Considering legally changing my name at this point. What I've learned so far: - I love staying home until someone tells me I have to - Long car rides are an excellent way to take a conference call - My 80s poofy hair is back, baby! (offer not valid at hairline and crown)

Once upon a time there was a quiet little Gartner research area called "work from home". Suddenly, things happened and it was no longer even a little quiet. Want to join my team? Seeking an eager analyst for End User Technologies! gartner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/EXT/job/Stamfo…

My annual list of overused words/phrases that need to die this year: - Just sayin' - That's what I'm talkin' 'bout (when you were not, in fact, just talkin' 'bout that) - "try and", a.k.a. "tryun", when you mean "try to" - The suffix "-wise"

Just realized the password to my Amazon account is the same one I made up to use on BBSes in the 80s. Successfully changed now. Having a very productive Friday.
