I have bagged spinach in my fridge! But I'm planning to sautee it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey msbelle, about The Office, I don't know that the "filming" is ever explained.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

In the original, they were being filmed by the BBC for a TV documentary. I don't think the US version has ever given any explanation.

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.

Yow! Hope you spinach eaters are okay.

Meanwhile, I'm glad I can't stand the stuff.

Kalshane, I think they're just trying to get you to quit. I can't think of another reason for them jerking you around like this.

The thought crossed my mind. The thing is, everyone on the help desk, barring the new manager and the new hire "golden boy" that became the personal support person for the company owner and his family (a job I don't begrudge him one bit. The owner can be rather difficult to deal with.) has a crappy schedule. The other choices were W-Sun, 9a to 6:30p; M-T, Th-Sat 5:30pm to 3am (at Corporate) or Swing Shift (which works everyone else's hours on their off-days.) Two of my co-workers picked the day shift and the swing shift, and I didn't feel like fighting for either of them, even though I have seniority. If the 5:30p to 3a shift had better off days or wasn't in Corp, I would have chosen it. The problem is really that the CIO wants 24/7/365 on-site coverage by people with technical expertise and we only have 4 people to do it with. (Since the manager and golden boy get the daytime M-F schedule by default.) No matter what, we all get shafted.

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

Yay for restarting ipods.

I'm going to take open toed shoes with me this week. Assuming I ever actually pack.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Another corrupt politician bites the dust. It almost gets my hopes up for November. Twice bitten, still hopeful.

I'm drowning in babies.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Anybody else watching Colbert? Because the bridge thing is one of the funniest thing, ever. But, then, I'm a sucker for running gags. Especially with the Oh My Gawd, that's actually the Hungarian Ambassador. And he's totally game!

Now we just have to wait a couple years and see how long they remember this gag.

I should be in bed, but I am watching Colbert for the first time in months. You are right, totally hilarious Steven is adorable.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

A bridge is totally better than an Emmy
