1. Leave a comment, saying you want to be interviewed.
2. I will respond; I will ask you five questions.
3. You'll update your journal with my five questions, and your five answers.
4. You'll include this explanation.
5. You'll ask other people five questions when they want to be interviewed.

Meanwhile, in work-land, we continue to be pounded by people having power-related problems, virus-related problems... and lack-of-neurons-and-courtesy related problems. It constantly infuriates me how many people call up, listen to a menu that starts thusly:

'For Hardware, Connectivity, CAPS or Telephone issues, press 1'

...and they're calling for a password reset for the employee website. And so we reset them, and tell them how they can reset themselves... and they call back in three months or less.

We're dealing with major airports being down and a virus, and these... people....!!

You know 90% of them don't even introduce themselves? I answer the phone politely, ID where they're calling and give them my name, and they just blurt their petty idiocies at me without even telling me who I am talking to.

Maybe... I had too much cake after all (sucrose rage).

Meanwhile, my car said it was 33C, my National Public Radio said it was 88F, and everybody I know is sweltering extraordinarily. Sheesh. Enough already, weather!

Said car got me to work in a normal almost-late fashion once again, without any incident more alarming than annoying-slow-drivers.
