And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

One of my co-workers recently recieved a red Swingline stapler as a gift. It is probably the most coveted object in our department.

DH's exit interview with Jonathan and Victoria is up.

If I only had a brain...

He still can't settle on one excuse. I was playing a part. I was screwed by the editors. Phil was rude to me.

What is even happening?

You know a contestant on the Amazing Race is a total ass, when someone like me, who does not watch the show, knows who he is .

I'm getting homicidal.

30 minutes in and I STILL haven't found my paystub online (the only way I can get it.) It's a new system. So far? As bad or worse than the old. TAKES FOREVER TO LOAD. Stupid idiot web design, multiple portals you have to go through to do ONE thing.... My company sucks.

Also, the grocery store was mobbed. Lines up every aisle to the meat at the back of the store. But they moved.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I came home from work early due to headache/cramps awfulness and remembered a couple of vicodin left from BF's root canal back in November. I took one and now for the first time in two days I am not in pain, plus I feel all....fuzzy. S'nice, although I wouldn't want to make it, y'know, a habit.

You know what? It just crashed my stupid ie (it won't work on anything else.) Fuck it. I don't need to know how much money is in my account do I?

Every year, they do a poll about what employees think of the site. Every year, people say they hate it, it is unwieldy, etc. Do they do anything? No.

Some of the crash& burns on other projects we work contracts for don't surprise me.

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.

Ack, Lee!

Penny Arcade has very Buffista-esque conversation in today's strip. [link]

Ick. Sounds very much about the new trouble ticket logging system we're being forced to move to. It's incredibly sluggish and counter-intuitive. The current system is a little buggy, but we've adapted to them and it's easy to use and lightning quick. But nope, we have to move to the new system. Nevermind the people that are demanding the move never used the old system and most-likely won't use the new one.

And with that I'm off to brave 40 miles of the snow of doom to go to my friend's birthday gathering. Whee.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Eww. Jonathan and Victoria are still very creepy.

I'm so sorry Lee and Robin have such crappy crappy pain.

It didn't? When I put the shoe in the trash can, it vanished.

Weird. It would only go in the surf shop for me.

I just ate a sandwich for lunch about thirty minutes ago, and all it did was make me really hungry. And I'm really feeling like making mashed potatoes, peas, and lemon chicken. Which would be really yummy. But will require some work.

Robin, glad it is helping. I had not bad pms this time but I think it is making up for it now. I've been perpetually annoyed the whole time, NOW I get the evil pms volcanozit on my neck that gives me a headache and a neckache and if my bosoms don't stop hurting and return to normal size, I'm lopping them off.

Crankycrankywhiiiiiiiiiine.

I think I shall pour myself a scotch and a bath.

I wonder how a bath of hot scotch would feel.
