"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

The woman in the cubicle across from mine just picked her ear with a hairpin

Better a hair pin than a hat pin (which is what I envisioned when I first read this - shudder ).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It works!

Wheee!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, I have to remember this: In my endless staff meeting, something came up about did we ever get to the local contact for [elected official]. Someone says, yes, I did, it's [person's name]. I know that person! We went to grad school together! So my minion was like, "You're so connected!" I need to remember this for when I'm looking at job postings that want someone with political contacts -- I actually have some.

Not only is that gross, it makes it worse. My ears don't bother me as much after I use a candle...cleaner ears are, at least on me, not as itchy, either.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Fri dinner - waffles

I love that you guys always have waffles for Friday dinners. (Or do you alternate between waffles and pancakes? I can't remember.)

Eeew.

And I enjoy some inner ear frottage as much as the next guy--ok, much more than the next guy and I would NEVER do that.

But a bobby pin has, like, a scoop-y effect!

Loves My Fiestaware

It's nice, but both my sister and mom are also fans of Fiestaware, and I must always do the opposite of one if not both of them. It's a lifelong reflex.

Yes, I have maternal/sister competition issues that I fully acknowlege!

But, I also prefer patterned plates with either nice big designs or multi-colored, not mono-colored. I like showy, splashy stuff, but I fear getting bored with the same showy pattern and don't like the idea of replacing stuff because I'm bored. So, I stick with a pattern I truly detest just because it was free and I don't want to commit to a replacement.

Le sigh. Ennui engulfs me.
