User Tested; Murray Approved

I enlisted the help of my boyfriend in user testing both my webpage and the blog for my final project. After much grumbling, eye rolling, and clicking, I got the thumbs up. This isn't much of a surprise, as (1) neither project is very complicated and (2) us modern folk are, on the whole, quite Internet savvy.

Yay me. Yay civilization.

Wii Fit Called Me Fat

*Note: Above image not actually representative of me. I swear.

A machine called me fat. That's it. They win. The machines have already won. In the future, when we look back and try to figure out how the machines became more powerful than humanity, we'll have to stop and drop our heads at this point.

We gave them the power when we told them they could dictate how we view ourselves.

I'm fat? I'm faaaat!

Well congratulations Wii, you made me feel like crap. I'm gonna go have a donut and a milkshake...mixed together - with some maple syrup on the side for dippin'.

Hoarse

I'm undergoing my second bout of laryngitis in about as many months.

This time the culprit is seasonal allergies. The beautiful weather as of late has brought an onslaught of microscopic invaders which have taken up residence in my head. Their favorite spots seem to be my nose and throat.

My voice has been reduced to what I imagine a unicorn with a slit throat would sound like.


I've tried Claritin, hot tea and lemon. Nothing has helped. Usually the prescription is time but I have to go to work and I can't work from home tomorrow.

Maybe I should see a doctor...
