Fuck. I almost accidentally said I could come in to work tomorrow.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Are the Amer dvd'd? And if so, are they worth checking out?
1. No
2. Only (in my estimation) the last (4th) one was properly funny.
I think Colin said he had them all. I may have to steal them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Jesse! I just realized I've been doing work for your school all week.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Fuck. I almost accidentally said I could come in to work tomorrow.Can you call a "do-over"???
Only (in my estimation) the last (4th) one was properly funnyGuess I didn't miss a lot. Thanks. If they appear, I will watch but I won't stalk them down.
I have to write an email to a client that I actually like but who is raping us blind with all of his changes. So I need to tell him that we are now past (time/money-wise) what we agreed on and additional changes are gonna cost... So I am posting here instead because less with the tied tongue.

Now I'm a bit depressed--my best friend here at work just announced that she's leaving. I'm happy for her because it's much better pay, and pretty much equivalent benefits, and it's not like she won't be close (her new job is literally next door), but working here won't be quite the same after she leaves.

Now tagless for your comfort.
OMG OMG OMG. New most un-favorite task at work. My boss just handed me an envelope full of cab receipts. I have to go through, guess what he would have tipped them, go through his calendar to see what they might have been for, and then fill out the reimbursement form.
I see Jesse works for my old boss.

This may have been posted last week, but I just heard about it. Apparently France offered "the use of its resources in the Caribbean sea, including 2 navy ships, 1 navy hospital, 8 planes, 600 tents, 1000 beds, and rescuers." Bush said no thanks, but we'll take cash.

I'm taking an ice cream break. I suggest others do the same. I will clearly be working until 8pm tonight. so much to do and a whole bank of our servers are down. which means no email, no access to FTP sites I need and no access to our in-house web sites which Ialso need. Bah.
