I had a turkey sandwich, but really wanted nachos.
I had nachos. They were delicious.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I find it weird that when I go looking for The Economist magazine, I get this: [link] (FTR I did find it at economist.com.)
I was inspired by someone here (Jesse?) who defended the idea of 12 days of Christmas, and am attempting it with Bob this year. One gift a day for twelve days. Since neither of us ever has the other's gift before Christmas, now I have a good two weeks to buy stuff. One gift is going to be a subscription to the magazine. Yesterday he got a sweater. Today he'll get a calendar. It's pretty much Chrismakkuh, isn't it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Daaamn youuu!!! ::shakes fist::
I am all about the 12 days of Christmas, especially this year. I do not believe that anything I am giving is late, as people will have it before Epiphany.

I'm halfway through the stack. I need a beer.
This sounds like a work-related expense. You should be able to submit an expense sheet on it--or would that just get to cyclical?

I'm hungry. I don't know what I want for lunch. Damn. Suggestions?
I'm going to Briazz and getting Jambalaya right now. I recommend any later lunchers doing the same.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, just as I was about to leave for lunch, a client called - two employees were getting errors trying to enter their timesheets. So I went to lunch, came back, went into the system as the two employees and... everything worked.
So, I call client back and leave a message that I can't reproduce the problem. She calls me back saying they're not having the problem anymore - "Evidently, it fixed itself."
Moral of the story - Lunch is good.

I don't get to expense things, Calli! They'd have to unchain me from my desk first.
I have handed off my billing. I await many cranky phone calls from our billing dept. Now I have refreshed my work e-mail, which leads me to say: oy with the poodles, already.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Gah! Out of stock! I want those. Geek chic indeed.

Someone who sent a rampantly bitchy message to me earlier just wrote back all sweetness and light.
I'm choosing to hold a grudge.
It's making me really look forward to leaving them all in a lurch, which means I need to start job searching pronto.
And I just noticed my departing coworker left his little buddha. I'm putting him next to my penguin.

If I promise not to post about work anymore, will y'all come back to natter?
I could talk about cats!
