We need to do a purge at work. We have 2006/2007-era Latitudes lying around, a drawer full of analog VGA cables, hard drives with data on them that need to be purged (physically locked up, thankfully), stacks of retired servers. Bleh.
I purge my stuff every six months. I tend to keep some odd reference materials because I'm the person likely to be asked and so I keep those things. I do keep it deliberately cluttered because I've had coworkers who will borrow documents without returning them and the clutter keeps them at bay. But it's surface clutter. A camouflage of clutter that is basically surface deep. Enough to keep my things where they need to be. Opening up the draw with my tools reveals random binders and bid docs. Lifting them up you'd find each tool laid out meticulously. My other option was a false bottom to the drawer but that's more of a project then I'd like, and under the circumstances would give away it's secret all too soon.

"We were just talking about how much we miss you."
Person hasn't messaged me in 7 months.
This is how I am to everyone, but I really do miss them!
Maybe I'm a little aggravated by this, but man I would totally love to hear an explanation for why so many people have such a hard time initiating contact.
Like, when I miss someone, when someone pops into my head and I wonder what they're up to, I message them. A lot of people don't seem to do this!
It gets really tiring being the guy who always starts the conversation. Saying you miss someone when at any time all you need to do is send them a text just seems like a really shallow interpretation of the word.
i often think i will be bothering them
it's because of anxiety and depression
i've skipped out on things i've been specifically invited to because i think i will be imposing/unwanted. it's not rational. welcome to that area of stuff.
I'm just not sure how silence, without any explanation from the person who never starts the conversation, is supposed to be interpreted as anything more than not really caring.
Because if you never say anything, and I stop saying things, and fate doesn't happen to intervene
it kinda seems like you just let a friendship fizzle out.
And that takes enough time that I'm not sure how someone could do that without being aware of it.

Then again, I have a hard time remembering if "balaclava" is the one that goes on your face or in your face.
I can't either. It's why I could never be a merc. I would just end up ordering lot of pastry. Sure it would be delicious but it wouldn't be tactical.
What if you left it out and ambushed the enemy when they have their mouths full and fingers all sticky with honey, disabling them?
But then I have half as much to eat myself. Also my hands would be sticky with honey and then it's just a really awkward ambush. Everyone fumbling for their guns, only half paying attention because they are wondering where they get more delicious pastry....

I did it motherfuckers. 2:26:02 is my official time. I was aiming for 2:30 and am surprised and elated by how well this race went. I felt really good pretty much right up to the end (until the last two miles when i slowed down considerably). Holy shiiii
dis me b4 bein all fuk u i got dis
dis me doin run i totally look liek im havin fun i bet
dis me really close to the finish after i ditched my sweaty jacket by throwing it in Beasto's face and then noticed him snapping a shot. I think i almost hit the girl behind me in the face woops
they give you a baller medal for finishing. fancy as fuk man
Then after Beast and I went to Sushi Palace which lets you order as many sushis as you want until you get full and boy did we eat
it was so gud. gud day. Beast was awesome waking up really early so he could come hold my shit and cheer me on. tired and fatigued a lil but fuggin worth it. those endorphins, man. fuck yesssssss
Awesome, grats, especially on beating your goal time.
It was 60 degrees for the second time this year today in Maine, and I went for a run. It was fun. I'm so excited to be able to run and not have snow and ice on the roads.
Also, this seems as good a place as any, but I've decided that anytime anyone in chat posts anything inspiring in a fitness sense, I'm going to knock out 20 pushups right then.
I liked iTunes database syncing model. Sometimes I think I'm the only one who liked it on its own merits. I had way too much music in the iPod days and found it useful to set up sync rules rather than drag stuff on and off. It took a little more thought but it made my usage possible, which it wasn't before.
Now everything lives is some kind of nebulous cloud database so you don't have to drag files or setup sync rules. Not gonna pretend that's not an improvement in every sense.
Nah there are a lot of people who liked it.
Even as tech minded and DIY as I am, every time someone extolls the merits of self-managed folders filled with their MP3s and synching to the player like it were a flash drive as some kind of a good thing compared to what itunes (and later Zune) did I just don't get it. Purposefully making your life harder to be in control of something that in no way needs you in control of it is just the peak of wasted energy.
I don't think I know what you mean by making my life harder
I literally just dragged a box over my music folder, copied, went to the E:/MP3PLAYERNAMEHERE drive, and pasted
Some say that programjunkie still drags and drops media to devices to this day. Oooowwww! Spooky!
(seriously, it's easy)

it's hard to just send a text sometimes
Yes, but I'm talking about every time.
almost all of the time
it's just... it'll be kinda weird no I'll not text
I don't even have anxiety so it's not me freaking out about it's just
I dunno, being even slightly proactive can randomly be like a cross to a vampire

That was six months ago. She's asking me to do it again and I'm trying to put it off because fuck dealing with that.
This is exactly me too.
The worst is when you go "Add this folder with a whole album to iTunes" and iTunes goes "Ok" and then only does 10 of the 12 songs.
It won't tell you it didn't do all 12, it won't tell you why it won't do them, it just won't happen. No error message, no nothing. It's the kind of error you don't even know happened till ages later and then has no clear solution beyond fiddling with the file's tag till iTunes stops being a stupid piece of shit software with a horrible user experience.

I can miss someone without wanting to write them a message. I don't enjoy writing messages very much, or long-form correspondence. In general, I'm not big on that sort of maintenance--let's have a phone call. No thanks.
In general, I meet up with old friends a few times a year--over the holidays, a summer trip, etc.,--and that's good for me. I enjoy their company a lot and I'm always happy to see them. If I had the chance to move to be closer to them, their presence would weigh heavily in my decision. But that being said, as much as I enjoy being around them and spending time with them, I'm just not that into e-mailings and etc.

Well, I dunno about something small, fluffy and tasty, but it's aural proximity to baklava definitely makes it sound like food.
