Another day at work
Dec. 15th, 2004 09:57 pmScene:
Me walking into the office with a steaming cup of tea, Joe bumping in at the same time.
Joe: "Remember those pages you got this morning about chemistry?"
Me: "Yeah?"
Joe: "Well, I went to check it out. Turns out they started demolition work on the building."
Me: "Oh."
Joe: "Would've been nice of them to tell us."
Me: "Yeah."
So, we spent the next hour going through the chemistry building, which had overnight been transformed from a grad-student-ville into a hard-hat zone full of big burly guys tearing things apart. And pulling out cold metal boxes, without gloves. Brrrr. But at least I got to feel big and burly.
Seriously, though, I really like the weather. If anything, it makes me miss winters in Finland. Everything's crisp and clear and sharp.
Other odds and ends:
Do any of you have experience with freeware content management systems? So far I've looked at Contenido and Typo3, but I'm not horribly happy with either.
Anyone in need of 1) a DVD-ROM drive? (Not writer, just reader) 2) a small digital pocket-sized radio (the kind that doesn't have a speaker but needs headphones.)?
