This is just costing me a bit of comfort (though thankfully the weather has been mild) and a hell of a lot of disgust and annoyance. It's incompetence+rudeness. Not worth the courts, barring health & safety issues (which it lacks.)
I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Poor Emmett!
It will be a happy day when that kid grows into his head.
(Please Note: Had I a certain photo of myself and my fourteen first cousins on-line it would be clear that the above statement is purely empathetic on the part of my entire gene pool. Signed, split my chin, to the point of stitches, twice before I was out of first grade)

If I only had a brain...
This is going to be interesting. King Fahd is probably dying. He has been irrelevant to the government since 1995, when he suffered a stroke.
His designated heir, his half-brother Crown Prince Abdullah, has been running the country, but other members of the royal family were hoping the half-brother would die before Fahd did, thus putting the succession up for grabs. Now Abdullah is going to have complete authority.

What a complete and total PITA, sara. Ugh. I haven't had great building management, but at least I haven't needed much. The guy here was good when the water started flowing from my bathroom light fixture, I have to say.
In my imaginary life where I'd have kids, I would want my grandkids to call me Big Momma. It would go with the wigs and all.
I love this image SO MUCH.
It is a lovely day, and I totally went out in it! YAY.

Ouch. Poor Emmett's nose.
I just cleaned out three boxes worth of paperwork from around (and under and on top of) my desk and I found a little stocking stuffer that someone gave me for Christmas full of little sample sizes of Crabtree & Evelyn hand lotions and oils. Score!

Curse you, wee Perez... now I have this weird mini-skirted Emmett/Marsha Brady amalgam in my head going (All together now!) OH MY NOSE!

Yeah. We are getting kicked out of the building in about 20 minutes!! Good times. Good times. Just a taste of the summer when the campus will be officially closed on Fridays and I can "work from home."

At my U. job, the office is closed on summer Fridays, too, but your options are: work 4 ten-hour days or take vacation days. I thought "summer hours" were for free time off!

That is outrageous. And not in the good, Jem and the Holograms kind of way.
Why can't people just pay us for all the foamy goodness we bring into the world?

Luckily, I don't work Fridays anyway, but I'm annoyed on behalf of my coworkers. Especially the salaried ones! You don't think they work enough extra time during the school year???
