Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

X product is in production?

I think it depends what X is. "in development"?

Both of those could work. X is a proposal, generally. Thanks!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'd pick "in development" for a proposal -- "in production" sounds like it's actually at the print shop as we speak. Or like you're trying to sound all fabu and Hollywood and imply that it's a movie.

I would like to be fabu!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, I would like to not have to work.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Ugh! It's snowing. Guess it's slightly better than "wintery mix" but still wrong like a thing that is wrong from wrongtopia. Also? Three days late to be an April Fool's joke. Stupid weather.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Ugh. I am still filled with the gronk and it's almost noon. Buffistas, we partied hard on behalf of Scola's 40th birthday.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

We technically get a vacation day for Good Friday, but can use it at our discretion as a floating holiday (and company tradition is to take it on one's birthday).

Today the caterer/deli that I normally get chicken & broccoli from had muffaletta sandwiches. Not bad, though it still pales in comparison to Central Grocery's.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Not bad, though it still pales in comparison to Central Grocery's.

Well, yeah. Napoleon House is the only one that is even in the same category.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

My department gets no holidays between New Years and Memorial Day, but we do get an extra day for July 4th--this year, it's July 5th, which is on a Thursday. I'm going to try and take July 6th off so I can get a five-day weekend, but that might have to change if I get accepted into graduate school, because I might have to go down to Champaign the following week. If so, I'll need to come in that Friday just to get crap done before going away for 10 days.

We got cloudy skies with occasional flurries, and no Scola here. Blech.
