I think I've been to Aberystwyth. But I certainly would have remembered the money thing.

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

shrift, can you at least turn off the water?
I did turn off the water a few hours ago. The problem is that plunging isn't taking care of whatever's clogging it, and I was hoping to avoid calling a plumber. Since the last one was slightly crazy.
But it looks like I'll have to call one anyway.

Is anyone reading of shrift's toilety travails, and thinking of the live-action Tick episode where he has an epic battle with one?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Well, I am now.

I mean, how long do you have to plunge a toilet before the bitch gives in?!

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
I've taken office supplies home, inadvertently or for work I'm doing at home. However, I've also brought office supplies in to work, freebies or items that I particularly want to use, so I honestly think that if it's not a wash, my employer ends out a little ahead.
It seems like every few years I see an article about how stolen pens and paper clips are the ruination of American business, but those studies never seem to take into account the whole picture. Often, there are hours of unpaid work, or situations like mine when you're conscientious overall but not so much that you don't use a pen or paperclip. I mean, if someone walked in off the street and asked for a sticky note or a paper clip, I'd give it to them too.

My roommate just got back, and we tried some crazy, last-ditch plunging. Then called a plumber. And now it looks like the mad, mad plunging may have fixed it.

That's how it works, shrift. The world is cruel.
Kat, I hunted through the archives, and the first mention of the PGJ I found was me, Sep 19, 2002 4:53:39 pm EDT #2182 of 10024 in Natter 1 here:
Stick with me girlie. I'll show you the brazen ways of the Pink Gingham Junta.
But it formed before then, I know it. Just can't find it.
