A variety of mostly useless tidbits
Deke Dickerson on the Rachel Maddow show. It's a really great spot! Man, I wish he came through here more often...and came to Lawrence at all.
I just bought this pattern for my birthday present to myself. When
elaine4queen posted about it earlier this month, the pattern was sold out, but I got news this morning that they're back in stock. *snag*
stuology mentioned that there are some problems with Flickr deleting accounts (and, thus, photos) without notification or explanation. I'm going to make sure all my stuff I've got there is backed up and then do some research into alternative photo-hosting sites.
Last night's dinner was one of the best soups I've ever created. I hope to be able to remember the ingredients and will be typing that up (as best I can) later this morning.
It looks like I'm not going to be able to take vacation during Spring Break this year since the grad student recruitment visit is the Monday through Wednesday right after break. I need to make a spreadsheet that calculates my accrued vacation through the end of June so I can budget for it. I don't want to wind up in a use-it-or-lose-it bind like I did last year. I so much appreciate that I can save up my vacation time over 80 hours/two weeks, but my particular job responsibilities cause my schedule to clash with when it's most convenient to take time off. I'm including this information mostly so I'll remember to make that damn spreadsheet. Soon.
ARGH! I just realized that, during errands last night, I forgot to pick up my (mostly useless) thyroid meds. *sigh* Guess I gotta go out again tonight. Drat and blast.
Update: I love love love this post so much. So! Much! I love it enough that it just convinced me to purchase her cookbook (even though I swore I wasn't going to purchase any more printed cookbooks) because this woman deserves my money.
