Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am now at work. Yay? The thing is, I just spent what felt like hours yesterday with my boss going off on Problem Child Co-Worker, who asked for today off, boss said she could take it only if her work was done (an assignment which the rest of us got done two weeks ago), and she took yesterday and today off sick anyway. So I figure it's really in my best interest to come in every day.

But I'm so sleepy! I cannot wait for my long weekend of sleeping.

Allyson, just look for the big milk bottle and you'll be A-OK. Shit, I don't even know if the big milk bottle is still there! That's weird.

It was there less than a year ago, so I'm guessing it still is.

The roads to get there may not be the same as they used to (the roads in Boston are still imitating the stairs at Hogwarts, albeit not as much as few years ago), but I think the milk bottle is eternal.

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

I am at my desk watching the end of my VM ep on my iPod. Fewer people in today than yesterday.

The best thing about today so far - I got the yummy coffee by work for the first time in over a month.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This morning on my way to work, I noticed one of the coffee carts has a sign advertising "SUBURP COFFEE." That was supposed to be "superb," right? That was all I could come up with.

Because books.

Unless it's really Fizzy Lifting Coffee.

I read it first as SUBURB.

Have fun, Allyson!

I think my new lease is wrong. Hqave to check original notice. Which I don't have with me. Bah.

People keep coming and going in my office and chatting LOUDLY about VERY STUPID THINGS, and I just want to kill them all.

It would be in their best interest to let me leave early today for the holidays, and for to have nappy times.
