"Halolololo, ich will nur sagen, dass die Weeeeide blüht!"

Diese Rotkehlchen hab ich minutenlang gesucht. Es war nicht zu überhören, aber erstaunlich gut getarnt. Wie viele unentdeckte Vogelarten es wohl gibt, die nur niemand findet, weil sie nicht singen?

The robins are especially noisy this week.

My husband just mentioned to me that they were sitting at the top of the neighboring tree this morning just belting it out.

"'HORNY! HORNY!'" I reply in jest.

He laughs.

I had to go look up this comic, and there is, indeed, a robin in it. Hah.

Browser Blues

A few years ago I went on a journey. A journey to find a new favorite web browser that wasn’t called chrome. I found one. It was… basically… ya know… chrome without actually being chrome. I settled on Vivaldi. I like it. I put it on my MacBook Pro, and my personal Windows desktop box, and my work laptop (just for personal stuff like my personal email and… ya know… this blog) and as soon as it was available I also put it on my iPhone and my iPad.

Yesterday the company I work for updated its list of approved applications and Vivaldi was not on it. Boo. In order to comply with the rules, I had to give it up on that machine. Firefox is on the list though, so I have brought that back for my personal use (while we all use Chrome for work use).

It is fine. No complaints about Firefox here it’s just… not the browser I want to use.

You know, it’s all fine and good and everything is okay and the universe isn’t spiraling down the drain and heading for the sewer. Yeah, that has nothing to do with web browsers it’s just… you know… blah. Boo.

Here’s a couple of pictures of a cat because even though the universe is collapsing into crap, cats are still fuzzy and cute and adorable.
