things I need to do

[silverflight8]

My to-read pile (the physical one, not the mental one that stretches faaaar into the horizon) is becoming absurd. In addition to the rest of W&P, there is an intriguing book about van Rijn (knows ~nothing about art history), several nonfiction about Cicero and fall of Republic, a YA fantasy The Exiled Queen, and I still have yet to finish Atlas Shrugged. Which I started months ago. Added to this pile of books is the second and third discs of the second season of In Plain Sight, practices for everything (at the moment, the only night/afternoon I have free is Sunday) and February is busy. On top of that I do not feel very productive. Edited a FAQ today, did other minor things, but still. I feel as though I should be much more focused than I am.

Did you know LJ has a to-do list feature? Unfortunately, if you are a Plus user, you can't set security (everything is public). Still, that's nifty; I don't think it's well documented, which may be why there seems to be little awareness that such a thing exists.

I am accumulating so much knowledge (read: trivia) from answering Support requests. I am quite fine with my one userpic on LiveJournal and have no desire to add others, but I am now more or less an expert on how à la carte userpics work; I had no idea syndicated feeds existed for LJ/DW and, uh, now I know how do look for date out of order entries with them; did you know that you can forward your domain to LJ? or banning makes it impossible for the banned to comment, but not unfriend them?...some days I feel like the interior of my brain is a library of semi-organized trivia.

Once you're done with Rand let us commiserate! xD

I did not know about the to-do list. Or other things. So this is nice. *adds to knowledge* I wonder if this will help me win The Weakest Link? Probably not.

I finished Anthem, does that count? >.> it was engaging while I read it, and then afterwards it felt exactly like an anvil of philosophy. Not subtle, that one, or perhaps I've just been primed because of Animal Farm and studying the USSR.

*googles* YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN TRIVIA WILL BE HANDY. Win four million dollars! *confetti*

It does. Blrght. I am quite anti-Rand, seeing as her fanboys (inevitably) are always entitled jerks. And she wasn't too prime a specimen either.

*googles with you*
