'The Message'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I don't really want the day to start over. I would just like it to end.
Is there anything more annoying than putting something down right before you leave, and thinking "I have to remember to take that with me when I leave," and then FORGETTING IT? No, there is not.
oh Dana, I did that today too! I do it about once a week.
I have done like 3 real things that needed doing! Already! and still no coffee!

See: my keys, nearly every day for the past week.
See also: brains, same.

MADE OF AWESOME
Dear Wednesday,
Please be gentle. I didn't sleep enough because I was busy finishing The Time Traveler's Wife so I am exhausted.
Love,
Me
My attitude about this morning can be summed up with: NO NO NO.
In related news, why do TurboToddlers(TM) not come with a roll of duct tape, so you can keep them safely out of trouble before you've had coffee?
Whoa! Holy TWOP web redesign, Batman!
Tonight I get yet another fantastically useful new-teacher training session. The topic? The state test I don't have to give. So, yet another 2.5 hours on stuff that doesn't relate to me, emphasizing yet again my department's isolation from the general school community. Thanks!
Eh, I just resent these 2.5-hour meetings after the school day is over. That's my time to... play Final Fantasy, darnit!
take a book, or a handheld electronic device with games, and/or an ipod.
I just witnessed 2 grown men having the most ridiculous conversation about who is going to send an email or make a call.
Almost as good as calling out sick myself is the fact that my boss called out sick today. Apparently she continues to be really traumatized by the fact that we are not wailing and gnashing our teeth about the fact that she is leaving.
She turned around and punched the guy, hard.
Turned out it was one of the doctors she's working with that tried to surprise her.
Ask msbelle about the pirate that wanted to take a picture with her...

Alas, the group is small enough that they would definitely notice.
This will be much like the one about homework I went to, where we broke into small groups to discuss it and my only contribution was, "I don't assign it."
ETA: This is NOT to say that I see no value in discussing these things, or learning about issues that don't directly concern me right now -- I'm just bitchy about... well, everything. I treasure my free time.
