She was nice about it of course, she’s a wonderful person who is always a delight to work with. But I know it’s an inconvenience for her to deal with the fallout from my numerical incompetencies.

So embarrassing that I had to go to my GirlScoutCookie supplier and admit I miscounted and had to order more. I felt like such a twit — I even had a list and everything and yet I’m two ‘baskets’ short. :(

In related news, it’s funny to hear Apple talking about how they don’t think data loss is a risk worth worrying about while their cloud services suffer data loss.

The string quartet version of Hyperballad is lovely.

It says a lot about our society that people have such a hard time believing that you might give them a gift for absolutely no ‘reason’ at all. They ask so many questions and keep probing for the reason, as though simple kindness is not enough.

didn’t start that way. My first barefoot run only went half a block before having to put on shoes. Slowly, day after day getting slightly better.

dunno, really, as I don’t track the runs or have a predetermined route. The jog home from work is an exception, and what I did yesterday. That’s about 4.5mi (depending on precisely where on campus I start and how many blocks of ‘cool down’ I want before getting home). Most days I just start running around and stay out till I feel like going home. About 30-45min I think? But I’m super slow so probably still in the 3 to 5 mile range.

yes.

Between sick and scheduling it has been a few weeks since I jogged. Finally got back out again yesterday. Was nice, but a shame I had to wear shoes. The rains leave much debris on the ground which makes it harder to spot the hazardous stuff, so barefoot isn’t wise this time of year.

it’s the phone, smaller screen than the laptop.
