I’ve been looking at a couple random things lately. One of the top things I’ve been looking at is a standing desk. I read an article on Lifehacker about standing at a desk instead of sitting at a desk all day long. Particularly when using the computer. It made some sense to me and I kind of like the idea. While I can’t buy a new desk for work, or even have space in my office for a new desk, it still sounds like an interesting idea. Although, the one thing they talk about in depth is comfortable footwear while standing, and my shoes are not as comfy as running shoes are, which is what they recommend in the articles.
Another couple of articles I read regarded spaces after sentences. There apparently is a hot debate about one space or two spaces after a sentence. I’m currently typing this with only one space after each sentence, but man is it taking a lot of thought and effort to do that. I’m of the two spaces after a sentence person. Its ingrained at this point. Its how I was taught to type and man do I want to hit that space bar twice quickly after each sentence. And if two spaces really bugs someone as ‘wrong’ then they have a problem.
Last night Sam and I hit up Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School. Its basically a bar with a DJ and a model. It cost ten bucks, you can draw with whatever you want (as long as its not messy) and for two and half hours you get to sketch and draw peculiar models. Last nights model was a contortionist named Schmoo. Its fun, but difficult to get used to. But if you want something different, and want to drink at a bar while drawing in a light laughing atmosphere, its for you. They’re all over the place, look them up.
