It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Damn, JZ. I'll give you the company car if I could just have the water cooler with the dual spouts! No more microwaving water for tea. Oh, the very thought is sheer bliss.

My major perq at work is all the library books I can check out, with basically no fines ever.

There is occasionally free leftover food.

In Wrong news, a major donor is a Pepsi executive, so there is no Coke machine in the building, and no Coke served at any events in the building.

Coding and Sleeping

a water cooler in the department main office that does both cold and hot water!!!!!!

Filtered water, cold, lukewarm (why?), and hot, that's right, the trifecta. Plus, ice machine. Soda, flavored water, and fruit juice. There are no beverage complaints. There's not enough free T-shirts though, and where are the free jeans? I actually have to buy my own clothing.

I'm trying very hard not to post every five minutes about how bored I am.

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

What kind of air molecule was it?

Pretty sure it was a diatomic oxygen molecule....

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

Because our office is pretty isolated and they don't want people leaving every day for lunch, we get free lunch twice a week, plus free fruit, cereal, bagels, English muffins, and toast and 5 or 6 kinds of soda every day.

You could alternate that with checking your email.

Not that I do that or anything.

Now tagless for your comfort.

You know how there was a series of articles on the crazy catering that's done in the med/pharma industry? My brother could avoid buying any food, ever, and not starve. Quite the opposite, in fact. Hell, he brings the leftovers home and the whole family eats it.

A friend's boyfriend used to a be a pharmaceutical sales rep. He pretty much HAD to provide catered meals to the doctors' offices he visited, or he'd never get in to see the doctors--the best goodies got past the office staff. I helped him find local places that catered lunches to help him out when he first took the job.

It's LA. The girls don't sell door to door.

One of the cookie chairs in my area is going to call me.

CAN NOT wait until Em is old enough for Girl Scouts. I'm gonna be a leader and cookie chair and EVERYTHING! Just like my mother and her mother before her!
