Seriously, why did I bother being on time for work? It makes no sense.
Why did I bother coming in. I am here today for one day, then I am off until the 2nd. Why didn't I take today as a vacation day? I make no sense to myself sometimes.
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Fucking hipsters.
Habit?
Yes, also a sense of obligation. To what, I don't know. I still haven't worked today.

Let's see, BWI's baggage claim continued to suck and got jammed. I really do think they have the most incompetent of baggage handlers. Got home really late, but unpacked because I hate being packed at home. Picked up the cat this morning and he decided to poop in the carrier on the 20 minute ride home. Gah. Cleaned him up as best I could in a hurry, but he'll be getting a bath tonight.Now at work, catching up on email and typoing due to keyboard confusion.
Tired.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Sheesh, they're almost as bad as Bethlehem priests.
To be fair, I'm a little less surprised at violence from wild pioneer explorer types who are cooped up together in a frozen wasteland than from role models of moral conduct who are entrusted with caring for the birthplace of the Prince of Peace.
Some people are going to be getting coal in their stockings next year.

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
can i be late to work, too?
I'm all packed for home except my makeup bag.
I have horrid heartburn, and I'm a little queasy. My stomach always revolts before a flight.
Now have to go to work for 8 hours, then to airport, then to fly.
Two weeks of no work, no getting up early, no grocery shopping.
Sweet.

Punishingly Intricate
There are only 2 people other than me working today and they are annoying me by playing music without using headphones right above me upstairs. I can just hear the tinny parts. I hate that almost more than anything!

I'm... still not working. I'm kind of waiting for someone else to get back to me, but I suppose there are other things I could be doing.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
I'm one of a few people here, but some of the others include the workers putting up office walls for the new head honcho, which means a lot of drilling noises that are DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!! Oh, well, at least I'm only here for a half-day, so I can leave at 2:00.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Teddy's bloodwork came back Not Good. He's back in the hospital while the vets (1) aggressively treat for some Very Bad Things that could be wrong and (2) conduct tests to find out what actually is wrong. He's acting lively and eating, though he vomited again late last night.
Meanwhile, we were so late at the hospital, plus I didn't sleep well even after we finally got to bed, plus the stress has gone right to my back. We're both home sick today.
