Mar. 22nd, 2014 02:26 pmWell, that was a week. Bloody hell. It certainly wasn't all bad -- I mean, I got to see ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
norwoodbridge on Tuesday night, even, and we went to Staples together -- it was just so fast and long and unrelenting, another week of working until after midnight each night. But to focus on the good things: my self-review, the one in which I'm going for promotion, is submitted. Over with. Done.

Last night I remembered -- or, rather, looked up the latest way to -- add a random RSS feed to my LJ page. So today I went over to feedly, which I never actually use, and imported the few things I care to read on LJ, creating some syndicated accounts in the process.

robot_hugs and 3eanuts_rss and jimsjournal_rss... dirtynormal already existed. Say goodbye to that random feeling of missing out. No, LJ isn't Google Reader, but it is something I read every day.

- "The personal is not necessarily the important."
- "It's pronounced 'kuh-THAY'." <--- "It" being the Cthaeh, the bad thing in the tree in book 2.
