*taps the clock* Hey! Spring forward already. Could you go any slower? *taps the clock again.*
Yes, it's one of those joyous days where my motivation and energy levels are dueling for the basement. It feels as if I've been at work for at least twelve hours already, when it's noon and i've only actually been here since eight.
Fortunately, my department is having a going-away party for two people who i've never met at 3ish, so the day will end a bit earlier than usual. Now all i have to do is come up with something to occupy myself for the intervening 168 or so minutes until the escape.

Wheee! I'm amused. Ryan Geiss is a pretty brilliant guy, I think. Drempels are one of his ongoing projects. They now interlace with your Windows desktop if you so choose (sorry, Mac and *ix users, I don't think versions exist for you yet) and provide fluid, constantly changing desktops. Amazingly fun to watch. I can't remember who showed me the original work on them (i've had some of the iterations of the screensaver for a few years), but mad props to revseandoe for showing me the desktop one. I'd forgotten all about them until sitting here bored i just happened to go look for them.
