'The Girl in Question'
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.
Which was mobbed. 30+ minutes, trying not to kill the woman with probably 50+ packages with my glare
Every body should die when I stare at them
This isn't happening as you can see
I don't know just who to blame for lacking this ability!
But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as it can be!
All I want for Christmas
is a basilisk,
my own basilisk,
see my basilisk!...
Hah!
I wasn't really all that cranky about it . More annoyed I hadn't gotten there 5 minutes earlier and gotten ahead of her. Though other people were a bit tetchy. When a new window opened up and the next-in-line didn't notice, you'd think her hair was aflame the way the whole line brought it to her attention!
War on Terror, the board game.
It seems in bad taste, but I have to sort of admire the sheer cynicism.
There was music from A Charlie Brown Christmas playing at my post office. Which was mobbed.
The PO right across from work was mobbed, but the A(utomated) P(ostal) C(enter) lines were blessedly short. I love those machines. I also love my mother for requesting that her package get to her last week, which allowed me to avoid the huge freakin' lines and just drop off the package for my Secret Santee today.

I second this! APC rocks my world. Except they shut down for maintenance at midnight which makes the whole finishing up and shipping in the dead of the night thing tricky.
Hey Kathy, we have similiar problem here with the a/c. We've taken blackwrap (thick aluminum foil that is black in color) and covered like 3/4 of the vent, and had the opening pointing AWAY from the desk. Just not having the cold air blowing on ya helps a TON! Grab some foil from home, and go to town on it. Nothing worse than frostbite INSIDE. gets the keyboard all kinda messy. ick.
Timelies all!
Happy Anniversary Burrell and Mr. Burrell!
The Paul & Storm/Jonathan Coulton show was lots of fun, but ran a little later than expected. I'm, not surprisingly, a bit tired today...
This storm sucked.
Seriously! I'm glad you all have power back. No power in winter = the suck.
We had our office party this afternoon, and it was quite pleasant. Although there was almost a little scuffle when my boss tried to take my seat (my purse was on it, I was elsewhere), and no one else at the table wanted her to sit there! Anyway, I am psyched because I did not go back to the office after. In your FACE, um, me! Because I do have kind of a shit load of work to do by Thursday. Whatev.
Light day today...
Firstly, happy anniversary to the Burrells!
::makes note to go to UnAmerican and toast Am Chau::
Today marks a personal milestone. Well, no. It marks the realisation that I had a personal milestone reached in the past couple weeks.
I am overweight. Just about. BMI chart says that at 5'8, 164 is overweight. And I've certainly been 164 in the past couple weeks, although today's weigh in was closer to 162.
Honestly, I've been a bit jealous of those guys at krav whose musculature put them into the overweight BMI category, when they were neither fat nor sufferring ill effects from their 'excess' poundage.
I never thought I'd make it past that stupid line. But here I am. And a size 8 to boot! So unlike the guys I'm thinking of, I'm still kinda small. Which just makes the line look dumber.
I will hoist a protein shake to toast slavish adherents to that height/weight table tonight. And then I'll hoist a kettlebell or two.
