Hmm. I appear to have rubbed salt in the collective wound!

Well, I have a long weekend, so I'll enjoy it with you!

Susan, I am nodding along with what everyone is saying, including totally getting what you're saying. Sometimes life is just, well...yeah.

So, um, can anyone explain to me how I can control myself in clothing stores, make-up stores, electronics stores, bookstores (sometimes), but I cannot control myself in an office supply store. It's absolutely insane! How many *different* kinds of post-its does one *really* need?!

MILLIONS!

ETA: There was a WHOLE aisle of just post-its in this store. I shit you not.

Well, there you go!

You know that they make Post-It White boards? And special "meeting post-its" that are giant?

In totally unrelated news, I came home and went to see Toto. He was on my bed, which is unusual (he's usually curled up in his bed). I opened the door, and I went over to give him a tummy rub. He lept off the bed and into my arms and started kissing my face. It was about the sweetest thing ever. It was almost like he knew I had a long weekend, and we were actually gonna hang out a bit.

No one tell him I'm planning on going out tonight.

I'm the same way in an office supply store, fwiw.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ok - that was a funny crosspost. I'm now imagining Susan running into Office Depot and licking the face of the printer cartridge guy,

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I love those post-it white boards but the $5 per sheet tempers that love slightly.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

But that's the thing. Everyone pays a lot to go here, and this is a first. We've never been asked to do this before. I honestly think that this is an admin's idea of an "efficient" solution.

It is efficient. It is much more efficient to piss off your employees than your customers. You better hope EVERYONE doesn't start asking for it...

(It sounds like a fairly isolated incident, actually, what with the schedule change and all.)

I doubt you'd get a public school to move a dozen or so exams. ch-ching
