Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Know what's funny? My hands have started to swell like my feet.

Okay, that wasn't funny. I'm sure something was going to be funny, but I dismember what. Good thing my GP already gave me a rush appointment for this afternoon for the whole morphine thing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Or you could say, "I noticed a discrepancy in your copy of my email - here is my actual email for you to refer to" or somesuch.

Oh, I like that.

We just had a salesguy walk into the office (which they're not supposed to do, no soliciting), and when my boss said, "We're not interested," he got kind of passive-agressive and said, "Oh, I caught you on a bad day."

Because, you see, my boss is a woman, and should clearly be hearts and sunshine when someone comes into the office to try and sell us some crap.

Augh. And my supervisor just played a Matt Lauer interview with Ann Coulter in which she used the term "girl president", and now I want to run around punching people in the crotch.

She did pretty well. Not Vortex-style, but enough that his last words were "Okay, I'm leaving!" After he tried to convince her that he wasn't selling anything.

ita, that's rather scary & worrisome. I'm hoping they quickly figure out what's going on and it has a non-complicated remedy.

What to do with cilantro?

I understand it makes a good, if smelly, compost.

I want video of shrift doing this.

Also, I forgot the keys to my office. Again. Oops.

It's going to be a Very Long Day.

Nuke the bastard.

Twenty-five minutes until home time. Time is slowing down. I can only assume it will come to a complete stop at twenty-nine miutes past four.
