I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Project must be sent to Portland at noon my time. Just got an e-mail from someone I've never heard of before, asking if we can't change the name of the system, because he finds the name we're using "kind of a mouthful."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I got 10/12 on the Dickens quiz, owing to missing a detail on Dickens's childhood and to never having read Oliver Twist. I'm not sure how I've managed to read Dombey and Son three or four times and OT never. Probably sheer laziness.

I am, probably foolishly, clinging to Typo's 3). Also despairing over 1) and 2).

And how will you respond after you stop laughing hysterically?

I don't know -- there are so many different felonies I could commit.

Tell him the hamsters who man the search & replace engines are on strike in solidarity with SEPTA.

What? It's an answer suited well to the question.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Dana, if it were me, I'd ignore it, since it doesn't come from anyone you're worked with before. I don't know if that's an option or not.

In honour of my Muslim co-worker, Happy Eid! it's the end of Ramadan and time to eat!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy Eid! There were many guys all dolled up on their way to the masjid in my neighborhood this morning.

My coworker brought in lovely baked treats and we're going out to lunch together. Yum!
