Ann, that's a ferret.

Sorry, Stephanie, I can't help. I've always been HQ, so big bosses can swoop in just by getting on the elevator.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think I might want a potato.

Punishingly Intricate

What do I want for lunch?

Mashed potatoes?

I had some yesterday at the holiday lunch our work landlords threw. And the day before at dinner at french restaurant (underneath the most savory and delicious duck confit...suddenly I love duck!). Now my body thinks I should have them EVERY DAY!

Instead I will have leftover mac & cheese w/ spinach & raw carrots. and a clementine. and some yogurt.

ETA

I think I might want a potato.

BWAH!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A blogger described this as "probably the best short film about an evil floating head you will see this year." Which I think is true.

Timelies. I spent the weekend getting basically nothing accomplished I wanted to (apart from laundry) and was out sick yesterday feeling like death-warmed-over. I feel closer to fresh death today, so I made it in to work.

I could do that. But that would entail borrowing the company car and driving to downtown Evanston. Maybe I'll just be lazy and get a roast beef sandwich on croissant at the nearby lefty cafe.

Trust my rage

Is it ever a good thing when the really big boss flies in unexpectedly and unannounced?

We are now having a "meeting" with her in an hour. Coincidentally, crazy!boss is not here today. I'm thinking now maybe it's not a coincidence. Hmmmm....
