Poor coworker! What terrible timing for a suckass event.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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
If she has anything that's smoke damaged but still whole she can get the smell out by putting it in a room (we used a storage locker) with bags of charcoal that you change every so often.
Its a lot of time but its worth it to salvage some sentimental things.
The other good method is fresh air and sunlight, but that's tricky in NYC (and at this time of year).
Very very best wishes to the coworker.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why do some people hate Cory Doctorow so much?

I need to go to Sephora and B&N, and then I think I'm done Christmas shopping.
Problem is forcing myself to go. Horrible sinus headache may cause me to kill people. Almost killed upstairs neighbor for tromping around at 6:30 this morning.

It's probably the zeppelin. And also the red cape. Much like matadors, except that matadors don't have dirigibles.

Dear national company with a large network of people using our software:
Next time you decide to give a couple of thousand people one day to do a major upgrade of their computer systems, please send a large bribe to the tech support department of the program they're upgrading with. This will reduce the number of curses and voodoo dolls being created in your name.
kthx

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I have no idea who cory whosis is either-- is he related to E.L. Doctorow?
Last night I did the stupidest, funniest thing I have ever done in my life. I fell asleep in the late afternoon, woke up at 6:45, and thought it was the next day, which happens!. But I actually got up, got ready and got all the way to work, on the bus, in a blizzard before I realized it was night! And I thought I was late, so I called and left messages saying I was late! Quel embarrassing, but REALLY funny!
