Now tagless for your comfort.

I think this is underestimating how much I could slack back when I was working.

What is even happening?

Back when I was working, I had to slack without internet access.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I would have to say that if I have a fetish it is for guys over 6'4". Freakishly tall guys are yum.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I unwittingly facilitated a fling between a chief basketball player, and a former co-worker, during a summer job.

I really don't know how people managed to look busy before the internet.

The key is to always have a pencil in your hand and some kind of list that needs checking off when you're staring into space daydreaming.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Was that slacking number self-reported?

I really don't know how people managed to look busy before the internet.

They didn't! I remember visiting my father's office as a kid, and I swear to god, people there spent half the day chatting to each other and the other half on the phone. And they took long lunches. It was bizarre. I, otoh, right now appear to be working my ass off.

ION, I have to apologize. I just realized something. Since all I really want in a guy is 6'2"-6'4", I can actually leave the taller ones for you nutjobs.

I had one or two temp jobs where they wouldn't give me internet access. (Because...why would I need to access the network? I was just there to answer the phones!) I ended up reading a LOT of magazines.
