Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My nephew loves the books I sent for his birthday, especially Knufflebunny. When i was talking to my SIL a minute ago, I heard him in the background yelling, "mummy! read. book."

That was pretty damn happy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

tell me something nice or happy. please.

I saw ex-coworker at lunch and he had a succesful hearing about the status of the two boys he mentors/Big Brothers. He was assigned a legal status as their educational advocate, and he's getting them re-assigned from their neglectful, inadequate foster home.

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

It's not raining here.

We had Indian food at lunch.

I have a pony and a mini robot on my computer monitor.

Coding and Sleeping

That sounds like a complete and utter mess, Gud.

I didn't even tell you about the backup system. Taking a portable tape drive to each PC. I remember having to write up the backup program for the disaster recovery plan while thinking it was amazingly stupid.

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

We're trying to break people of that habit

Thankfully they're not even slightly trying now. The help desk itself routes tickets to random places--I have to check to see if the people I know will do the work (and call other departments as required) have received the ticket, and if it made any sense when they got it.

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

tell me something nice or happy. please.

I'm wearing fluffy crinolines at work, AIFG.

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.

Wow.

Oh, that's always fun. We had a guy who worked our help desk overnights who was completely clueless, forgot to log tickets, routed them to the wrong people and/or made them completely unintelligible. He also occaisionally left off the name of the person the ticket was being logged for, so we couldn't even contact them and find out what they actually wanted. He was very much a George.

He's gone now. Though it took them over 10 years to do it.

I don't actually have any happy thoughts right now. I'm sure they'll be happier when I get to my prophylactic medication. In two hours.

My weekend should be good, though. If I survive it.
