Five Things Make a Small Post

1) I am home from visiting S's family.  I love my in-laws, but am warm for the first time in two days.

2) While in Ann Arbor, I found a place that will sell quail eggs to civilians.  I seem to be picking up my Technocracy game character's hobby of finding awesome ingredients and then researching what to do with them.  Best candidate so far--miniature eggs benedict on home-made croutons.

3) I have given in to pressure and joined the collective--I now have a Facebook page under my professorial name.  This basically exists so that I can check off the "understands social media" box on forms.  Impressions so far: the privacy settings are as evil as everyone says, and the interface reminds me a lot of Clippy The Cheerful Winking Paper Clip.

4) From my early Christmas gifts, I have stripey Garcia socks and a Tesla token!

5) There is a total lunar eclipse on for tonight Monday night.  Nothing visible yet; I think I'll stay up just a little longer. At 1 AM, I cannot read clearly; this is a good sign that I should go to bed.
