Shit's all sorts of different now.

My Saturday job provides lunch to the entire service department. EVERY WEEK people bitch about what we order. Drives. Me. Nuts. I want to just slap them around and tell them to STFU.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that take the orders and place it and get bitched at. Like I chose it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Only the best show ever.

Ooh, that does look good.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Unsurprisingly, there's some QI up on YouTube. [link]

I'm going to be so sad when I run out of QI.

I only have five or so episodes left. About the same amount of Jonathan Creek I have left.

I probably shouldn't watch more QI until I write one of those things I ought to be writing, anyway.

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

I've given up meat, bread, and booze for Lent.

When is Lent over?

Shit I didn't say: I come in at 10:00. 10:00. Not 9:00, and sure as hell not 8:25, when you called the first time. I've told you this before, my voice mail tells you the same thing, and it's on the fucking directory. If I'm not here, it doesn't matter how many times you call or email me to tell me it's a rush, because I'm not here.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Shit I need to say today:

Before, you told me that your direct can run her area however she likes - you won't interfere. Today, you get snippy with me because she told me to include her on any meetings you have with her directs. I got spoken to before when I was too much of a gatekeeper, and now I'm too flexible. I am confused, and you're making me feel like shit.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I love that we're all WTF? about the Freezing Fog Advisory. Wierdness.

All she wants is a diet Coke. Just one diet Coke. And they wouldn't give it to her.

Hee. I quoted that song a couple of days ago. I don't think anyone got it.
