I'm not sure depriving shrift of her much-needed caffeine is a wise strategic move on the part of something that exists within a computer network.

Our free lunch is always chinese because it is cheaper than sandwiches. Once somebody complained, and then we got no free lunch.

Our is always pizza and/or deli sandwiches. I'm pretty sure the company has a deal with these two nearby places (one a pizza/sub type shop and the other a deli) that have the same ownership, since the pizza and/or sandwiches are always from them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My lunch is going to involve some place with a drive-through window, because there's nothing in the house and I want to keep contact with people to a minimum.

Dear Asshole Customer at Walgreens,

When trying to determine who's next in line, please give a person more than two seconds to get around a giant leaking display case in front of the registers before you spazz out, huff to the back of the line of one, and snap, "Fine, LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU MAKE UP YOUR MINDS."

To which I responded with a stoner-lack-of-caffeine drawl, "Dude, way to be rude and impatient. Sorry for that thirty seconds of your life that you'll never get back."

Seriously, UNCLENCH,
shrift

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

Well, until the computers can distract her with crafty porn, how else will they handicap her?

I'm getting into a habit of sending emails (both work and non) too early in the morning. I review them later and my phrasing is odd.

Dear shrift,

I would like to hire you to accompany me everywhere I go. Feel free to drink on the job when you like. There's lots of bacon in it for you, and free internet access.

Love,
An Adoring Fan

Really good fried fish last night. Chips, not so much, but the fish was perfect

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Probably my birthday meal. A little filet mignon with gnocchi and gorgonzola sauce and a petit lobster tail. The lobster was fine, but the filet mignon was fabulous, and cooked perfectly.
