Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

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

I knew I should have gone home before the stupid mistakes caught me.

too late now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't know about a Hay Whirlpool, but a beer bath does sound pleasant.

Squids take care of that power strip blocking problem nicely, Sheryl.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, Pete! I've kinda drifted out of buying comics again (when I realised the pounds of paper I was accumulating that I'd never read more than once), but Martha's definitely worth going back for.

I have a chair, and for that I'm grateful. I'm mostly excited about the desk accessories arriving. Then I can pretend to be organised.

Today for lunch I had the best sandwich I've eaten in the last 7 years at Automatic Slim's Tonga Club. It was a Caribbean barbecued shrimp BLT with avocado on grilled herb bread, approximately the size of my torso, recommended to me by this very cute and friendly waiter. For several reasons, I need to eat lunch there more often.

The rest of my day was pretty much picking up comics, dropping off mail, and walking my co-worker through the process to burn a DVD with all the files missing from the DVD I burned for a design firm last week. Not sure what happened, but half of what I supposedly wrote to disk didn't actually make it there.

I'm saddened that it's cloudy and thus no fun to go take advantage of the YMCA outdoor pool like I did yesterday afternoon, but at least that gives me a chance to watch SGA commentaries on DVD

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I knew I should have gone home before the stupid mistakes caught me.

too late now.

Sorry.

I want a new desk chair! I should ask for one. I've also decided that I'm never taking my current computer any where again. If they want me to travel with it, I'm demanding a new one.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Hee. Matt took a picture of his waiter.

My very cute waiter, I hasten to point out. I also took a clearer picure of the funky ceiling lights.

That picture of the waiter looks Lee Pacish. Can I have him?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ack! I don't usually post about terrifying articles, but I have a visceral reaction to torture and to the idea that my country tortures its prisoners. Turns out another torture center has been uncovered.

Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, now Bagram. It makes me angry. I'm just sharing so that others know about it too.

Sorry.

S'alright. Not your fault the person I was emailing had two first names, instead of a first name and a last name, like most folks, or that I called him by the second first name.

I stole an Aero chair when I first started here, even though people in my wing weren't supposed to have them at the time, and I dragged it with me whenever I changed offices.
