Body Scrollbar
So considering what I do for my job, I thought I might be useful and start sharing useful things I find along the way. It's almost a weekly occurrance that I come across something that makes me go "Why haven't I been doing this for the last 6 months?"
I'll put this behind a fold, for those who really couldn't care less.
Immigrant Song
Fun and simple song to play, but it gives you a damn good leg workout. Good for working on fast single kicks.

Bear Turing
So I am not sure how many of you are familiar with what a Turing Test is, but basically it is a test proposed to see whether or not a computer system can successfully imitate a human. I'll spare you the boring details, but if you're interested you can read about it here.
Anyways, there is a program I use at work, and on one screen it gives a list of names of our clients. It will shorten the longer names... and I noticed that what it displayed for one client is "Bear ...turing" (I won't tell you the full name for the sake of <spooky>confidentiality</spooky>)
The whole point of this is, I now can't stop thinking about replacing the computer in a Turing test and replacing it with a bear at a keyboard.
Also I removed my eyebrow piercing today, which made me a little sad. It's tough for me to actually admit "defeat" in that kind of situation. However, I strongly suspected it was beginning to migrate away from my face, so I decided I'd pick my battles, and hope to try again later. At least this way it will minimize the scarring.

Monday again!
So I must have like... reverse SAD or something, because while today was incredibly cold (-22 C) and all around rather miserable, I was in one of thest best moods I've been in for a while. I felt very refreshed. Also, I got to send a revised "Job description" to one of my coworkers, and I managed to slip in a few silly things which I heard her chuckling about.
-Data Entry (Skills required: Typing, basic reading comprehension, sight, functioning medulla oblongata. )
Had a good weekend with Shauna, and I won't be seeing her again until Christmas. This gives me plenty of time to make her the diamond unicorn she has been insisting I promised to get her...
Christmas theme!
Getting into the spirit, I've made a little Christmas theme for my blog!
Edit; Okay it's more of a general "Winter" theme. So sue me.

So, cars are expensive! Just yesterday I was driving home, and noticed that the heat gauge was going up. Most definitely abnormal. I wasn't anywhere I could really stop until I got home, but I made it without incident. Checked fluids and stuff, coolant was low. Filled it up with water, and found a leak. Bla bla bla, cost 280$ to fix. Also, I have to replace my front struts, which is probably going to be at least 400$.
Rock Band will have to wait.
