Earlier this week I removed Google News from the "News" pull-down on my Safari bookmarks bar. I don't know how long it took for me to notice that visiting that page only made me angry, but I finally did, and so passes the last non-blog-or-bloglike news source I'm willing to visit when bored.
Spent all afternoon into the evening trying to grok localization techniques in Visual C# Express. All the documentation I could find is apparently for the full version of Visual Studio, which includes a command-line program for creating resource files that I apparently lack. Assuming that Microsoft doesn't feel that internationalization is a luxury reserved for people willing to buy the full IDE, I gave up and posted a plea on the MSDN forums. It's crap like this that makes me blargh at non-free development software.
Before that I dropped over $30 at Bob Slate's, and now all my loose paperwork is filed away in new folders, with new staples punched into them as appropriate. That feels good.
