So the battery in the smoke detector in my 2 year old's bedroom decided to kick the bucket at 12am. So I spent the next hour and a half trying to get her calmed down and convince her that the beeping was taken care of and not caused by some horrible monster that beeps loudly before devouring your soul.
Then my doorbell rang at 6am. By the time I out pants on and got down there, there was nobody there. Current working guess is that the cold temperature and weak battery in the wireless doorbell caused it to malfunction. Either that, or somebody out there needs a punch in the face.

### #### awful movie. I was both astounded and not surprised when I overheard an old Jewish woman exiting the theater saying, "That may be his best movie."Really. A bunch of kitsch aesthetic period references held together by a whiny lead actor you want to punch in the face? Yea. Move over Annie Hall. We have new masterpiece.Or as my esteemed colleague put it -

It's 14 F and somewhat windy outside.
I didn't leave the house and its cozy woodburning stove all day yesterday. Real tempted to skip the gym and do it again today.

Hey, speaking of 2011 movies, what did you all think of Tree of Life? Anyone see it?

I don't see how having a whiny lead actor you want to punch in the face differentiates it from Annie Hall.On a side note, is there anything you don't have an opinion on?'Aaron Rudnicki said:'krista4 said:

All of the above + it's my only form of exercise so I'm committed to biking anytime it's over 25 and not snowing.:smellyhipster:

Co-worker's daughter broker her elbow riding her bike to work in the winter. Her hands were getting cold so she put one under her arm. Car cut in front of her and she tried to stop quick, right over the handlebars onto her elbow. Literally had a floating piece of bone where her elbow should be. Now she's got a monster cast and rods and screws.Let's be careful out there. Or just stay safe and warm in your car.

We have 4(!) smoke detectors upstairs, 1 inside and one just outside of each bedroom. Great fun trying to find which one is beeping every minute from a low battery (or if more than one is beeping).
so nice that car accidents are a thing of the past.

Well ever since they improved the design to have the driver surrounded by a steel cage with windows it's sort of hard to go over the handlebars. Or get cold hands.

There are very good biking gloves that keep your hands warm down at that temp...As Hack says anything over 25 or so is bikeable as long as you're wearing the proper clothes.
maybe bike riders should like, wear gloves and keep their hands on the handlebars and stuff. dunno.riding a bike in this city is dangerous enough in great conditions. no reason to make things worse.also, I don't know anybody who drives to work.

:fistpump:I'd probably want to do the same if I lived in a city. But I know Id' just drive my car past you every morning and duck my head down in shame, probably causing me to swerve when I wasn't looking and take out your elbow.

You've forgotten everyone you used to know in Buffalo? Harsh.
I meant in Chicago. Sorry.
That's not actually true, but it's pretty rare.
Hack's bike ride has to be pretty short, and it's nice that this city is so flat.

I had to look this up.
Dear Old Man in my office who should retire,
Please note that just because it takes you 10 minutes to finish your business at the urinal does NOT mean I want to have generic small talk with you, when I walk in and go into a stall. I am there for quiet, solo work and I really really don't want to respond to things like "Whatcha know? No more than yesterday" or "Well, having fun here in River City". I have never been to River City, I'm not sure what kind of fun they have there, and I really doubt what I am doing at that very moment is anywhere near River City fun. Please just be quiet when I enter. I am starting to just hold it and leave when I see you in there.
Thanks. Yours in Tebow,
Dirkswish

Portland is a very bike-friendly town, which amazes me considering the rain, cold, darkness and hills one has to battle in order to ride a bike to and from work. Makes me feel even more of a giant wuss for running on a treadmill indoors for my exercise.

Just got off the phone with Direct Loans.
CC: "Hi I'm going back to grad school and want to put my loans in whatever it's called when I don't have to pay them."
Sassy Operator: "In school deferment."
CC: "Yes."
SassyO: "Are physically in school now?"
CC: "You mean like as we speak?"
SassyO: "You need to be physically in the classroom before you can get a deferment."
CC: "I'm registered and everything."
SassyO: "I repeat: you need to be physically in the classroom."
CC: "Ok. Do you want a picture of me in the classroom?"
SassyO: "No. That's not necessary."
CC: "Are you sure? I can wear something nice and identifying. Like cheetah print pants and a flamingo pink shirt. With ruffles. And pennies. And a sign saying IT'S ME, RICK and like maybe some glasses so I look like I'm studying. What's your name? I'll send you a shout out."
SassyO: "I'll send the forms to your address."
