Rain! Walked out the door this morning and saw clear blue sky, so I wasn’t convinced… but RAIN! (We seriously need it.)
*sigh* Google maps informs me that my usual route home is solid red. Rush hour + OMGWTF water from sky! Surface streets it is.

Watching Helvetica
Some thoughts on watching Helvetica, a documentary about the typeface:
- Nice quote: “You have to breathe, so you have to use Helvetica.”
- Interesting theme: journey of Helvetica from idealist design to boring routine. Kind of like how vanilla went from an exotic flavor to a synonym for plain.
Mall Crush
Must remember: just because the mall is the CLOSEST place to grab lunch doesn’t make it the BEST place, esp. 3 days before Christmas.
Sick Day
Oddly, after a day sick in bed, doing dishes felt good because I was doing something. I got a lot of reading done, though.
Personality “Type”
I tried out the Typealizer, which purports to analyze the text of a blog and determine the author’s personality type. Interestingly enough, it came up with different results depending on which of my blogs I pointed it to.
LiveJournal: ESTP – The Doers
K-Squared Ramblings: ESTJ – The Guardians (technically this one’s a group blog, but it looks like the tool only grabs the front page.)
Speed Force: ENTJ – The Executives
Opera Community blog: ISTP – The Mechanics
I seem to recall coming out as INTJ the last time I took the Myers-Briggs personality profile. The funny thing is that 3 of 4 classified me as extroverted. If you’ve ever met me in person, you know I’m not an extrovert.
