Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

This morning I remembered I scheduled the handyman to come in on Saturday, so I have to be here. I emailed management to say I would work a half-day today, and got an email back from my boss telling me I was "the best." Woo Hoo, out at noon AND I am the best.

one more hour and I am off for an exciting afternoon of dying my hair and watching Deadwood DVDs!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Someone just gave me a box of Girl Scout cookies for free. Life is good.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Dammit - once police cars get to where they're going, they don't need the sirens, right?

There's three cop cars sitting on the street about 20 feet from my office, and at least two of them still have their sirens on.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

That could be a bad sign, tommyrot -- as in, the cops are way too busy to go back to their cars and turn off the sirens....

At the risk of being an attention whore -- at least I always feel like that when I post a link -- pictures of my new glasses with me in them. (Very work safe rated, honest.)

Police have turned off their sirens and gone away. I heard some loud voices too, but I couldn't figure out what was going on. There was a large group (30-40) of teenagers on the sidewalk and the police made them disperse. (We're about 3 blocks away from a high school.)

eta: Those are nice glasses, Theo....

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

So, a good friend just won a fellowship at the "Museum of Jurassic Technology."

From what I hear, that's teh awesome.

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

I hate IVR. I don't want to chat with a computer that can't actually chat with me. I don't want to repeatedly say key words into the handset. But it does deflect from the "how do I get to a person?" issue, as I panic trying to get back to the keypad menu.

I hate doing that. Not really sure why, other than it feels lame....

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I am ita and tommyrot. I feel like a complete doof sitting there enunciating various words and/or numbers into the phone.
