First there was Operation Computer Genius, followed by Operation Read-the-Library (never works out so well). It was only a matter of time before excessive alone-time spawned:
- Operation Sunday Waffles (priority 1),
- Operation Spring Cleaning (in which, I will, theoretically, reduce my belongings down to something manageable),
- Operation Slave-to-Money (aka employment),
- Operation Cure Cancer (yes),
- Operation Im Adventures (in which I go on fascinating adventures [usually to Rocky River. again] and write brilliant blog posts for the entertainment of Ims everywhere),
- Operation Self Sufficiency (things like, laundry, or, cleaning. sometimes. maybe.)
Left by myself, I do not claim to have any sense of reason or balance.
Operation Muscles of Steel included going to the park this weekend, where I combined cardio with caffeine and cookies (this is called “multitasking”). Genius. And the 100 push-up challenge, which is kicking my ass predictably, but I can do 30 push-ups now. Tell me I am not pro (you are a LIAR).
Operation Computer Genius continued at Caribou in Rocky River – reading for PHP class. (Shirley came too!) Instead of completing my reading efficiently, I spent the time augmenting the scope of my many, many on-going missions.
OCG now includes: free Harvard course on Dynamic Web Sites and reading HTML 5. Instead of completing any of these, I will likely add action items and draft official Operation outlines. Another picture to distract you:
Still, the best part of this week – discussing Iran Awakening with a roomful of 70-year-old alums (with attitude). Fantastic. Spider sitings have dwindled down to a bearable level. Life <3. Operation Slave-to-Money continues tomorrow with another riveting day of data entry. Happy Zombie Jesus Day!

. I am very excited about your current missions. Thanks to you, I too now aspire to cook a chicken way too big for my pot (this never before occurred to me).
Also, my meat counter adventures tend to go like: Me: “I need stuff. (Excited hand waving.)” Them: [Perplexed looks. Attempts at coherent conversation.] Me: “You know – have you ever eaten ______?” Them: [...] “So you mean something like this? [You could have just said chicken]” Me: “Yea, yea, like that! You are brilliant!” Them: [...] Me: (Running away)
Miss you tooo! <3
