'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

An hour and a half of coworker phone conference later, we've partitioned up the problems and made decisions-and-changes about enough of them that the databases should be theoretically usable on Monday morning.

They should so be glad I work for them. Like I said, this wasn't even a section I was in charge of.

information libertarian

people will be in my way, and screaming children with poop-filled diapers will break glasses with their high pitched screeches of displeasure.

OMG, is Allyson going shoe shopping in my house?????

Happy Borthday, Bil!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Y'all are making me think about the OC again, BAD.

I went to grocery store, got all of 5 items then went to dropoff things at two friends' places. I am worn out. Out of breath and I even had stops with eth errands. I am sooooo staying home tomorrow.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Happy Birthday, Bil!

Now tagless for your comfort.

OMG, is Allyson going shoe shopping in my house?????

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I have no shame—Ben McKenzie doing the Tyler Durden thing is enough to get me watching.
Holy numminess, Batman. I need to start watching again.

I already "watch" Smallville by skipping only to bits with Lex in it. Praise be the dvr for it lets me have the pretty and skip much of the stupid. Now on The OC as well.

Ben McKenzie doing the Tyler Durden thing ... I'll be in his bunk.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Speaking of the OC, my DVR is telling me it's on Wednesday this week. Is that the new day? That would help me.

Edit: The website tells me it's a "two night event." [link]

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

Jesse, insent a moment ago.

I have 2 and a half of the 5 tasks on my to do list done, but now my body is screaming for a nap, so I may listen to it.

Hooray naps!

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

Great. Can't find my wallet. I was so sure I had merely left it at home in an obvious place.

Now starts the manhunt.

Happy birthday, CaBil!
