I vote for skipping the party. After-hours = not mandatory = loyalty doesn't enter into it.

I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

Another friend of mine has a huge sense of loyalty to the place she works, and while they haven't been assy, it just no longer works for her. She's also having a hard time letting go to take care of what is best for her. Hell, I did too, and I wasn't even leaving my employers, just one part of my job.
Your fierce loyalty is an admirable thing about you. They just don't deserve it anymore, but it's hard to give up.

My cats are REALLY happy I (and they) are all home: MK won't shut up and is following me everywhere, Devi is very talky and lovey even after I had to scrub her chin (she had a zit thing) and Loki is braving the dreaded Devi-bitch to be in the same room with me at all times.

You know, I'm not really sure Jess, juliana, and I count as unbiased opinions on this matter.

I think I may have to admit I need a new tv. It took being on for 5 minutes before it would acknowledge the remotes (2 that do work, so it wasn't the remotes.) I mean, I'm going to have to switch to digital anyway and this thing gets wonky when it is warm and occasionally goes schizo when I turn it on....
Not made of money, however.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Totally what both JZ and sarameg said, Kristen's Roommate! I mean, seriously.
SERIOUSLY.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Why do I have this clawing sense of guilt?

Seriously, no contest. Go Keanu! Choose Keanu.
