I feel like the universe may want me to watch The Vampire Diaries. I am unsure whether to comply.

As @kunaal84 would say, everything always works out for the best. Today is going better than expected. Hangin’ in there…
More office fun with novelty specs… http://twitpic.com/2mn3pt
And just to top it all off, I forgot my keys. In the rain. With a nasty cold. Here’s hoping the Snook’s bus is quick. 🙁
I’m cold. Guess that’ll learn me.
For those playing with Game Center, feel free to add me! I’m on there under my Gmail address…
Ooh, Game Center does nicknames too. I’m webgoddess.
@squozen They’re all paid games! And none of the ones that I’ve already got. 🙁

Wacom Bamboo Touch
Wacom Bamboo Touch
For most of the winter, I’ve been having some fairly serious pain in my right wrist and elbow. It went away when we went on vacation but came back soon afterwards. It’s obviously connected to the heavy mouse usage of my right hand, combined with the pressure of my chair arm on a nerve near my elbow. I tried switching my mouse to the left hand, but I was utterly useless at it. I had resorted to trying to memorize keyboard shortcuts and daily applications of Voltarin to my wrist. Then two weeks ago my co-worker Graeme saw me and asked if I wanted to try out his Bamboo Touch. (He didn’t need it any more.) I was skeptical at first, but I am now a total convert. For all normal mouse-related activities, I’m just as quick now with the tablet as I was before. I utterly LOVE two-finger scrolling, which I also have on my MacBook at home. My wrist pain has disappeared completely. For my elbow, I ended up wrapping a scarf around the chair arm to create a makeshift pad. That’s helping quite a bit, so I think a more permanent solution is in order. Just thought I’d share my experience in case any of you are experience similar mouse-related repetitive use injuries! -

RUNNERS, HELP! In my taper, 11 days to HM… and I’ve got a cold coming on. What’s the best course of action?
Stupid frustrating week. Stress, work, upcoming race, Guild, mortgage refinancing… Keep getting overwhelmed. This cold isn’t helping. 🙁
Nightcap: paracetamol with a decongestant chaser. ACHOOOO!
@kunaal84 Oh man. You okay? Everything sorted? Sorry I bailed. Felt guilty even though I was useless to you!
@liedra I lived in the UK for two years and had prepay the whole time. They wouldn’t give me a plan either.
Most important work day in months and I am a snot monster. #fml
@Opheli8 Are you on the same bus??
Somehow a 45 minute head start has resulted in only a 15 minute gain. Thank you, crappy 461 driver.

Fit to Run – at 50, 60, and 70
“Fit to Run – at 50, 60, and 70.” Nice little article from today’s Sydney Morning Herald about Can Too and the many older runners they’re training.

@DDsD @mpesce @steven_noble Lansdowne is good for cheap eats, but I prefer hanging out with old local dudes to students!
