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.

I have to take six pages and turn them into five pages that cover information not included in the original six pages. Argh.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Smaller font and bigger margins, Jesse.

I have to figure out how to recreate excel templates that got deleted and I wasn't around for the creation of. FUN.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I dreamed that I was trying to find our classroom, and when I got there, the floor had a serious tilt, and I could barely balance my laptop on my knees... and the teacher was Magneto?

Clearly I was anticipating my return to class today... but Magneto?

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

I wonder if glossolalia could be considered a valid business writing style....

Did we all consume too much media over the holidays?

Yeah, what's the narrowest font? I've been told 12 point font, 1" max margins. (What does that even mean? I'm assuming they mean I can't use .25" margins, but that's not quite how it reads, right?)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So what you are all saying is that if I go into work, people might actually expect me to work and/or talk to me?

I don't think I like this system.

I'm glad you got back okay though, Tom.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Yeah, what's the narrowest font?

Do you have Arial Narrow? I think that's my narrowest.

Sadly, yes. One of my team just called to ask for the rest of the week off. Good plan! She works from home, and hadn't quite put it together that her husband and both kids would be around the whole week.
