Okay, e-mailed in working from home. Now I just have to make sure I'm on top of it for the 9am meeting. Whose stupid idea was...oh, right.
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

OK, so I get into work and all the database lookups that worked yesterday are not working. Buh?
I'm going to go get me a donut and try again in a few. Donuts fix db problems, right?

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

You have to run this:
INSERT Donut INTO database_thingie
WHERE Sucky(lookups) = True;

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
INSERT Donut INTO database_thingie

INSERT Donut INTO database_programmer

Or better still:
INSERT Donut INTO database_programmer
WHERE Filling = Nummy;

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Good morning, all. Theo (and Emily) can attest that I have new hair! Or, same hair, trimmed back to where it ought to be. It's a little bit bombshellish, a little bit unruly. And the nice part is, those tiny shaved hairs at my nape.
I love having short hair. Don't love getting off my duff and getting it cut regularly, but love the results.

I celebrate the day!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Power outage on train, have to walk mile to work on hottest day of the year. Blech.

In other news, when did "middle class" start meaning that you were worth $1 million dollars.
I mean, I knew I was fooling myself that I was middle class making 28,000 a year working two jobs, but a million! I at least thought I could put in a claim to "lower middle class"
From a silly article about the curse of The Devil Wears Prada referenced here:
Higher gasoline prices and interest rates -- which raise the cost of credit-card debt -- may be deterring consumers across all income groups, analysts said, but it's the middle class and the "nearly rich" -- those worth between $1 million and $5 million -- who are cutting back on luxury goods and services. "Instead of buying the $25,000 watch, they're buying the $10,000 watch," said Milton Pedraza, CEO of The Luxury Institute.
