recapping the month of november ... because of the random order of topics, for ease of reminiscing-ish, nutshell is my recaps at the end of each month.on transforming ... i read blogs and pass my time in a variety of ways.
- security blogkets ... my go-to-blog reads that are like my security-blanket blogs. i continue to enjoy tyler's articles; this month i commented on his articles about on stating a commitment, about nice guys finish first, 16 reasons to unsubscribe to his site, and his top secret AR support team exposed.
- SHEDn and CYCCYLn ... took a little hiatus on this months posts, however, i have enjoyed the two teleconferences with kit.
- transitioning into the year ... starting a few activities into the new year - healthmonth and reverb10.
- fiber breaks ... never a loss for fiber breaks each weekend (and then some 'tweeners) and this month i found obvious breaks - the sets of comedians i enjoy; this month included nick kroll (as fabrice fabrice), myq kaplan (who is sooo clever and witty AND funny!), matt braunger (two funniest names bit), . and not quite a reader's fiber break, but my fiber break of fulfilling some of the venn diagram wisdom, a l'il david sedaris lovin', toonces (from SNL) the driving cat, will & grace's jack mcfarland and coffee, a scene from mike & molly with victoria and molly, the elements song with mr. harry potter himself (daniel radcliffe) on the graham norton show, and gilligan's island.
- pop culture me ... many fiber breaks also involve pop culture, however, then there were non-fiber moments with the humor shared about missing missy (via 27bslash6) that has brought tears of laughter to cubeopolis, snark and judgment about the fashion show ultimate collection (episode 1, episode 2, episode 3), and thanksgiving chuckle with wkrp's infamous turkeys away episode.
- on cubeopolis proper ... this month included a post with pretty much the cut/paste content of the transmittal cover memo contents for an internal position i submitted my interest, prepping for annual performance review, thoughts about personal branding inspired by a friend interviewing for some positions in cubeopolis, and selecting a veggie recipe(s) for an upcoming luncheon potluck.
- on r|cubicle ... the beginning of (re)cubicle started this month. i decided to fashion my "roll out" (it's not all that, but it sounds good) within the classic cubeopolis recipe of the meeting phenomena activities - meetings to meet about meetings - a necessary staple, actually. in this case, the roll-out happened over 3-1/2 meetings (maybe i can call it 4 meetings). the result of meeting #1 with myself - a prep-meeting for a brainstormed-stream-of-consciousness long list about ideas for the backdrop r|cubicle. the result of the meeting after the prep-meeting (meeting #2) was my initial short-list.
- inspiring words ... although i did not post stories or poetry this month, i did share a little about my design fix.
- for the heck of it, random posts ... this month included continued love of my fluevogs, love of sade, more love of fluevogs, and vintage cal bears t-shirt.
- i love people ... friends (and acquaintances) then and now - the oracle is someone i realize i can say i've known for nearly a decade when back in the day he shared some quippy quotes; although college buddy is not named - a post for him; a little post when i heard about my friend's husband's death; todd will cut you;
- reposts from flashbacks ... my r.i.p. eco-sphere pet mitch, congrats to my friend, anna, who recently married and many years ago nicknamed me shylock.
visit with me ... this month i have decided to add a nutshell section some of the sites i have visited - mainly for ease of revisiting and remembering why i even bothered to share something about a site - kind of my accountability web visits, as if someone
- learning about myself - results of survey of character strength is from visiting the university of pennsylvania's authentic happiness about positive psychology. i continue to think about thoughts on ignorance as shared here and visited tim wise's site. and i'll be engaged with reverb10 and healthmonth as part of my your heart's desire activities.
- laugh out loud (or quietly) - pictures and words from 27bslash6 are hilarious, perhaps a cubeopolis cartharsis via despair.com. i enjoy comedians including nick kroll (here, here, and over here on tv's the league), myq kaplan (here, here, and on twitter and part of a twitter duo), and matt braunger (here, here, and on twitter). then there is ms. emily mccombs who is asylum's "token girl" and has "a women's perspective on ..." bits (love it!).
- swirling r|cubicle thoughts - coming across escape from cubicle nation was a light/dark moment all in a good way and perhaps quite a bit of why i have been thinking about r|cubicle.
- i learned something new - learned about crushqueens and pedal stomp after sporting my fluevogs. (re)learned about movember, and i do have a college friend with prostate cancer. (re)learned about the ecosphere - it's part of the whole enviro world i live in. and (re)learned about my design fix with design observer, glass house conversations, and risd; i am looking forward to risd's john maeda's blog posts.
- pop culture fix - i visit blogs as part of my pop culture fix (of course). for recaps of the fashion show ultimate collection, three sites - david dust, tom & lorenzo, and racked.
- i read - i love david sedaris; 'nuff said!
it's december!
