The tiny houses are cool...but the tiniest ones have no bathroom!!

I couldn't make cupcakes in those houses, either. Sad!

Of course, I really don't need all the space I currently have (partly because the apartment is slightly funky shaped). But I *enjoy* having all this space, after years of living in a fairly tiny apartmnt, so...

I just got a call that boiled down to "Well, unless you tell us to do our jobs, nothing's going to get done." To which I reply "Well, tell me precisely what to tell you."

What response do you think you'd get to "Why don't I just tell your replacements to do your jobs?"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've known who Paterson is, as a big-time Harlem politician, but I had no idea he was blind.

I just had a really interesting and flattering conversation with a grad school classmate. It's neat to find out how other people see you (when it's good!).

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

It is one of those few times I regret managing projects at this stage in my career and not people. But I'd not fit in here as a people manager. As a project manager I just have to remember I will be startled.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Being hired and getting paid kind of implies "Do your job" does it not?

Someone buzzed my apt a little while ago claiming to be from Comcast. I asked who he was looking for (since I don't have cable). Once he learned I don't have cable he started in on some pitch which I cut off. Is Comcast really doing door-to-door sales? Or was this guy just trying to get in my building?

Apparently it depends where you work.

not your mom's socks.

I reply, "No, and underpants gnomes."

and repeats "and laughs and laughs" without the strike.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

comcast has done door to door sales in my area. However, not by accident, when a new service came out and they carried lots of marketing stuff.

personally, it sounds a bit fishy
