Ready go!
I'm casually improving my ability to crossword, as I've got plenty of downtime at work and a few crosswords here and there, so I just kinda do them. I did two already today, both went pretty smoothly and I figured everything out, more or less. Yay me! So that's a thing.
I'm not sure if I said anything about it before ('cause as if I'm gonna re-read my old posts while I'm typing) but this little bluetooth keyboard I got for my tablet is pretty swell. It feels good, like laptop keys (and as such probably scissor switches), isn't loud, and my hands fit surprisingly well on it considering how small it is. One minor thing is that I find the apostrophy/quote key too small and end up hitting return more frequently than I'd like, especially considering how often I hit that key. It's already proven itself a minor annoyance whilst typing this up. Ah, well, nothing I can do but get a better feel for it, muscle memory is like 95% of typing, or so the statistic I made up just now says.
Speaking of keyboards, I really like my big one at home. It's all sorts of good, mechanical switches, excellent heft so it won't move without being intentionally moved, not nearly as clicky as other mechanical switch keys (intentionally so, I got...I wanna say MX Cherry Browns, maybe Blacks) but still audible to the point of people being able to tell I'm typing up a storm. Also different levels of blue LED intensity, which is fun... this is ringing all sorts of bells, have I talked about this in a much older post? Seems likely. Eh, c'est la vie.
Unrelated to anything prior, I've noticed lately that my dreams are much more intense and vivid whilst napping as opposed to my nightly sleep. Not that I can remember any of them clearly, 'cause I'm super not in the habit of writing them down, but they stick with me longer after rousing from slumber than the "transitioning from night to morning" sleeps/dreams. The last few were action packed, though I couldn't tell you what sort of action it was, they just...were.
So hey, December rolled around again, yeah? That's fun. Christmas and Mom/Lil'Bro Birthdays, N-Y Cheesefest 2015, present shopping, snow, cold and therefore scarves and other stylish accessories. Good times. I still need to figure out what I'm getting the parents, but I've mostly got the siblings figured out. Not that I'm gonna say what, 'cause I know at least 3 of them read these posts and I'm entirely for keeping presents a surprise and good at keeping secrets.
Alright, that was a fun hour and a half of actually doing things for work, people showing up or phoning or whatever, I've got some stuff ready for tomorrow and other stuff ready to be worked on tomorrow (natural light is a better comparative light source than these freakin' tube-bulb things, it's got a much wider spectrum of light that it emits), so that'll keep my day from being just absolutely the most boring thing ever tomorrow, but we may still get a ramblepost in, we'll see. Aside from that, I'm in the home-stretch for work tonight, so I should probably sign off and go about my business.
Cheers folks, it's been fun!
