I skipped April Fools Day for the first time in many years.
Sorry, I was sick and so was the cat. Maybe I'll observe it some other time, when you are not expecting me to turn into a Homestuck/Witches of Karres crossover character.
Anyway, I'm trying to make it a rule that I have to stand at the counter while hecking around on the internet/playing games now, in hopes that this will keep me from getting groggy. My feet start hurting, and I am too cheap to get one of those mats, so I prepared a small sampler of objects to stand on and tested them one-by-one: a couple different doormats and towels, a fleece blankie, my shoes and slippers.
The thing that turned out to be most comfortable is a pair of $5 pseudo-crocs slippers I lost the fuzzy lining to; they're a little softer than normal crocs, and have smooth insoles, so they're basically perfect for this purpose. I am pleased with the performance of my ugly utilitarian shoes.
