.Like the apple is going to be putting on a show for the other veggies in my fridge, and fomenting some sort of freakish rebellion.

I have a pasta scoop and dishwashing brush that I fear will lead an kitchen utensil uprising. The scoop smiles! They have feet! Militant posture!

...I may be a little touched.

Now meara has me thinking I should check the fridge to see if my one remaining Jazz apple is exhorting my lemons to get up to some mischievous hijinx.

(ETA: That's not how you spell hijinks, huh? But I kind of think it should be, so I'm leaving it!)

I want a Cuban sandwich.

But are they real Cubans?

I like the tie-dyed socks, and the socks with flames. Am trying to find somewhere in Canada that sells the brand with the flames.

I'd like to state, for reference in a couple-three weeks, that I expect to be yelled at by the main office for not making enough progress. And the thing is, it will be really fucking hard not to be defensive and combative because we're running flat out now, and I don't see performance improving and we've sort of reached the limit, near as I can tell. And with May coming fast, we are royally fucked and I knew this a year ago and have little control over it. I've said it again and again, as have others with actual clout, but we don't have enough bodies and minds. What do I need? I need more memory than we have slots for, I need more space than has been alotted, I need to have some of the core routines rewritten, I need my backup company to not be filing for bankruptcy, I need teams to not be changing the requirement, or for gawdsake, at least having requirements closer than 2 months before d-day, or for that matter 2 months after the original d-date, I need the test and dev systems to be able to load the system the way ops does. I need teams to really, physically, viscerally GET what "FINAL" means and not have to redo half my work halfway through because someone didn't look at it closely.

End ragey work dump.

Bad week for me to have this meeting.

Dear Printer,

Why will you only print one copy at a time when I keep selection ten? Super annoying.

Frustratedly yours,

Me

Are mustard and dill pickles anti-quease?

It's the garlic.

The good news is my roof doesn't seem to be leaking like it did when I was gone for my brother's defense. I guess they did actually patch it.

My SiL says he really does like pink. They had pink cammo hockey tape at the sporting goods store the other night and she said he would love it.

I'd bet you could find socks in pink camo at Target. I'm sure I've seen it.

I don't really know what most of your work ventage means, sara, but it does sound annoying and frustrating and throw rocks at people's heads. I'm sorry you have to deal with other peoples' stupidity that is catching up with you. :(
