Barb, the Lush-like place near my house that's locally owned and fun and makes bath bombs and soaps and things? The owner appears to be a big stoner, and offered to trade me baked goods for free stuff...:)
Ooooh. Take him up on that offer. I love love love their cupcake bath bombs.
It's a chocolate cupcake filled with chocolate buttercream and topped with chocolate ganache.
WHY YES I NEED THAT RIGHT NOW.
remembers that there's still a slice of the chocolate/hazelnut/brandied cherry Cake Of Doom in the house
Mmm, cake. Yes.
(I am still pouting about not meeting Nora and Tom!!!!)
(I am still pouting about not having that Chocolate Bliss cupcake.)
We have student worker who has been spending way much time in the staff lounge. By which I mean, he uses it when he's not working a shift, but just studying in the library. I am being unreasonable?
Sparky, is he being disruptive?
Oh dear, I have found new shiny objects to covet on Etsy. Sterling silver bat necklace! Sterling silver skull and bones necklace!
is he being disruptive?
No, definitely not disruptive. He's just using the space to study and lounge in and it feels sort of invasive to me. I guess I feel like that is where the staff gets to go to socialize, eat, and spend break time. Our options for this are very limited, especially spaces away from our patrons where we can vent a little. He, on the other hand, has lots of options on campus where he can go and eat his lunch among peers. Our lounge is just the closest microwave.
Hmm. Then he probably shouldn't be hanging out there. But I'm not sure how you could get that across to him.

Well, clearly you need to come visit.

Hmm, yes, I can see how that would be annoying. I'm not sure how to frame it, though.
Jilli, I should send you a picture of my bat necklace, except I'm not sure how it would photograph. It's made of jet, was handcarved in Indonesia, and the bat is hanging upside down like it's sleeping.
OMG so pissed. Our office is freezing (v. high ceilings) and I've been wearing a hat and armwarmers all week, and they (HVAC) won't turn on the heat until Dec. 1st for some mysterious reason. But THEIR department has heat, right down the hall, and they shut the door so none of it comes down our way. Screw this mess, I'm going to talk to the supervisor, and if that doesn't work I'm going up the chain.

That's not right. They need to either share the warmth or freeze with everyone else. Asshats.
Well, once again the shop guys are spreading bullshit rumors. The boiler should be turned on and if it's still cold on Monday we just do a work order.
This is why one shouldn't accept anything at face value around here.
smonster, so you'll have heat on Monday? At least that's something! Hope you can stay warm till the end of today.
They found The Girl's suitcase. It was still in London. British Airways - the efficient airline.
