Gotta keep 'em separated
Today I'm thankful for ...
... Remember The Milk. What a great simple piece of software. Web-based and you can take it offline with Google Gears. Yay. I've been trying to organize my life and I have a lot of things I need to track right now. Fortunately RTM is keeping them all neatly squared away...

Silver lining
Today I'm thankful for ...
... looking at today's staff reduction as a way to free up time to tackle some really interesting problems. A little idea that I've been working on the side may yet become a full-fledged product. I'm totally excited that I get to create my day now and be able to tackle these things.

Not sick yet
Today I'm thankful for ...
... not getting sick yet. I've been feeling ill off and on. I'm not sure exactly why but I find it annoying.

All y'all rock
Today I'm thankful for ...
... a wonderful day filled with cake, friends, cake, good food, cake, games, cake, staying up late, and more cake. I seriously have so much cake that I don't know what to do with it! I'm also so glad that two restaurants were able to hold our large group.

Truthiness
Today I'm thankful for ...
... more and more reports coming out about how the campaigns worked from the inside, like the recent Newsweek special series:
Barack Obama: How He Did It
John McCain: Back From The Dead?
An excellent read.

A shoulder
Today I'm thankful for ...
... a shoulder to lean on. Though the going has been tough, you've been there for me to give me a hug when I need it. Thank you.

Hold ... hold!!!
Today I'm thankful for ...
... the boyfriend not being so sick as to miss the concert. We ended up at the Electric Six concert tonight and after taking some medication he was feeling really green. But the wave of nausea seemed to pass eventually and we were able to stay all the way through the antics of Electric Six. Definitely worth going to. :)

Dreamers
Today I'm thankful for ...
... being a dreamer and finding another dreamer. The two of us have been talking about where we want to go with the Toaster Project and I think we will eventually find an angle for this thing that will make it work.

In people I trust
Today I'm thankful for ...
... all of the news going out about Prop 8 and about the weirdness in the McCain campaign. I'm hoping tonight for a revolution: I hope that Obama can pull it off. Only hours to go before the polls open.

En masse
Today I'm thankful for ...
... ADF scanning! Holy moly is this feature ever useful.
I recently got a Canon MX310 scanner/copier and it is THE machine. I am now such a fan of the automatic document feeder it's crazy. I can put a stack of documents in it, go to Photoshop and say Import, and all get sucked into the machine! Then I can recombine all the files into a PDF to send off. This is SO much faster than what I had to do before it's crazy!

Phase 1 Done
Today I'm thankful for ...
... successfully completing Phase 1 of our Fillmore Grind renovation project. The 3rd coat of paint went up really quick and we had some professional help this time. It's also amazing to see how many other people are getting involved with the project! We had two very good conversations today with people who are going to help with some significant projects. Another individual is looking to help redo the floors and redo the counter area---we don't have a solid commitment yet but we're working to try to figure that part out.

So quick!
Today I'm thankful for ...
... a super speedy second coat of paint. We were very worried that we wouldn't have enough volunteers to get Coat #2 done, but it went up so quickly it was crazy! Also, we had some fine contributions from friends who were able to hit Costco and get us some things to stock the shelves. I also hit Smart and Final and picked up some additional items for Mike.

What a crew!
Today I'm thankful for ...
... a great number of awesome volunteers. We really couldn't have done today's job without them.
