geekchick: (hee!)
Google Book Search now indexing and reproducing scratch and sniff books.



(Google-related April Fool's jokes; I rather like the Google Docs paper airplane.)

Things accomplished today:

  • Got rickrolled by LJ, right off the bat. Oh, the embarrassment. Apparently that was the prank du jour for a lot of sites; none of them were anywhere NEAR as funny as the rickroll via singing telegram though.
  • Didn't kill anyone all day. (Two more hours to go though as I type this, so maybe I shouldn't speak too soon.)
  • Got a fair amount of tedious but necessary work done. Allergies have kicked in, so I'm both tired and stupid all day long and "tedious, but necessary" is about the right speed.
  • Dicovered I'm boned on the RAID setup; Intel tells me that the only way I'll be able to get it working is to wipe my primary drive and set up a new volume. Yeah, no.
  • Actually left the office for 90 minutes or so mid-afternoon to go get some coffee and enjoy the fact that it was 80 freakin' degrees and sunny.
  • Picked up the new Dresden Files book, although I am trying to convince myself to finish "King Solomon's Ring" first.
  • Ran across one of the Pinecone Research banners and signed up; a couple extra bucks here and there wouldn't be a bad thing.
  • No carry-out meals consumed at all today. Actually cooked a real meal (as opposed to take-out or just having a bowl of Kraft Mac & Cheese or the like) for the first time in a while: black beans and rice with sausage, topped with chicken breast solidly coated in a mixture of a bit of flour, a whole lot of Penzeys' Cajun seasoning, not quite as much Penzeys' red and black pepper blend, chipotle seasoning, and a little paprika and then pan-fried. Om nom nom nom.


I think the rest of the night will be devoted to taking some Claritin, watching a bit of tv via Hulu, and then crawling into bed by midnight since thanks to allergy season kicking into high gear, I appear to be needing at least seven solid hours of sleep in order to even drag my butt out of bed.
