- On my new computer, I can actually use Chrome (it made my old computer unhappy). One of the (many) excellent things about Chrome is that I can make any web page into an application. I assume it is still a web page deep down, but it looks like an application to me, which makes it easier to find and less annoying (since I don’t have tons of evergreen web pages open). I have made applications for gmail, reader, google docs, and blogger. I did not on purpose make applications only for google properties; that is just how it happened.
- You know how it is a giant pain to get a person on the phone when you call a company, and sometimes even to get a phone number to talk to a machine? One of the (very many) things I love about Vanguard is that they do not make it hard at all. And now they are making it even easier: right on my personal account homepage they give me their phone number, and I know from experience that I can be talking to a human being (and a knowledgeable, competent one at that) in just a few minutes.
- For many years I have had unhappy feet. Dry, yucky, itchy, painful, ugly, scaly feet. And now I do not, because for the last two weeks I have been semi-religiously using Curel Targeted Therapy Deep-Penetrating Foot Cream before going to sleep. This stuff is amazing. It is not like regular moisturizer, which at most can reduce the severity of my foot trauma. It has special healing powers. I do not care that it makes my hands feel greasy and gross or that it costs $6.50 for a rather petite tube. For the first time in years, my feet are not unhappy, and they are starting to look and feel like they are composed of actual human skin. From the top, with my toenails painted, they actually look pretty.
