Jesse! I just realized I've been doing work for your school all week.
'Get It Done'
Natter .38 Special
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.
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.
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.

The whole U.? Can you call my boss and tell him to EAT IT?? That would rock.
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.
An excellent column from the NY Times about New Orleans after Katrina.
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.
Suddenly there's a zombie shuffling around in my brain saying, "Naaaaaaaaaaaaap."
I'm taking an ice cream break. I suggest others do the same.This sounds like an excellent idea!
I sent the skeeeery email.
To date, we have spent 24 (not sure why I was being coy with this number when I left the rest in) hours working on the Web site for [you]. In the initial estimate, we anticipated spending 4–8 hours on the project.
If we are going to talk tomorrow about changing the design again, we will need to add a Change Order to the job.
I am anticipating that we will require an additional .5 hour of meeting time and an additional 1.5 hours of production time and have prepared a Change Order (see attached) to this effect.
I think I have earned ice cream.
