(no subject)

I should go home. I just accidentally deleted (rm -rf, not "Move to Recycle Bin") a bunch of files that I actually kind of need because I put myself into the wrong directory. Oops. Autopilot error.

By now, everybody's seen that Career Cruising thing, right? Well, it tells me I should be either an archivist or a plumber.

I leave here for a week out of the office in officially 7 hours (although it's more likely to be 8). I've got about 10 hours worth of work to do between now and then. Will that stop me from procrastinating by trying to figure out whether Livejournal's XML-RPC interface is something that will work with the Del.icio.us auto-post recent bookmarks feature? Probably not. (I suspect that's the answer to both questions here.)

Actually, I think I can see how those could be related (not necessarily how they'd apply to you, though). :-)
