Snow day! Sort of anyway…

December 1st, 2006 · 2 Comments

We have winter! It could be worse, but I decided not to risk it in my non-sure-footed car on the 1st snow. Blowing, freezing fog, snow, sleet, visibility issues. Most people have to re-experience how to drive in the snow and they drive like they never have done it before the first time.

So, I’m working from home this morning; doing meta-thesaural work. I need to provide some info and views on how I see the thesaurus, or don’t see it, to be more accurate. Then we’ll try and have a meeting Mon or Tue afternoon next week. Wish me well. I need some help visualizing the thesaurus or else I’m the wrong person for the job. I have plenty to work with as to providing an overview of the situation, including details about any specific terms and what I did with them.

I made a 2nd (small) pot of coffee and got out the biscotti for my 2nd snack of the morning. I can stay toasty and watch the early winter swirl around outside while getting work done. This is a nice ending to the week.

So. Welcome to December. It’s off to work I go….

    Brrr… the temps have plummeted in Buffalo, and methinks the snow and freezy stuff is en route. I was also home today (normally off Fridays) cuddling up with pupster, orange/dutch chocolate coffee, and my trusty laptop.

    I look forward to hearing more about visualizing the thesaurus. I tend to visualize it like the universe… ever expanding but bound to collapse back on its own gravity. (because I think of it in terms of tagging, naturally. hee). But I need reigning in on that one… :)

    I got a version of my concerns out and a meeting scheduled for Monday afternoon. Let’s hope I (and others) can visualize it.

    I’m thinkin’ about you, girl. I made you a copy of resonance and needs wrap and post it. I also have some other things to point you at to tide you over until I have time to consider making you a mix. But there have been other things in my way. Maybe I’m getting myself together. I hope.
