Random bits and bobs

I have decided that, at the end of this week, I am going to post an image showing you what my original schedule was (as I received it on Friday) and the hours I actually wound up working. The utter ridiculous fuckery of this will serve to illustrate why I have no spoons left for communication, no beers left for social, and no fucks left for bullshit.

That's right. I just used three different theories to explain energy. How'dya like me now?

***

I wrote myself an anti-procrastination manifesto. I foolish left out things that don't have to do with the computer, like cleaning my room, or grocery shopping. This might turn out to be problematic for me, except I honestly don't expect to be still following the rules in more than a week anyways.

At any rate, if I'm still managing to do it next Tuesday, I'll post it up, so you can all laugh at how pathetic the rules I came up with are. Whee.

***

ADB is, as always, not dead but not exactly active. Anyway, I posted a thing about choreography not being the most important part of dancing. You can read it if you're into that sort of nonsense. It gets meandery, I should probably rewrite it now that I've figured out what the actual topic is.

***

I'm off to work shortly. This is okay because BIKE and it's utterly beautifully gorgeous out. Highly recommended! Go outside today, if you are somewhere it is nice!

***

Both my voice and my left wrist/hand are shot, and work is only going to make them worse. Is there a word for amused and exasperated all at the same time?

See y'all later.

MOOP!

Have to agree on communication, not choreography, being the most important part of dance. If you're in a set, this involves communication among the set, making you a -set-, not just a bunch of solo dancers who happen to be doing complementary things. If you're in a couple, then the need for communication should be obvious--and if you're doing lead-follow, well, it better be.

But even in solo dancing, I'd argue that communication is the most important bit. There, it takes the form of expression -- internal just to express, or broadcast or two way with anyone watching (you don't -actually- want to dance like nobody's watching; it's more complicated than that).

BTW, any chance you can drop the feed url (http://ambidanceboston.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default) on the site somewhere? I had to go hunting to find out how blogger formats feeds since it's not anywhere on the site.

[link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Ambidancetrous in Boston - RSS" href="http://ambidanceboston.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss" /] is there. If your browser doesn't tell you about it, shame on it. There's also a "Subscribe to Posts" thing at the bottom, which is the ATOM link instead of the RSS link, but since you posted the ATOM link anyway, I assume your reader can handle it.

Oh, for all the love of Ghu...

Yeah, Firefox 10 no longer has the syndication icon in the url bar as an automatic feature. Instead, they have the icon available to put wherever you want -- which means it didn't even occur to me that there were syndication links because I'm used to seeing them if they're there.

Fscking cheese-movers!

That said, the "subscribe to posts" only lets you subscribe to posts on the current page, not the whole blog -- useful for a particularly active page, but...

the "subscribe to posts" does what you want, on the front page

So it does. It was sufficiently visually similar to the ones on individual posts that I assumed it was the subscription link for the last post.

Regardless, I'm glad that I ended up flailing around and complaining about this as it highlighted the fact that I needed to reconfigure Firefox to have it display my beloved syndication link again.
