Sorry your day's not going well, vw.
But I'm very happy yours is going better, connie! Yay Idol tickets!
I just found out the heat index here is expected to hit 105F.
Kill. Me. Now. (Ideally with something involving snow.)
Hands! Hands in new places!

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
My college dining halls & snack shop only sold Pepsi products. As soon as I got a fridge for my dorm I bought Diet Coke and stocked it up.

How many people think vw sucks? Notes no show of hands. Sorry you are having a tough day. Feel better.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Calli, should I throw a snowball at you?
Not that there's any danger of snow up here....

I'm home. I'm gonna take it easy the rest of the day, I think. I think I'm just exhausted.

vw you do not suck. You've worked long hours lately and being exhausted is your right.
A Monday Made Worse: I had to cross a picket line to get to work today. We got all sorts of reminders that we are not allowed to stay out in sympathy with the strikers this time, probably because it is scheduled for three days (I've refused to cross the line for one day strikes).

Would ya, Fred? I'll give you a shiny nickle.

That would be a sucky way to start the work day. Sorry, Sparky.

Eep. Crossing picket lines is no good.
Take it easy, vw.
6 minipizzas may have the same caloric content as one of those french bread pizzas, but they are just not filling enough. I think I'll have to go find some (yes, you guessed it) Diet Coke to take up space in my stomach.
105 Heat Index? Damn. I wish you ice, Calli.

I am accessorized with a pin in support of the strikers and I have the flyer explaining the strike on my office door, but I remember standing on the picket line with my mother (a teacher) one year, so I feel tremendous guilt walking past. My union's contract specifically says we can't stay out, unfortunately. I'll probably join them at lunch time.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Sparky, I'm right there with you, squirming on the wrong side of the picket line for the same union.
I'm feeling rather grumpy about it, actually -- I'm theoretically a member of this union, have been paying my dues for ages, and about a year ago I somehow fell off all their mailing lists and hear nothing from them about anything, ever. (Yes, I'm culpable in that I have never called them to gripe about it, but I've been a little busy and harried over the last year. And they're still taking the money out of my monthly paycheck, so they know I exist and they know how to reach me.)
