How to transition? You must have been at work when you wrote this, 'cuz 'transition' is a work-buzz-type word. If you'd been at home, you'd have written 'shift', or 'go', or 'change' or any number of other plain & simple English words.

Having skimmed Penelope's article, my visceral reaction to it tells me that there are different kinds of networking, different strategies, different schemes. What works for her doesn't work for me.

I wonder if this advice is meant for stainless steel coffee cookers rather than almuninimum ones. I wouldn't use vinegar on any aluminated products.

@Old-G-Man: Keyring contents - that's a good one!

I haven't found a way to make it work yet. And I see the problem of no metadata for some filetypes. But what if: 1) a given

Pacing. Know your best times for getting different things done. Take time off to make a clear distinction between work and not-work. Give yourself an outline plan every few hours, or at the beginning and end of each day.*

So what I want to do is add a little homing device to each file, a radioactive beacon, a coloured flag, something that my search

Things I've asked in comments over the past year and/or topics I have seen other people raise:

Beer. That's one of the 5 major food groups, yeah? Incidentally, it might be the hops, but I never drink/eat hops and don't have a bag next to my pillow, so I don't know if they have similar effects.

Jailhouse colors, marking time: looks like dotyoureyes has hit the nail on the head. Martha picked this one up in the slammer. Gangsta stylee. I do like the orderliness of it all, and if I had a jailhouse schedule it would stay nice and clean most of time.
