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.
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
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!
Good lord, Sophia. That's one for the ages.
Sophia, that is amazing. I know I've gotten up and gotten ready for school at four in the morning, but I didn't make it out of the house!
Sophia, I have gotten up and gotten dressed for work on a Saturday, but never made it out of the house.
Today, I am in a total brain fog. I can't get rid of that "just woke up" grogginess.
I've unknowingly gone to work on days that were supposed to be vacation days before.
I haven't gone in to work today and it is a work day.
Does that count?
I made the mistake of trying to resolve some HMO non-payment of medical bills, and now I feel worse than I did when I woke up, which is quite unproductive considering how I had felt then.

I think it was at least partially because I don't really wake up all the way before I get to work-- I kind of doze on the bus on the way in. But all these clues kept happening that I ignored... like the bus coming at the wrong time (which I attributed to the weather), having all new people on the bus and a new driver (which I attributed to the lateness of the bus), and the fact that it never got light (which I attributed to the storm). I sort of felt like I was in the twilight zone, but I didn't get the fact that it was Sunday evening until I couldn't actually get in the door to the hospital at work (I walk through it to get to my office) without using my swipe card, because it is locked in the evening!
My best friend and I could not stop laughing about this all evening (I called her for a ride home)

This series of sleepy justifications is what happened to me, too! It was pitch black outside (I guess it's still too early for sunrise). I was exhausted (too much schoolwork, need a break). The clock reads four a.m. (!) (must have been a power outage four hours ago).
I love Sophia's story. I love more that she laughs at herself. And love most that she shares with us!!
ION, my brain is like at 45% focus on work. Holiday time + new job != productivity.
