Yeah, I'm in today too. The only religious holiday we get off is Christmas.
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I saw that article, Tom. I am hoping the bubble pops soon enough for me to actually buy something someday, but not at the same time as the currency crashes, because you still have to have money to buy a house.
Yep, I am waiting on one disaster or another. That is how I plan my 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.
Is it wrong that I want the housing bubble to burst, just so this woman will suffer?
"It just seems like everyone is doing it," Laurie Romano, a 26-year-old self-described real estate investor, said with a giggle as she explained why she was attending an open house this month for the Nexus, a 56-unit building going up in Brooklyn's chic Dumbo neighborhood. She and her fiancé, a dentist, had already put down a deposit on a Manhattan condo earlier in the week and had come to look at another at the Nexus.
I think it's the giggle....

I cruised into work late this morning. Because it's a paid holiday, and I started earning overtime yesterday.
BigBoss is buying us lunch, which is nice, since I discovered yesterday that half of my coworkers weren't asked to come in today. Now lunch just needs to arrive before I decide that my desk looks like good eatin'.

On the bright side, at least her fiance will have steady work repairing all the broken teeth for people who get roughed up by loan sharks over bad real estate investments.

Ann, that's a ferret.
This quote
"South Florida," he said, "is working off of a totally new economic model than any of us have ever experienced in the past."
convinces me that the bubble is about to pop. I remember too many "this time it's different" arguments during the late '90s.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Most people are out today, right?
Sadly, greviously, tragically, no.
What Calli Said. I even doubt the possibility of an early release. I may be able to finagle ice cream.

Huh. On top of finding out yesterday that a co-worker is a playwright, I found out today that another co-worker's recently deceased brother was Tyrone Davis, R&B singer with quite a few gold records (Jesse Jackson spoke at his funeral).
