I think their data meters are unreliable.

Le Nubian, K-Bug got a similar notice this month but when we looked it up, she was only at 65% with 3 days left on our billing period. First time we had gotten a notice like that.

I was full of work motivation this morning and kicked butt for a while, but I have hit the wall. Guess I'll take a break and see if I can rediscover that go get'em attitude.

information libertarian

My sister (half-sister, she's 25, not Nutty Vee!) just emailed me and a bunch of other family members to announce she and her (live-in) BF got engaged. For some reason the fact that the email reads CC: His Name is cracking me up like crazy.

I've never met the actual guy (though the fact that he is 41 gives me a little pause), but he moved to Seattle to be with her. The ring is nice!

There are long-handled dryer vent brushes. Usually if you clean the lint trap every load, not a lot of lint gets into the vent. (Right now, I need to clean out the outside vent on my dryer, because lint gets in the wire cover designed to keep the rats out. It's a three-minute job, if I would just walk out the door with a phillips screwdriver.)

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Vortex, thank you.

When I was in college, I wore black leggings, black turtlenecks, and then an oversized men's blazer over the top. Which I guess is like wearing leggings as pants. I guess I wouldn't wear them without something covering my butt and crotch areas. But they used to be thicker than tights.

Hey, that was me in my senior year of high school! With additional black lace shawls tied around my hips.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Liese, thanks for sharing that MIT link!

You're welcome! I hope she does it!

MIT has a lot of classes on-line. You don't get credits for them, but the geek in me is all "Who the fuck CARES!! WOO!"

Yeah, but this is different. It's the pilot for their new MITx program. It's a regular class, with interaction with the teacher and the other students, online labs, all kinds of stuff. When it goes full, you'll need to go into a test center and everything to get the certificate (still not the same as the degree stuff, but much closer) and prove your id and all. For this one you don't have to. Starts March 5th.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Y'all, my parents gave me a Sodastream Penguin for my birthday. I just now unpacked it and tried it out and it is even cooler than I though. Yay!
