 I slept in this morning and it was so nice. Then I replied to a couple posts on the discussion for this week. I also posted an article that I found this weekend that talking about knowledge management, which was the topic for the discussion this week. When we were setting up our Zotero accounts this weekend we were supposed to look something up in a database just so we could practice adding articles to Zotero. So I looked up “something” and one of the first articles, if not the first one, was called “I Know Something You Don't Know” and it talked about tacit knowledge or knowledge that isn't written down and only exists in the minds of employees, which means it is lost when that employee leaves the company. It fit in nicely with the discussion this week and it was a complete accident.

I had lunch with my brother today. We went to Chipotle and I got a burrito bowl. I haven't had one of those in awhile and it was pretty good. I would like to get those more often but I get lettuce and that doesn't really keep well for round two. But maybe I'll consider it without the lettuce.

I spent the rest of the afternoon at the old house. I brought up a bunch of stuff from the basement and loaded my car to the bursting point. I think I've got pretty much all of my stuff out of the house except for one or two things. Progress. We're almost there.

For dinner we finished up the breakfast stuff from yesterday. Thankfully there are still plenty of blueberry muffins left.

Tonight I was supposed to go play video games with my brother but that ended up not happening. It started snowing sometime after dinner and there was an inch or two on the ground when I left the house. I applied the brakes pretty heavily at the end of the street just to see what I was dealing with and the anti-lock brakes when nuts. I also took the turn a little fast and slid a little but it wasn't too bad. Or maybe it was. Less than a mile from my house I went to turn onto another street and instead of turning all the way I only made it about a little bit before sliding, coming to an immediate stop when I hit the curb. That is when I texted my brother and told him we'd have to reschedule because I wasn't going to risk the rest of the drive, which involved a lot more difficult maneuvers than a simple turn. I backed away from the curb, turned around, and made it back to the house without incident. And the curb hit was full on tire, no bumper, so everything looks good, although I might want to get my alignment checked at some point.

I spent the rest of my night watching the 40^th anniversary of SNL and then a marathon of Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory. Such a ridiculous show but I enjoy it. I also played a bunch of Bejeweled 3. That game. It sucks you in. It's definitely one of those “just one more game” kind of games.

And now I'm going to go to bed because it is way too late to be up. Tomorrow I'm going to unload all the crap from my car. I avoided doing that tonight, which I don't regret, but I don't really look forward to it tomorrow. Oh well.
