Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But, it's pretty hard to top trying to slice your own face off.

Eeeew. I didn't even mean that part -- I meant doing the surgery in the back of the nail salon all hopped up and whatnot.

Right, so. I can't leave the office for at least two hours and I am painfully bored.

Dance, natter, dance!

The wide universe is the ocean I travel, and the earth is my blue boat home

shrift, stop being me again.

Someone gave me a free root beer when the vending machine ran amok.

Someone else didn't bcc the recipients on an email directed at those being laid off, so now I know who they all are. Since it is officially unofficial for another couple of weeks, the list might get to be one longer.

Oof.

I've got 50 minutes here, but I just heard my boss typing, so potentiall there will be something for me to do? Who knows.

I did buy my bus ticket for the weekend, and they raised the price!! I think.

Of course, it was one of the laid-offing people who showed it to me all hush hush (and laughing) ,so it isn't like it has a broad audience. Still.

E-mail just received from the boss

Frig cleaning this Saturday

The refrigerators in the breakroom, that is, and he sent out a follow-up right after correcting the spelling, but, still . . .

What is even happening?

Hee. The misspelling was a more apt summary of my own attitude.

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

Damn, out marvelling over the new Bluebook while the thread turns over...
