Hi There

I might be back; hard to tell.

You don’t care about this (really, you should be reading to your children or drawing a landscape in oil crayon or fine tuning your zombie invasion survival plans), but here’s what happened.

I used to blog from work until the Swiss internet police decided that there were better uses of employee time than commenting on or writing blog posts. Like watching our stock go down every day and listening to the public, government officials, and regulators tell us we suck required undivided attention. Whatever. I stopped blogging and focused a little more on other stuff. I used the time saved by not blogging for the past five months to buy a new pair of shoelaces and go to the bank. So that was nice. Also, I found a new job. Now I’m very busy and all that, but as Shrek said, “Better out than in”, so I plan to throw up some thoughts here from time to time.* I guarantee that they’ll be no more useful than anything previously written.

Without further ado, here is the comprehensive list of what I miss about my old firm:
- Hot milk

I am a creature of habit. I eat oatmeal for breakfast every day, unless Madame Delicious makes me something on a weekend morning. The best thing about my old firm was that the coffee machines could produce hot milk at just the right temperature for my oatmeal. It made a good breakfast into a treat. Warm, runny oatmeal in a cup every morning was the only thing to look forward to. And now it’s gone.

**Also, are you happy that gratuitously footnoted posts are back?

If only you had done this a week and a half ago, we could have been talking about DA's resurrection coinciding with our Lord's, albeit after 6 months vs. 3 days. Whatever.

Blah, Blah, Blah. All I heard was: "Honey I want french toast and bacon, now. And make it wearing a black merry widow and thigh highs."
