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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It's usually available on thislife.org about a week after broadcast.

Oh, I meant the tv show. I'm already subscribed to the podcast.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm not sure if it is possible that any one ever had less interest in doing their jobs than I have right now. Ugh.

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

I'm not sure if it is possible that any one ever had less interest in doing their jobs than I have right now. Ugh.

I feel compelled to challenge that statement.

Oh, I don't know about that. I'm pretty disinterested in doing any editing or talking to any of my cow-orkers today.

Seriously? Do you have zero interest? Or LESS than zero interest?

Well, I'm reading fic...

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I feel compelled to challenge that statement.

I would, too. But that sounds like a job to me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Has anyone noticed that shrift hasn't been around today? I'm kind of afraid she's actually having to work. Or might be at the DMV. Or that her workplace has lost all internet access.

Do you have zero interest? Or LESS than zero interest?

I feel physics-ly obligated to point out that even less than zero is still a number, with a size and everything. Yes, it's not in the direction considered usual, or boss-ly-desired, but still, it's there.

In physics you can say that the smallest amount of energy (actually, energy times time, so it even takes into acount the procrastination!) you can talk about is measured by Planck's constant. You can't have less than that. Even if your job is really really boring. Even if you're posting about it. It's in the laws of the universe. The universe forces us to have some sort of minimal interest, no matter what we want. There should be something there about free will, though, right?

Either that, or I should really be asleep. Hmm.

I'm making up non-work stuff to do, so I don't actually fall asleep here at my desk. Did I stay up late last night? No I did not.
