Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I get three weeks vacation, and I think we can carry over our annual amount (i.e., three weeks for me), so that shouldn't be a problem unless I stay for ten years. Which I won't.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I just made peanut butter cookies, but instead of doing the fork cross-hatch thing I mashed a miniature Reece's peanut butter cup into the center of each one.

We can go over 320, I think. I used to know this when I was more bitter about the differentials between contracts. Now I'm just resigned.

I don't know how much vacation we can accumulate. We can carry over 5 days to the next year, but we can put more in an accumulative account.
Okay, dig this. Those aren't scale models. Those are real, taken from helicopters. Makes me think further about the flaws when scale models are used to fake real size.
There's a technique for taking normal pictures to make them like scale models (or manipulating them in photoshop.) If I can find a link, I will.
Microbrew prices are about to go up like WHOA due to the hop shortage and malt/grain price increases- I fear that spending $10+ for a sixpack will soon be the norm. More than that, I fear that the insane ingredient price increases will put a lot of small breweries out of business.
Our microbrew six packs is already there, thanks to all our taxes.

You better get pregnant ASAP, Strega.
...And suddenly I feel reconciled to letting all that sick leave go unused.

Well, you really don't want to get hit by a bus or anything!

I got my Xmas tree tonight. It's dry as a bone, but it was only $30 delivered for a 7 foot tree, so I don't care if it's bald by new year's.

GA is on right now on my ABC affiliate. It's the ambulance crash in the first 10 minutes one. Is that new or a repeat from last week?
