Hey, Tom. 1) Thanks for calling the other day. I really appreciated it. You rock. 2) I'm sorry therapy's so hard for you right now. You can come lean on me, if you need. 3) Enjoy the quiet.
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
If he got fired for major incompetence, he won't get unemployment, will he?
In New York, he probably will.
Did that guy just have some weird psychology going on?
The guy had some serious anger issues going on right below the surface.

This seems to happen to me whenever I'm at work! It's kind of like the discussion in Minearverse about X-Files writers...
It finally stopped snowing. Now I won't be able to reply, "Anthrax," when a coworker jokingly nods at the sky and says, "What do you think that is?"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In New York, he probably will.
Really? Huh.

shrift, your anger is righteous. This guy's anger was creepy, and not specifically work related.
So. Just out of a meeting Re: this guy getting fired.
Next up, at 11:00, my performance review.

I can't wait till there's a Sci-Fi channel movie about giant killer Don Sphynxes.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Strega, will you write me a note for work? I just don't wanna go.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I can't wait till there's a Sci-Fi channel movie about giant killer Don Sphynxes.
Hee.
It would probably involve scientists trying to genetically engineer the perfect pet, or a crazy scientist trying to genetically engineer a Don Sphynx/human hybrid.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Dang, this is the morning of slacker ennui, isn't it? Or are most b.org mornings like this and I'm just too busy to read it?
I have two sleeping children, a load of laundry in the washer, and a cup of coffee at my desk. Despite the stack of grading next to it, I'm counting this morning as a "win."
