Speaking of heat, we had a Mexican-themed lunch day at the office today. I brought some of my hotter chili sauce I got from California and convinced some people to have it (no complaints from those brave enough to try it).

Anyway, I also had some chocolate coconut roughs, and one of my colleagues dared me to eat some with the sauce poured on. I accepted and performed the act without hesitation, and enjoyed it. Some were revolted, others joined me and agreed how delicious it was.

Ah, winter warmers.

Chocolate and chilli can indeed be a great combination. The Aztecs were on to something.

Bought a lighter today. I don't even smoke, but that metal case Bic is just too cool not to have: Zippo-style case that houses a replaceable Bic mini.

And I got asked for my ID. I guess I should be grateful for being so well preserved that I still get asked for ID now when I'm closer to 30 than 25, but this getting ridiculous. Oh well, that day will likely come when I'm hoping someone would ask for my ID.

Happy birthday to Fragility!!

Happy birthday from a million miles away!

happy birthday!!!

Happy birthday!

Also, my wife likes Epicloud. She's been listening to it all week. That's a big improvement over not liking the concert I took her to with Gojira and Devin playing. We're making progress!

I've spent almost 100 hours playing Skyrim. Time well spent, and I'm probably gonna add at least 50 hours to that figure .

I'm gonna try and get up early tomorrow and have a proper breakfast. The last week or so has been pretty much coffee and granola bars. But I recently bought English muffins, peanut butter and jam, and intend to eat them. Perhaps with tea.

Another tech rant coming up...
Seems Gmail brought in the new compose without offering the "temporarily switch to old compose" anymore. New compose, what a huge steaming pile of shit.

The small compose sitting in the lower-right corner is too small, and trying to bring up the so called "full screen" compose (actually just a large light box style thingie), just doesn't work on my Firefox. It just shows the title bar. And in addition to that, I can't go back to the small version anymore, AND that also causes the left side navigation buttons to stop functioning until I close and reload Gmail. I had to log in with IE to have to work properly and switch to the small compose again. Real smooth, Google!
And they, among others, claim the possibility of doing several things at once as an advantage with the new compose. Sure, you can't open stuff in Gmail into new tabs/windows, but how about just opening those new tabs yourself and going to Gmail? Bam, two instances of Gmail open at once!

Anything looking like / working like lightboxes is cancer of the internet.

Without commerce, we would not come to realize the intrinsic value of human nature as profound insignificance.

Mmmmmmm-yello.


Also, happy birthday Clare.
