I'm doing 32 things
With the recent release of Chrome with V8 and the upcoming release of Firefox 3.1 with Tracemonkey, learning Prototype/Scriptaculous, Dojo, Rico, MochiKit, and/or whatever else has become even more important. The revolution is nigh, and I’m excited.

I work outside in Texas, so I usually get closer to two gallons per day. They tell me I’m still dehydrated (because I usually only pee once from 8-5), but I usually feel all right. I sweat a lot more than most of my co-workers.
I got some black ‘SWAT’ combat boots from a military surplus store for work. They were impressively comfortable, but the soles got holes from cedar after 3-4 months. I still wear them from time to time, as they’re much more comfortable than my new work boots. Just, you know, they have a hole in the bottom.
