This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Oh, no need to apologize—I was the one who made the unfunny joke.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I did an Actual Task today, and sent an email about another one, which is really more than I've done all week here, so I feel all accomplished and shit.

Oh thank DOG -- the bigger boss was just like, "why are you still here?" So I'm out.

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

LOVE IT. Except, probably replacing it 1-1 would be too gingery for most people. Unless you get the dollar store crystallized ginger.

OK, good tip. I guess I should make a sample cake first to see how it tastes.

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

There are only 4 people here today, and none of us is the boss. Fortunately, that means plenty of leftover bagels so I don't have to buy lunch!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It looks like only one person in our department who outranks me is here today.

Hmmm.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Lucky Jesse!

My boss is gone. My boss' boss is gone. There are only 7 people here (that I know of) out of an office of about 35. Unfortunately, my job is answering the phones so it's not like I can slink out early LIKE EVERY OTHER PERSON WHO WORKS HERE DOES.

Goddammit.

I need to get into another department or another job.

Good vibes to them's what needs 'em. I hope I get over my balkiness because as long as I'm here, I ought to use the slow time to get to projects I never have time to do. Like cleaning my desk and making proposals.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I just asked the VP in charge if we were working a full day and she admitted that she did not know what protocol is. I told her it was to let us out ASAP. we'll see.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Nutmeat. I believe I'm going to appropriate that as an insult. "No, no! The other drawer, you nutmeat!" "What a nutmeat." "Suck my nutmeat." "Back off or I will kick you in the nutmeat!"

**LOVE.** I feel the need to use "nutmeat" as an insult, as well. Maybe we can start a trend.

ION, this cold -- aka The Cold I Got For Christmas Because Santa Is A Right Bastard -- can just leave any time now. I feel like ass.
