I don't normally throw out random links, but this one gave me a chuckle. It's images from old food advertisements where the kids end up looking demonic in their steely grins.

I'm just coming off of a weekend watching the kids. Parts were rough, parts were great, and now I'm returning to work for a bit of rest. Work's been fairly good these last couple weeks. I've been doing interesting work and slowly gearing up for a couple major projects. One of the big ones involves creating standards for how our team writes applications, which is going to be exciting. It's been awhile since I've had to learn a fairly different way of doing things.

I'm looking forward to Spring, which seems to be tiptoeing its way slowly back. I've been trying hard not to look too closely at our front garden, which is a mess of dead and decaying plants.

I swam to work this morning, braving the pouring rain and cursing my lack of proper protection for my shoes. I've taken them off and stashed them under my desk, hoping my socks dry before lunch time. I thought about taking them off and letting the heat from my big CRT monitor dry them off, but my cubicle neighbors might complain.

I'm glad I came to work last Wednesday as my e-mail to-do list isn't too bad. I'm still going through and reading things, but hopefully that phase of the morning should be finished soon. Then it'll be the part when I actually have to do things, including several projects that I've put on hold while I was out on vacation.

Fortunately it's technically a business holiday and most people are at home watching football games and the like. I'm hopeful that means I can get some work done and feel somewhat caught up.
