I’m still flying high from a wonderful 3 hours of dance last night. I had a whole lot of energy, even at the end, and managed to do all right at keeping up. I blame the belly dance show last weekend. There are a fair number of posts this week. I’ve been oot and aboot. Roleplaying Tips: Delegating – I really like the idea of splitting up some of the administrative work in running a game, especially in a game with 5+ people that will be running for a long time. I've seen in a 4-year one-on-one game how difficult it is to keep track of what's happened and who…

This week’s internet cruising: YouTube – Shaq Comes Out The Closet Gettin Down To Beyonce’s Sweet Dreams In His Halloween Drag Costume – This is friggin' awesome. That man can work it! 20 Breathtaking Examples of Infrared Photography – Absolutely beautiful. Queuing Systems – Nice introduction to the differences between remote and local queuing systems. A step-by-step guide to wasting less food | Yahoo! Green – There are some good tips here, like saving leftover coffee, or making stuff (muffins, * butters, etc.) with too-ripe or overstocked fruit.

This week’s internet cruising: behavioral advertising icon – Coincidentally crossing my plate right after this tidbit of narrow-sightedness (see Greg’s comment there, too), I had to cackle a bit. I like the idea of disclosing–all the time, not just when you register for a service–that a site is gathering your behavioral information. I also agree that a weird triangle icon in the midst of a column of ads (text or image) won't get noticed and won't make sense. Release management, or “How to de-version your app” – Nice examination of the thought processes behind an app being released as a "beta", but not labeled as such, along with the classic…

For some reason, I felt like I didn’t have a lot of links this week for all the cruising I did, but I was wrong. I plowed through 280 Google Reader posts and was caught up as of yesterday afternoon. It may never happen again. The survey’s authors concluded that there was “widespread confusion” about “the line between teaching and preaching.” – I'd like to see the stats for people who had taken part in Unitarian Universalist religious education–my understanding is that that program spans multiple religions. Earning Extra Income with a (Small) Blog – Another very awesome post on self-publishing. Am I gearing up to something? I dunno. $72,000…

Everything’s a day behind this week. I wanted these out yesterday. Anyway, here’s this week’s internet cruising: The Little Easy – OMG, can I move into this house, please? Please? White Bean and Onion Confit (recipe) – I'm totally going to try this. Healthy and yummy-sounding (although that's quite a bit of oil). Graphic Designer’s Journey: Freelance to Freedom (Infographic) – Apparently I'm on a freelance kick today. This totally resonated with me. As much as I like people, client work can be rough. It's hard to maintain the cheerful and patient "service industry" outlook 40 hours a week. It feels much more satisfying to do your own work or…
