Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

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.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

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...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

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

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.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

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.

Problem here is that the vent is not only in the ceiling, but behind the flourescent lights, so there is no access for me. I can't even get the engineers to close the vent or even redirect it, so I'm just screwed. I don't know how the woman who had this cube before me stood it for as long as she did!

What is even happening?

Yeah. If you can be 5'8" and wear a U.S. size 8, the BMI has to be a badge of honor, because please--overweight? I've never seen a woman 5'4" or over look even a little pudgey in a size 8.

I love how at this board, the "(Impression)" is a necessary clarification.

Hey, in a world where Miss USA is making out in clubs with Miss Teen USA, you never know!
