Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My boss just told me that if it were up to her, she'd let us go. Why is it not up to her??? No one is here! She was going to try to get HR on the phone. (My boss is working from home.)

Of course, I do have work to do, and we got some access to our server documents, but still.

The skinny milk carton is a quart, right? I probably drink two quarts of water a day, and yes, there is a lot of peeing.

Punishingly Intricate

I share Lisa's dream, but my boss is out, so I know that the email is not coming.

Mine is too I think. But he has been on email. So I'm keeping the dream alive.

My lunch didn't take at all! I'm Starving. To. Death.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Our office is zombie-populated, as we had our much-postponed holiday dinner last night. Soooooo much wine.

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

Wow. I'd love to slap the driver of that car. I would derive great kinaesthetic pleasure from that act.

I'm pretty sure there will be no going home early for us. And I've just noticed a 3-4 meeting. I need to go see what that's about.

I just saw a bunch of people leaving from another dept. I hate them.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

We left early, but not because of the holiday. We're moving to new office space, so everything is packed up.

I'm considering restarting, after 23 years, my thumbsucking habit.

Everything is going to hell in a handbasket here.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

My boss just called to let me know I could go home an hour early, which is nice, since I came in extra early (for me) at 8:30. Traffic will still be a pain at 3:30, but hopefully not as bad as it could be and I'll still get home before 4:00 (for a five-mile drive).

Are you steering the handbasket, or along for the ride? Can you take pictures?

I really want half a hamburger. It seems wasteful to get one for lunch knowing that's all I want to eat, and disgusting to get one and eat more.

And I'm pretty sure sharing's not an option.

Turns out I don't have to make the 3-4 meeting, which is good. Still think I'll be working the full day, but at least it will be at my desk.
