11:30 pm - I got a sight in mind
In between other things, I've gone off to take pictures, a welcome moment of sanity in the insanity of life.
Something else. In my quest for cupcakes a few nights ago, just before 8pm, I figured maybe it was worth a try to see if any of the places the Post-Gazette liked might have any. #1 and #2 were closed, but one of the tied for #3, well, of course it was open.
So I went, and I got some. Sort of a cop-out, but so it goes.
Anyway, when checking out, I encountered something odd. I was at the self-checkout closest to the doors. And it's omniscient. I pointed at the on-screen "button" I wanted to press, not touching it, and it registered anyway. I figured "must be a fluke" until it happened again. I keyed in my PIN without touching the screen either.
Just think, a touchscreen which knows what you're thinking! More seriously, though, how about one that stays free of those icky fingerprints?

Hi. We've never met, but VA directed me to your journal during conversation (when we should both have been working) this morning. So, my name's Brandy, and I've friended you. :)
I didn't think she knew I had one until the afternoon.
I am pretty boring, I think, but, welcome.
Yeah, her workplace firewall blocks LJ, so she couldn't friend you right away. She mentioned that.
Anyway, no one is really boring, and we all put our most interesting side forward on LJ. I, for example, mostly write fan fiction. Lately it's been for Twilight, but there was a Harry Potter era as well. (naturally, or... not so naturally, depending upon whether you are a fantasy buff) So, don't be alarmed if you notice that half my post headings are story titles. You are under no obligation to read any of them. Lol!
Besides, you appear to have a link to pictures, and that's always fun. :) I'll go take a look a bit later. Nice to meet you. |
