Now tagless for your comfort.

And now is the time on Sprockets when we laugh uproariously at the people submitting last-minute emergency requests, who then send me additional e-mails requesting that I notify other people when the work is done, because they're leaving the office early.

shrift, I think your doctor can just do away with bloodwork. He can diagnose your high blood pressure simply by spending a day on the job with you.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I agree with Cashmere.

That sucks msbelle.

In theory, I like the idea of chicken pot pie, but whenever I have one I end up not liking it. Maybe I have just been eating the wrong ones.

I hope you find new internets to explore and conquer, bon bon. Don't forget to bring a flag. t random Eddie Izzard reference.

I love chicken pot pie. In fact, during one particularly stressful month last summer I ate chicken pot pie and half a pint of Ben and Jerry's for dinner ~5 nights a week. Not a great weight loss technique, but smothering the stress under yummy fat and carbs was really effective.

Always Anti-fascist!

Totally watching the Leary Xmas thing.(Maybe I'll feel festive by comparison.) Would still date Vince or Jon, but they *are* looking rough these days. Ruby should be OK, Allyson.

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

Frequently, and today was no exception, I am fooled by chicken pot pie. I think it will be just like regular pie, because the crust is oh-so- delicious looking. And I am rather disappointed by actually eating a gooey mass of overheated peas and repurposed chicken and can't finish it.

Pretty much, yeah.

They've got me for three more hours, and then I am gone until Monday, and there's nothing they can do about it! Mwahahaha!

I never liked chicken pot pie - 'til I made one myself -- way better than anything I ever bought. and one year at my BIL's house in VT - shortly after tday dinner, we made turkey pot pie.mmm..... and then the sweet potatos became pie...mmm. It was fun teaching men how to kitchen cabinet cook.

I think this is it for me, too. They could and should be good, but in reality, they aren't.
