Random Thoughts Thursday 183

  • BIG NEWS! Today we are going to the veterinarian to fill out an adoption application and put down a deposit for KITTENZ!
  • UM, THIS IS A PROBLEM. I was trying out the new Gmail and IT DOESN’T HAVE LABS. WTF NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I switched back to the old version. I use the “Undo Send” lab A LOT. A LOT A LOT.
  • I tried to apply for a different position at work yesterday and it almost didn’t happen because the system is such a total pita/pos. But I finally got it in! I doubt I will get an interview, but, eh, worth a shot.
  • Until yesterday, all of my June runs were between 47-61°F. That seems cool for June (I am NOT complaining). Yesterday’s run was 76°F. That felt more like June!

  • And your weekly reading update: I finished Artemis and started California. It was nice to go from Endure, which was hard for me to read, to an easy-read like Artemis!

  • When Mom and I saw Book Club last Saturday, the theater only had a few people in it, and a person seeing the movie alone came and sat right next to me. You can pick an assigned seat at this theater, and maybe they picked that one and didn’t feel like they should move to another, but I have to admit, I was a bit annoyed. Especially since they talked to themselves through a lot of the movie.

  2. Rachel says:

    KITTYYYYY!!! Are you getting one or two?

    What position did you apply for? Super exciting (though annoying about the system)

    Text me updates!!! 🙂

      We’re thinking two! I will let you know how many we put down a deposit for (we are going this afternoon).

      It’s a project manager position in a different division (cause you know how I feel about the ones in my division, ha!).

      Will do!!!

  3. Heather says:

    Yay kittens!! Can’t wait for pictures!

    Good luck with the job app!

    YAY FOR ALL THE KITTENS!!! That will be so fun to watch their antics on your blog. 🙂

    I am not happy with Google right now – they’ve stopped sending email notifications when someone comments on my blog, and it’s happened to everyone who uses Blogger. They’ve known about this since May 25th but haven’t fixed it, and have made only one short post that they are working on a quick fix. Uh huh, riiiiiiight. Anyway, I hope you get the job!

    • kilax says:

      Yes! I can’t wait to see what they destroy! I kid, I kid…

      UGH that would make me SO MAD. I hope they do actually fix it. Google has a tendency to just drop products and features 🙁 (Remember Google Reader?!)

    I did not care for Artemis. What about you?

    What the heck is Gmail Labs?

    • kilax says:

      It wasn’t my favorite read of the year, but I didn’t hate it!

      Labs are “testing grounds” for experimental features in gmail. I have canned responses, undo send, google calendar widget, and mark as read button installed. It’s under settings (unless you’re in the new one).

  6. Kittens!!! Oh man, I can’t wait to hear more about them! So exciting! I hope every post includes at least four kitten pictures moving forward.

    • kilax says:

      Ooo! I wish I would have read this earlier, I should have included some in my race report! I will add some pics to my email 😉

  7. Mica says:

    Yay, I’m glad you have the application in for the kittens. I can’t wait until they’re home with you and you can tell us about their personalities and quirks!

  8. Stephany says:

    YAY KITTENS. I’ll be reaching out to you for ALL OF THE ADVICE when I finally decide I’m ready for one of my own. I’ve never owned a cat before, so I have no idea what to expect!

    Fingers crossed about the new position!
