Kickboxing today! (or, well, last night). Trainer must have noticed that I had something on my mind, because he made me finish the session with 80 consecutive right-side roundhouse kicks followed by 80 consecutive left-side roundhouse kicks.

He actually tried to make me do a hundred each, but I was so visibly faltering by the end of the 80th, that he took pity on me.

So tired, I fell asleep almost as soon as I got home, so I missed doing the stuff I planned to this evening. Oops.

Facebook was initially well-behaved in asking me to transition my privacy settings -- the first time I got the pop-up, I said "later" because I was only popping in to look at something specific. The next time I opened up FB, I didn't get the popup; I was pleased that they weren't being overly naggy about transitioning. At some point, I hopped over to my profile and made sure my privacy settings were being respected and saved my changes.

Earlier today, I got a pop-up asking me to check / transition my privacy settings. I was surprised, but figured "hah, bad programming. They didn't remove the flag when I made my changes manually. OH WELL (but at least they're kind enough not to make assumptions)". I decide to go through the transition process this time, opened it up, and UGH all the radio buttons are set to the settings Facebook wants me to use.

But at least selecting my old settings is easy enough; just need to select the other radio button, which I do for everything. I hit save... Facebook tells me there's an error. Grarr. I hit back and enter, and it only then registers that when I hit back, FB filled it in with the settings they wanted instead of the ones I'd chosen. Argh!

If I didn't need Facebook for work, I would delete it right now. As it is, I'm going through all my settings and locking them down to the most private settings available. On the plus side, this is more private than I would have had them otherwise, because I've just discovered out that if you choose "Customize" from the dropdown, that lets you lock data to only yourself instead of friends/friends of friends.

(I've also just discovered that you cannot hide your gender from being shown, which makes me D: D: D:)

Eyeing some Psych fic over at [personal profile] trascendenza's journal. Trying to decide whether I should read them when I'm in a better mood so that I'm happy going in, or now to improve my mood, so that I'm happy going out.

Hmmmm.

Maybe code first, and then wait until the weekend or something.

ETA: Mmm, reviewing and committing is soothing to my soul :)
