I found an ethically produced, biodegradable bra!! But it only comes in a limited size range and I’m pretty sure my broad back and big boobs will size me out

Kitchen sink is still not fixed. I had to rinse dishes in the bathroom sink last night but am not generating new dishes.
But I just took a shower and as I got out I heard the death gurgle of water rising in the kitchen. The water in the sinks looked and smelled like coffee and sewage. While I produce sewage, I don’t drink coffee and haven’t had a guest drink coffee in months. This raises questions about the ownership of the sewage. The ownership of the sewage two nights ago…and the risk that the fact that my sinks have been dirty whenever I looked for the past month may not have been purely a reflection of my housekeeping skills.
And if the problem is increasing… What if it increases to overflow levels .
Should I call a plumber Friday? I will anyway

We had a conflict anyway and it’s out of state so easy decision not to go.

I have misplaced my cloth pads. It’s time to accept this and buy more instead of whinging and using disposables.

I can’t today. Just… nope.
Not over anything that serious. Just, the question “Why is it such a big deal to download the data set to csv and re-work the entire visual each time? There’s no need to be able to connect live to the data!”
Wharrgarble.

I got to work an hour early due to a big meeting and trying to make up hours so now I am starving, but it is too early to break into my lunch.

I used software at work that had instant visualization. The data was behind the scenes in Excel. I tested it, but my group didn’t have data tendencies other than rudimentary stuff. I tried to convince them to use this to basically have automated up-to-the-minute reports to the big cheeses, but they weren’t interested. Sadly, I can’t remember the name of the software now. But it was so cool.

That sounds really awesome! We have a tool that should be able to do it, but our policies have sort of hamstrung its capabilities. I mean, if I would quit moping about it, I could write my own stuff from scratch. But that will take months, and I don’t wanna.

I never got good at using this tool - so I never learned it’s limitations (learned my limitations though). Unfortunately my ex-employer were always so cheap they rarely sprung for these sorts of things. The research group had access, I argued and temporarily got access. Since it wasn’t part of my “job”, my playing around with it was limited, but very enticing.

I mean, you did say that you live in Always on Fire over in the Tiny Victories thread.
All joking aside, that sucks majorly bad and I hope there are less fires in your future.

I had my lunch a smidge early and was planning on making up for the ravenous beast inside by getting free frozen yogurt on my way home due to the magic that is National Froyo Day, but apparently we are under a tornado watch and the weather is scary out. Not sure if my desire for froyo is enough to justify possible wind damage.

I thought the person who thinks my college email address is hers had stopped, but apparently she just took a break from signing up for things using that email address.

What is the vanity made of (the stained part)? Was he dying his hair??

Um. Something? I have no clue. High quality laminate, maybe? Possibly stone?
Ewok has ‘colour baths’ (baths with food colouring in) for funsies. I’ve warned Mr H a million times that a food colouring bottle with a little food colour on the outside will stain whatever it’s set down on, so please clean the bottle before setting it down. Clearly he was not listening.
