Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Happy Birthday msbelle!

I'm sorry for the crappy days, other people.

I am drinking my first cup of coffee from my new french press. I think I am unimpressed, so far.

Happy birthday, msbelle!

Today is just the latest crap-work day in a series of crap work days. I have had at least 2 coworkers out since the holidays ended and at one point only one other coworker and I were here.

I hate having to reschedule people, figure out what is going on with their cases from incomplete files, and deal with dropped communication.

The good news-I have another job prospect! I'm really nervous about this one though because it comes through a friend who is a headhunter for creative firms. I won't be terribly upset if I don't get the job (though it does look like a great place to work). I just don't want to disappoint or reflect badly on her.

Can you actually make a decision before the caffeine has hit, even if it is over the coffee itself? It's something of a tangle.

Happy Birthday, msbelle! Mac is too cute.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

I know I'm asking for a smiting by even saying this, but I would pay good money to see Shrift in a bridesmaid dress.

Especially since my annoying cow-worker who works out loud is now singing "Loving you.... is easy cause you're beautiful....." over and over again.

I think that would be a justifiable homicide.

Happy birthday, msbelle! BK day!

okay, people need to stop quoting the lyrics. Everytime I push it out of my head, someone quotes and it comes back!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ha! Me too!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

alas, no BK. BK is Wednesday.

And since I am still sick I brought in lunch of soup and some leftover chicken. I might as well have blandish food while I can barely taste anything. I am going out for ice cream though and I am buying myself some flowers for my desk.

I am solving issues at worka nd have taken care of all requests thrown at me so far today, so I am not ready to call the day crappy yet.
