Standing Desk


Here I am, standing at my newly adjusted, standing desk. This isn't the first time I've worked at a standing work station. It will be the first time I've spent my entire day standing in one spot.

I haven't stood for work in years. I remember it hurting (THEPAIN) for the first 2 weeks. After that it was business as usual. I have a raised chair to go along with my raised desk. The key to adjusting to this station will be to avoid that chair like the plague.

Movies To See






With inspiration from my friend Lou IQ over at the 365 Instant Flix blog, I've decided to put together a short list of movies that I haven't had the chance to watch yet.

Five Popular/Classic movies that I haven't seen


1. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid


Currently available on Netflix Instant. Referenced in pop culture everywhere, now I'll know what they're talking about.

2. Breakfast At Tiffany's


Currently available on Netflix Instant. Any excuse to watch Audrey Hepburn, and I get to watch Hannibal from the A-Team. Win-Win.

3. Soylent Green


Currently available for free with Amazon Prime. I'm a Science Fiction fan and I've never seen Soylent Green? What is Soylent Green? Soylent Green is what...?

4. Pretty in Pink


Currently available for free with Amazon Prime. The Breakfast Club and Ferris Buehlers day off. Formative movies from my youth. I never saw Pretty in Pink or Sixteen Candle. Am I too late? Will it be awful?

5. To Catch A Thief


Currently available for free with Amazon Prime. I have never seen a movie by Alfred Hitchcock. Ever. In my life. If I like this one I hear there are a few more.
