Realizing I don’t blog about work much. Well, here’s a little taste. A game I play at work frequently called “Find the Caption in an Excel Document Full of HTML Coding.”

Really, though, I love how this job allows me to use my eye for detail. I’m a pro at finding words that aren’t bolded and should be. And I love the Web for its ever-changing qualities.

Some of my recent favorites from One Sentence. Enjoy.
Ainnir: So we ate home made bread by the Windmills and push started the car when it came time to leave.

Abby: For his birthday I gave him a Jenga set where every time you pulled out a block, it had a memory, inside joke, or quote on it.

pikachu: My crazy Polish dad came inside after digging a hole for a new tree in the backyard, holding the skull of “Speedy,” my cat who had died months before and said, “Look, it’s Speedy! Meow!”

n.: The moment my friend proudly said that he can “rock a shaved head” proved that he is much stronger than I am in dealing with his cancer.

Google Earth: When it took me 40 minutes to get from Colorado to Iowa while zoomed in on Google Maps using the arrow keys, I realized biking there wouldn’t be an option.

hollie: While I was walking home from work, it started raining heavily just as I was about to pass my favorite restaurant.

This brought tears to my eyes.

Because their happiness is contagious and they’re completely enjoying life.

And it’s been a long week for me.

I love flash mobs.

I will participate in a flash mob this summer.

New York is such a huge source of inspiration for creative minds across the world. And here’s an example, lived out in Legos.

[I love that I understand this guy's New York sort of wit and references.]

Featured on his New York Times blog, Abstract City, Christoph Niemann gives us I Lego N.Y.

Jean does lovely photos of dresses where they aren’t usually found. I find it so pleasant to see someone carrying out a series successfully over a long period of time.
