There have been some naughty monkeys at work, and word has come down the wire that access to sites like Facebook and Twitter will be blocked. Boo! I rarely visit Facebook at work, but I’m on Twitter for most of the day. They’re also going to be blocking Flickr, which sucks. I’m not that concerned about it – I don’t use the sites much at work and if I really wanted to engage in some anti-productivity, I can either log into my PC at home or just use my iPhone. I do question how they came about the sites they’re blocking, though. If you really want to stop people from wasting time, why the hell wouldn’t you block YouTube? I see people on Facebook a lot, but I see them on YouTube more. Yes, I have a personal vendetta against YouTube, but that is neither here nor there. I don’t think they’ve blocked all the sites yet – I can still access Twitter and Flickr, but about a minute after I read the decree from above I got an email saying someone had sent me a picture via Facebook. I tried to look, but nope – blocked. Now I’m going to spend the day wondering what Mike tried to share with me. I must know! I cannot take the suspense!

The rest of January is looking to be fairly exciting. There are many exciting things on my calendar, including some that are yet to be confirmed but will be completely awesome if it happens. My next two weekends are booked – this Saturday is Indie I Do on Main Street, which I’m really looking forward to. I may not be looking to get married again, but I can still drool over all the things I wish I was able to incorporate into our wedding – and hey, who said you have to be getting married to doll yourself up in fancy gear? I scoff at the notion that I cannot be utterly decadent and fabulous simply because it is Tuesday. I love indie crafty things, and even though Miranda is making me work the event, I will sneak away to look at all the pretty things and covet anything covered in tulle and sequins.

I better get back to work before someone decides to block our access to Google.
