New Year Resolution

Ok, finally I decided to make a new year resolution. Here it is:
Try not to microwave food in tupperware containers.
Ok, so it's not particularly grandoise. But, from what I've heard (which might not be true but seems plausible), microwaving stuff in plastic or styrofoam is bad for your long term health. So theoretically this is a significant positive move. And it does require a certain level of effort since I bring rice to work for lunch almost every day.

Office move

This week was the office move. There were people bustling around the halls and the common areas and their own offices for a couple days near the end of the week... It made me think of a documentary showing cicadas or something... lying dormant for years, but all at once, the office awakens, and undergoes a flurry of frantic activity for just a couple days. Then, as suddenly as it all began, it's over, everything lies dead or dormant again, to be repeated in five years time.
