I fell off the Blogtoberfest wagon!

So, as you might have noticed, I fell of said wagon a few days ago.  I've been swamped, tired, and suffering from a lack of things to say.  We're off to Snail's school concert tonight, so hopefully I'll have some nice photos to share tomorrow.  I'm going to post out the rest of the month, even though I've missed a few :D

Here are some amusing and interesting links in lieu of my own personal genius.

What NOT to do in email - @ the Oatmeal.  Click through to read them all, tis made of funny.

Cool Star Wars stuff I wantz real bad - here at zazzle. 

On keeping a calendar (I sent this one to DinnerDad) - from Off the Hoof.

Meetings may be toxic, but calendars are the superfund sites that allow that toxicity to thrive. All calendars suck. And they all suck in the same way. Calendars are a record of interruptions. And quite often they’re a battlefield over who owns whose time.

In my experience, most people don’t schedule their work. They schedule the interruptions that prevent their work from happening. In the case of a business like ours, what clients pay us to make and do happens in the cracks between meetings, or worse, after business hours.  [...] 
“I’m adding a meeting” should really be “I’m subtracting an hour from your life.”

 And finally, the hilarious Hyperbole and a Half - the God of Cake.
