I have gotten five telemarketing calls today, which I had to answer because I wasn't sure if it was school calling or not. If I get one more someone is going to die. Can you tell my headache never fully went away today.
Shh! I kinda wanna hear me talking right now!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
No, Perkins, no strain!
No strain. I was mostly being facetious/poking fun at myself.
I'll think about it tonight, and let you know.

Yay for Meara being released from jury hell!
You used to be able to get out of it fairly easily - turn up saying "I love cops! Cops always tell the truth! I've been a victim of crime!"
I said all those things before I was chosen for the only jury I was ever on. Apparently the prosecution had a slot for a cop-loving crime victim. Also, the defense was busy trying to rule out anyone who had been a victim of domestic violence or who was related to a victim, which turned out to be a depressingly large percentage of the jury pool. It was indeed a wrenching domestic violence case, but at least it only took four days.

I did this last week; I am hoping it just hasn't kicked in yet.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
We have a telezapper. It makes an obnoxious noise, and foils autodialers and most computer spiels. There's one or two, though, that get through. They're designed for message machines, and they just power right on through the whole presentation. I have to sprint for the phone now, pick up and hang up to avoid recording two minutes of 'buy our stuff'.
Deena makes wonderful art. Anybody who hasn't, take a look at my LJ page. Tis to die for gorgeous. Also? Icons to match. I was going for the PotCII theme, but she deftly presented me with Craftsman wallpaper friezes and old maps, instead. Pretty!

I, too, can vouch for Deena's art. I need to get a paid LJ so I can show off more of it, but I'm too dang cheap.

Fucking work. Why for the love of all things holy would you develop a process, train all of your employees on said process, roll it out to teams that you support, and then immediately not follow it???? Hates... Why do I always end up on the support end of this shit? Why? Why???? It's tempting to just start sucking, you know? Plenty of people who suck manage to keep being promoted and all that crap. I wanna learn to be one of them. Grrr
