    Lately I've been noticing that about 35% of the posts I make end up getting saved as a draft, after I post them... The other day while writing a post, I paused and left to go check an email moments after seeing the "draft saved at " box pop up at the bottom... When I came back, my draft was replaced by an autosaved draft of my previous post... I couldn't get it back, but when I went to my saved drafts, the post I was still writing was there... So I deleted the draft that was actually already a post, and the draft it was blocking became available...   I love it... At least it keeps me from getting bored.

    who would have thought caching would solve the time travel problem ? wink

    Writing documentation is dull at the best of times, but it's gray and overcast and I just want to lie down and sleep. sad  So, I'm thinking about my end-of-project party and where I'm going to go.  It'll be my last blowout before I enter austerity mode. devil After this weekend, it's back to sending out resume's all over Austin.. don't really want to relocate. indecision

    A Venti quad-shot latte' and still sleepy.. wth..

     

    sucks about contract work >.< you do a good job, you work yourself out of a job. 

     

    This one was a real roll of the dice - small startup, private investors, niche market.. but the product concept is sound and it was worth taking a risk, since I'm single.  It just didn't work out, the investors chickened out, and we're all out of work for the holiday season.

    I really feel sorry for the folks with families and bills, they're going to take a real hard hit... indecision

     

    it's that time of year for me too.  i'm a yearly contract employee.  every january worries if they'll renew me, i'm always the last to know.  

    bought my lotto tickets, it's the backup plan.

    I better go brush my little teeth while waiting for poser to download.   Maybe I should brush all my teeth while at it.

     

    my dentist says, only floss the teeth you wanna keep

    I better find my floss so I can floss all the teeth I want to keep but I am not going to floss my fishies' teeth if they have any.

    I've been told by people who keep pet sharks that it's a bitch flossing all those teeth! surprise  Not so much the number of teeth, but it is hard on the floss.

     

    Seems about right...  cheeky

    hehe love that toothy one :)

    I got a free coffee with star reward and also purchased a cookie.

    How was that cookie?

    It looked like one of those cookies that one accidentally purchases because they are really trying to buy a different cookie but the person behind the counter is directionally challenged... 

    Customer: I'd also like one of the cookies in the case... This one (pointing directly to it behind the glass)...

    Clerk: (now standing on a stool ten feet away) Uh... This one?

    Customer: No, sorry this chocolate one over here...

    Clerk: This eclair?

    Customer: No, I said over here, not eclair...

    Clerk: The eclairs are over here...

    Customers: No, I'd like a cookie... From this case...

    Clerk: Okay, good, because we are out of eclairs... Which cookie?

    Customer: (pointing directly to lone chocolate cookie in try in middle of case) This one...

    Clerk: The red one? (Reaching for blue cookie on bottom shelf, far right)

    Customer: No, this chocolate one, right here...

    Clerk: This is blueberry frosted, not chocolate...

    Customer: No, one shelf above, to your left...

    Clerk: This gingerbread elf?

    Customer: No, to the left...

    Clerk: There are two left, but if you wait they are making some more...

    Customer: I want this cookie here...

    Clerk: This green one too? (pointing to a red cookie shaped like Santa Squid or something)...

    Customer: No, the chocolate one...

    Clerk: Yes, it's our Cthulhu cookie, it's very popular...

    Customer: No, choco... did you say Cthulhu?

    Clerk: You'd like a chocolate cookie too? (Homes right in on the correct cookie, takes it out and drops it on the floor)... Oh my... That was the last one... Ever... Sorry...

    Customer: (Eyes bugging out)... Gasp....

    Clerk: So... One gingerbread elf and one Keg O' Latte... Anything else?

    Customer: No! For the love of God, no! Just give me the $&#€!!?% cookie and my $&?#^€£¥?!$ coffee, and let me leave!

    Clerk: Okay, thanks... That's $47.95... Is that a debit card?

     

    The cookie seemed like it didn't have a face, so I assumed you went through one of those scenarios... You always will end up with some horrible stale mutated baked good of some sort when that happens... That or you get arrested for assault... Possibly both if you hold onto the cookie and the cops give up trying to take it away.

    Anyway, I hope it was good. 

     

     

    ...I've had experiences like that.

    Walked into one of those chain operated corner coffee shops once.

    Me "I'd like a Medium Coffee"

    Barista: "Will that be a [insert a series of three different pseudo terms that are a fusion of French Italian and Swahili which were concocted by some overpaid flunkie in the company's marketing department]?"

    Me: "a Medium"

    Barista: "so you want either a [repeats the same three nonsensical words again]."

    Me: "Medium you know like in 'Small,  Medium, Large...' a M-e-d-i-u-m" [I accompany each word using my hands to indicate the difference].

    Barista: "Oh you want a [second nonsensical 'make-believe' size name].

    Me: "yes, a Medium".[nodding to emphasize what I said].

    Barista [goes gets coffee, returns to cash register] OK one [French-Italian-Swahili named size] house coffee, will that be all?  [I nod "yes"]. That will be 2.50$ please."

    Glad all I ordered was the coffee and nothing else.

    Feel sometimes like a need an "English to Cafe" dictionary.

    Well, I can't say I've had that involved of a conversation because I usually avoid places that sell overpriced bitter coffee sludge to people who've been brainwashed into thinking that it's what they should drink and that it's worth the money.  My problem with coffee came when I went to Europe and tried to find a drinkable cup of coffee for breakfast that was not 10% tar and 65% milk.  I desperately tried to explain what a plain unsweetened, unlactosed, simple cup of unbitter black coffee was and I could see the confusion and disbelief cross their face like a haboob across the desert.  Perhaps I'm naive and cafe' illiterate but Folger's Instant was my daily waker-upper for decades. smiley  The problem is moot now because I've had to quit coffee altogether.  crying

    crap, I uninstalled Zbrush my mistake which means that it did not get unregistered and I am at my limit of how many "machines" are registered.  That means no use of Zbrush until that is fixed.
