Freak. Unless you are in msbelle's office.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My apartment is always very warm, but today it's unbearable. I figure it's because it's all the way up to freezing today. Oy.

in all sorts of Murphy's Law-iness, today my office heat is mysteriously not on. I am comfortable right now, but fear that by this afternoon I will be chilly. cannot win for losing.

Ah. I like having control over my thermostat. Of course, now that I'm paying my own gas, I may not like it quite as much.
Ah jeez, msbelle. Leave your coat on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In the apartment, I'm OK with unlimited heat, since I can just keep the windows open. And I don't pay for it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
In related tax commentary, I heart Turbo Tax so much that I have my return all ready to go-- took only 30 minutes for state and federal. But trying to avoid Jesse's predicament. I hate waiting for my refund! I'm looking at you CITIBANK and your missing 1099-INT!
I have a query for y'all. Bob sent me a link to a National Review article about why there are so many more males in the comedy business than females and it contained the following:
In my 15 years in the sitcom business, I have worked side-by-side with 30 different women writers. Ten of them have since gone on to be show-runners, the highest rank a TV writer can attain, short of David Kelley, who is show-runner-married-to-movie-star.
My recollection is that a show-runner is actually one step below the executive producer/creator (Angel's Minear to Whedon)-- and I kind of doubt Kelley does that much show running, given how many he cranks out. Is it true that this is the highest rank a TV writer can attain?

Now tagless for your comfort.
Did anyone else using Turbo Tax get the free federal filing? When I logged on to TT using my bookmark, I didn't get it. But buy using the link at irs.gov (after I had already entered my information) I got the federal filing free (and half-priced state filing). Saved me about $40 for both returns and I'm getting everything direct deposited.

I got out all my tax info last night to prepare it for my tax guy, but then I didn't do it. Tonight I must. betting on a big refund.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Technically, EP isn't a writing position, even though in practice television producers are overwhelmingly mostly writer-producers, and I've never heard of a show-runner who wasn't also a co-EP. The creator-EP probably gets paid more, but the showrunner has more day-to-day control.

That's why we use it.
