Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This particular coworker is a tricky one -- sometimes bitchy, sometimes just deadpan. So hard to know!

Allyson, I have the cure for your Adrien Brody obsession if you want it.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Do tell, Jesse.

I would default to a pleasant reply, but feel bitterly resentful inside, because sometimes I can't help being passive-aggressive.

Aaaaand now I smell smoke.

One wrote back "Isn't that nice." Bitchy? Or no?

sounds a little bitchy, but I say give the benefit of the doubt.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Aaaaand now I smell smoke.

You're making me twitchy. At least you're close to the door, right?

I'm right next to the door and the emergency exits. It's a harsh smell, more like ozone, so I'm wondering if the leaking sprinklers (apparently it's leaking across several floors already!) have begun frying electrical equipment or some such.

Still snowing. Still not evacuating.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Still snowing.

I forgot to say that after all our snow last week? 72 outside right now.

ETA: Also forgot to say stay safe shrift!

I have gotten so little email today, that I'm convinced it's broken. I hate it when I have no email. Well, not spam, but I have no gossip email, or anyone calling me an asshat for some imagined transgression.

I think the world might be ending.

I used to like Adrien Brody until there was this profile of him several years ago (in the Times? I forget), where he was such a poser ass I couldn't stand it. The capper was him being on the phone with P. Diddy, because he was going to go over there and "lay down some tracks" or some shit. Due to being a hip-hop artist and all.
