving, and at the place I'm going back to.
• The opportunity to work on a fantastic product.
• Not having to worry about the release schedule any more.
• Moving boxes that don't require tape.
• Exercises that fix my shoulder pain. My PT, Christina.
• A home state where all public spaces in hotels are smoke-free.
• Being older and wiser.
• My health.
