The Onion's 2004 Election Guide

Don't you just love fake news?

Spacey today

You know you are out of it when you go half the day with your shirt on backwards. (It was a turtleneck, so it wasn't all that odd, but sure shows I wasn't paying attention getting dressed.)

National Novel Writing Month

In case you didn't see the article on Blogger's main page, National Novel Writing Month is coming up. Want to participate?

I think I'm coming down with something.

I'm very tired today and can't think straight. It might just be that I haven't been taking proper care of myself now that I'm left to my own devices at night, but I might have caught some bug. We'll have to see how I feel tomorrow. At the moment, I don't think I should be trusted with my code at work. I'd probably just break it.

Tracking the current presidential race

If you are interested in seeing poll data in a pretty map form, check out www.electoral-vote.com and watch the results change from day to day. Of course, some polls can be rather dubious, and the site acknowledges that. Basically, it shows that it is an awfully close race.

Whee! I'm in a battleground state!

Go reference site

I once learned how to play Go when I was in college, but only played a couple of games my freshman year. It would be nice to learn and play.

What time is it where you are?

Now I can keep track of what time it is in South Africa, among other places. Great for tracking figuring out when your loved ones are located.

The Case of the Missing Leftovers

One of the many adjustments I've had to make now that I'm married is accepting that food will vanish from the fridge when I'm not looking. Twice this week, I've gone to the kitchen with the intention of eating some specific leftover food (once it was some curry for supper, this morning it was cold pizza for breakfast) only to find my dear husband had gotten there first. It wasn't like I had laid claim to them, but it is disappointing to have a specific craving and then have to go foraging for something else instead. Obviously, we must make sure we always have two servings leftover in the future. *grin*

Sluggy Freelance election day special

It was created during the last presidential election, but the Sluggy Freelance comic explaining the issues is still funny.
