You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I don't have Monday off. Prepare for me to be hating you all. Except lisah.

It's not like "build and ark" level flooding, but a pipe burst in another office somewhere, then leaked into the hall, and is leaking into our office.

Aha. I have so been there, with my history of being employed in some pretty skanky buildings.

I am so tired. I think I might die.

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

My sisters. I don't have Monday off, either.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I do not have Monday off. Boo no Monday off.

I have Monday off! Ha ha! Which is good, because I'm going to a concert Sunday night.

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 do not have Monday off.

Me neither.

(eta: Presidents suck anyway.)

At least my commute will be easier....

THAT'S IT. I'm taking tomorrow off.

I am filled with hate for this place (the physical placeness of it) and I am done fighting the hordes of people who are here to see a golf tournament for parking. (The school lets people park on the campus for the golf tournament at $20 a car.... each day I have come this week, I get harrassed at the gate by one of the fucking aides. I'm done).

sigh. The crank meter got turned up to 11.

I thought that you should take acetominphen to bring down a fever.

My ER nurse friend told me that if you can safely take both, alternate them to break the fever faster. Though hospitals tend to give acetaminophin alone because almost no one has a bad reaction to it at recommended dosages.

Happy Anniversary Deena and DH!

My own Valentine mission was successful. Ms. Havisham is working from home this week on freelance stuff so when she left the house for 15 minutes today to pick something up, I sprang into action and managed to get everything in place in time. Flowers and card were displayed and I was hidden around the corner when she got home. Smooches were to be had upon the successful completion of the mission...
