That dude in Atlanta is doomed, then.

I say we shoot him into space. There's room for his ego out there!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Allyson's neighbors expect a lot from her... I don't even know my neighbors names! And I like it like that!

I need some job~ma for my boss, who is in a conflict with Big!Boss right now. She is afraid it will come down to a "my way or the Highway moment", and so am I. And because of the trickle-down effect, if my boss leaves I will be looking for another job as soon as my six month probation as Administrative Assistant is up. Grrr.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oy vey, Allyson. I'm pretty sure that someone who needs "watching" would benefit from that watching being done by professionals.

Morphine 30mg of morphine. See what I mean?

I am so glad you completed that sentence!

I just got to a point where I'm not sure what to do next at work. I mean, I have to make up what comes next. It's been a long time since this has happened.

Happy birthday, Brenda!

Wait, so according to Trudy I'm not allowed to have a fishing cat OR the super-cool skull memento mori watch? I disagree with both of those rulings.

I did not click ita's link. I did not read the whitefont. See, I am the sensible one amongst you people. So obviously I can be trusted with a giant cat as a pet and an antique skull watch as an accessory. Obviously.

Okay. I've finished grading all the written tests, engineering drawings, and animations. All I have left is the architectural drawings and essays. Stamina-ma, please?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Oh, Allyson, so sorry. Is there some sort of social services advocate you could get involved?

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

Can you be trusted to not set buckets of water on fire?

My school uses a different grading scale than I'm used to, and it's giving me angst. Dammit, I want to give him an 80, but not a C!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I told her sister she needs to help her file for state disability, so at least she'd have medicaid. Then I backed away.

There's no way I can "watch" her sister. I can't.

The whole episode has made me even more grateful for my family and friends.
