Also from grad school, The Take. That shit was bananas.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Office Space is the ultimate.
Baby Mamma has been bailed out. Liv's taking a nap and Owen's watching Wallace & Grommit. I'm watching the delivery guys unload my new table & chairs.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
shrift in DC? I hadn't been aware of this! (bring cool clothes - it's hotter than, well, you know - and a warm sweater because most places are airconditioned to the frigid level)

I seriously need to bring a sweater into the office for the summer -- it's so freaking cold in here! Unnecessary!

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

My office is the same way. I bring a sweater, and then forget one day and take it home, and then am freezing to the point of unproductive the next day when I'm sweaterless. And then I remember to bring my sweater back to repeat the whole cycle. Life is much harder when there's no longer anyone to safety-pin notes to the back of your shirt after school.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
It's finally below 90 degrees here in DC. And of course, as usual, my building's air conditioning is horrible. In a studio apartment, I've got two air conditioning units and a fan on, and the temp in here is around 75. That's about as low as I can get it.
The good thing about CSAs: Fresh vegetables! In season! And it feels like free, because I paid for them in March! The bad thing: washing the dirt off the leafy greens takes forever. I just put the pac choi through four changes of water before it seemed clean enough.

Right?!? I finally managed to pay my rent yesterday after ten days of going "Oh! I need to do that!" right at the wrong times.

I'm going to a convention in Silver Spring and won't really have any free time, otherwise I'd be demanding that the DCistas wine and dine me.
