Things I Learned Today

Today had been full of learning experiences.  Below, I list a few of the most salient.

• Microsoft SharePoint 2007 is a tricksome witch, and sometimes it's better just to use Paint.
• Metro + headache + hunger + (being overdressed + poor ventilation) = the worst sensation ever.
• Pentagon is a really busy Metro stop.
• Pentagon City Mall is much less crowded right before rush hour on a Monday than it is on a Sunday afternoon.
• Optometrists can be hot too...
• ...but the optometrist back in Wisconsin who gave me my current prescription (who was not hot) clearly didn't know what he was doing.  Obviously, hot optometrists are better at what they do.
• First impressions can be misleading.
• If you are nice to people even though you have a dull ache behind one eye that makes you want to bite things, they will be nice to you.  So long as you don't bite them, presumably.
• 7-10 business days for new lenses feels like an eternity when your glasses give you daily headaches.
• Rush hour on Metro sucks.
• I need to drink more.
