Amazon women on my monitor
I bought some bras on Amazon.com a month or so ago, and now my personalized Amazon homepage is all sexed up.
This lovely lady was today's featured image.
While I appreciate the idea of customized shopping pages, that "Long-Sleeved Mesh Sleep Shirt and Matching Lace G-String" really isn't my style.
But yeah, if you want to see sexy ladies on your Amazon homepage every time you login, order a bra through the site. I feel like I'm shopping for books at Frederick's of Hollywood.
(Note: I'm not actually shopping for books. I'm doing research on Jesse McCartney for work, and it's starting to hurt my brain.)

I should've known.
The DVD player in my computer has been screwing up like crazy. I had to watch a movie tonight for work, and it stopped halfway through and wouldn't start again. I opened up the DVD drawer to see if there was something wrong with the new DVD, and it looked fine. Then I started blowing on the little tray, thinking maybe it was dusty (the old-Nintendo-cartridge school of computer repair). While checking for dust, I noticed that one of the circular parts had a long pink hair wrapped around it.
I pulled the hair out, tried again, and the DVD played fine. This is the first time my hair has sabotaged my computer. Usually it just breaks vacuums.

I knew it would happen.
For the first time ever, I just talked to my
Roomba as if it has a mind of its own. It was running in the other room while I worked at my computer. After a minute or two, I heard a horrible noise, so I ran over to see what had happened. It had sucked up the cords for my blinds and was caught inside a plastic bag I had left on the floor. Here's the conversation that followed:
ME:
What are you doing?
ROOMBA: [silence]

New York Times silliness
This
New York Times article is about how business people are drowning in unnecessary email. After reading it, I noticed the "email this" button at the top of the page. I love the idea of sending an unnecessary email about unnecessary email. If this story shows up on the "most emailed articles" list tomorrow, I will laugh a lot.
UPDATE: Aww, look, I got my wish:

People are so silly.
