Punishingly Intricate

Cindy, i love reading your Office flails.

Me too! And I wish I had something more substantial to add except ME TOO ME TOO! and

Angela totally made me cry all the way through last night starting with asking Oscar to join the party planning committee.

And what's going to happen with Karen? Is she going to stay and be in pain. Poor Karen. and, yet, yay!

Now tagless for your comfort.

flea, this is why I'm afraid to have a baby.

It's a little more complicated with a toddler in the mix. With two, one of them manages to wake up when the other one's asleep.

I can't imagine adding loud, idiot frat boys to the situation.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But I'm saying, just the one baby terrifies me, sleep-dep-wise, not to even mention all that craziness!

Yeah--it's hard but you learn to reset your scale of exhaustion.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Awesome octopus chandelier: [link]

The colors on the tentacles are so pretty. Only about $10,000.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

An entire department on my floor is in a meeting, and predictably, it's the department with the most customer foot traffic, and even more predictably, everyone's pissy that Nobody Told Them that entire department would be in a meeting for a whole hour today.

I want to make the elevator lobby run red and sticky with their blood.

What is even happening?

Other people thought the same thing about the muzak in The Office last night: >[link] Why does this make me so ridiculously happy? Thank you, bon bon.

tiggy, lisah, I flailed all over my lj (and Vonnie's), too.

About The Office...

Sepinwall mentions this, too, you're right. What is Karen going to do? How can she stay there? Does she have a lease? Can she get another job? Will she be able to make herself leave? Ooof. And yet YAY!

Angela had me crying too, by the way. And is it just me, or was her pony tail way loser than usual?

tiggy, I would normally be upset about my boss leaving me in an office with that loon, but I don't imagine I'd feel like Michael had all that much control, and Jim is technically management now, I think. It didn't ping me 'til you mentioned it though, so I hadn't thought about it.

There are some really good scenes in the Producer's cut, for people who didn't see it. I feel badly for fans outside of the U.S., because NBC won't let them watch it. I wondered if there was an anonymizer site they could use, so NBC would think they were coming to the website from inside the U.S.

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

I forgot to go to sleep last night, until about 1:30, for the second or third night in a row.

Hate it when I do that.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I have a question. Say someone's husband was an idiot and included the wife as a dependant. When the wife went to file, would it be better to put just "Married" or "Married but withold at higher single rate"?

ETA: I'm talking taxes for those of you who haven't already invaded my brain.
