RTBTCKI First one for 2008

[puppetmaker]

Do you still find yourself writing 2007 rather than 2008? I have to admit that I am. It will probably sort itself out for me about mid-month.

The wind is vicious this morning. It will suck every molecule of warmth it can get out of you. This is a cover-up to avoid frost-bite kind of day. The snow showed up and went away just as fast. It was pretty for a brief time.

We watched Letterman last night. Robin Williams was on and he was "on" too. The top ten list read by writers who are still on strike was inspired. We will be watching it again tonight since it is under contract with the WGA.

Not much else happening on that front. The producers are being jerks and yet again offered less than the current contract only if the writers took a bunch of stuff on the table that the producers don't want to talk about (like the Internet). They are negotiating in very bad faith and biding their time until they can talk to the DGA about their contract.

Anyone know where I can get the fabric for Barbossa's coat? I have had no luck.

Today Peter is off to read a movie script he is writing the novelization of so we won't see him until late. Ariel has a bowling match. Caroline has her doctor's appointment. So it is a rather busy day for all of us.

I am grateful for finding the perfect fabric for a project

In January I'm usually super-conscious of it being a new year, so I usually don't get it wrong then. Come mid-February, I become more blase about it and wind up writing the wrong year.

Heh. I worked last night. Restarted my timesheet when I noticed the error in the date. Then proceeded to index an account with a date field, in which the default in the case that no date is on a document is "today's date."

I've no idea of how many times I typed"010208" last night (the application fills in the slashes), but I think I the year now.

Tell me again why they took rote-learning out of schools?
