The Curious Case of Disappearing Convenience in the Workplace A creative solution for hiding a refrigerator I came across this and had to laugh because just yesterday I was talking about finding a way to hide our department's printer. Now obviously hiding a refrigerator full of beer and a printer are for two completely different purposes and I don't condone drinking at work, but hiding a refrigerator and a printer are still related in their own bizarre way. Our company is taking all the printers away from each…
My site went from a daily average of 60 visits to a sudden spike of over 8,000 yesterday. At one point 385 people were on the site, so I am happy my web server was able to keep up with the demand (thank you, WordPress and WP Super Cache). The 400 pound snake story caused tons of people to visit yesterday from bing.com. I was ranked third on Bing, and as of today I am now first (if you don't count the Bing news article served up before…

If you are struggling to think of something, you may want to alter how you are living your life. Think about it—11,588 days. That's how I measure my time on…
As I mentioned in my previous blog post, we went to see Wicked on Saturday night at the Orpheum Theatre. The Safeway Employees' Association (SEA) was one of the group sponsors that night, so there were a bunch of people from Safeway. Before the show, we went to Osha Thai for dinner, which was really nice. We sat in the balcony, which ended up being great. I never once thought we were sitting too far away, or it was too difficult to see what was going on. Even…
I take my camera to as many places as I can, so when I was in Minneapolis, MN a while back I filmed a flour mill tour at the Mill City Museum. Minneapolis is called the “Mill City” and has lots of old mills that sit along the Mississippi River. This video isn't going to win any awards, but the museum did such a great job depicting the life of an average mill worker, I wanted to share it with you.
