The Not Quite Daily Teaspoon Report - F101224

Well past time for another Teaspoon Report, I think, no? Today's My-What-A-Big-Teaspoon-You-Have Report is brought to you in honour of Sady the Indomitable, Queen of the Tiger Beatdown, and of a woman who's taught me an enormous amount in the time I've known her: Liss.

Leave comments here that describe an act of teaspooning you encountered or committed. They don't have to be big, world-shaking acts; by definition, a teaspoon is a small thing, but enough of them together can empty the ocean.

If you would like to discuss the teaspoons here reported, or even offer congratulations or your admiration to a fellow Shaker, we ask that you do so over here in the Discussion Thread for today's NQDTR.

Shaker bgk has been kind enough to get a Twitter-pated version out there for you young twittersnappers (and by the way, get off my lawn, you meddling kids! *shakes cane*). You can find the details about the Tweetspoons project right here. That runs all the time, as far as I'm aware (*grumblenewtechnologygrumble*), and we encourage you to let other people know that there's at least one tweetstream talking about just going out and doing good things for the human species.

Teaspoons up, let's hear 'em, Shakers!

ô,ôP

(For those wondering where I've been, I've simply been on a business trip to VeryBusyLand; dwindling fundage meant I had to take on day-work alongside my own business of translating, which has meant for the last few weeks - and a few more to come - I'm working long hours, and have few spoons left to spare when I get home. I don't have MS to live with, but my chronic pain condition has some similar obstacles, and that really is a brilliant essay on how it feels. Anyway, missing you all and can't wait to have some spare energy/time again to get back. I've got a queue of things-to-write-about that's getting as long as my cane.)
