No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

I'm done for the day. Out to score firewood and a fire extinguisher.

Just in case.

Merry Christmas to all Buffistadom. Thanks for being such a great part of my online life.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

For some reason, when I first read this, I thought you meant that the Buffistas were closed for the holiday. And I was very dissappointed.

OK, that it. Everybody out. Last person turn the lights out and lock up....

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm gonna leave early too. No client would call with stuff for me to do on Dec 23rd afternoon, right?

Probably not. Though I'm pretty much stuck for the rest of the day. One of the other techs is covering the help desk (well, actually I am at the moment while he goes to lunch) and it would unfair to him for the other tech and I to leave since he has to stay. The rest of our team either didn't come in or is already gone for the day, though. And there's a skeleton crew at our corporate office.

For some reason, when I first read this, I thought you meant that the Buffistas were closed for the holiday. And I was very dissappointed.

Yeah. That would be bad. Especially for those of us still stuck at work.

Heh. It's always good to plan ahead.

Okay, y'all can't close up when I have to be here for another four hours.

Okay, y'all can't close up when I have to be here for another four hours.

We're leaving at 3pm PST today. So I'll be here slightly longer than four hours.

I'm still working, just too busy to post.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Shrift -- I dreamt about you.

You were wearing a shirt that said "Hmm. If I'd known it was this easy, I'd have done it long ago."

Or maybe I dreamed about the shirt, and then you were wearing it. It's really all you did.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

That would be bad. Especially for those of us still stuck at work.

Yes it would. And for those of us stuck here tomorrow, as well. I may have to bring in a book or a computer game.

My poor Big!Boss. His wife's grandfather just died, so they have to make an unplanned trip to WI for the weekend. He's been waiting for the overnight arrivals because his wife's Christmas gift should have arrived via UPS today. It didn't. It went from San Diego to Louisville (this is apparently a normal route?) and is now stuck there due to the weather. This will not be a good weekend for him.
