Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Aw, hoping for the best for Rigatoni.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Some of those cakes are awesome -- you know the people at the party were cracking up!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Thank you for the thoughts. The vet updated us a little while ago. His potassium is better, but the big fluid issues remain.

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

When considering that question, don't forgot to factor in the Pope Signal

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just tried to figure out my leave balance (as noted earlier, it is nearly impossible to get the real information), and it seems like I might have close to six weeks of accrued vacation. Holy crap. That is going to be a fat check, and makes me much more comfortable about the fact that I might have to take money out of a credit card for the whole moving process.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

If I interviewed for a job, and a company is doing a full-on background check on me, and in addition to the background check, HR is asking for my references (again), what are the chances they're going to offer me the job?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Background checks cost money, so...cautiously optimistic?

So a "full-on background" is pretty much to see if you're a felon, right?

Based on my lack of knowledge on the subject, I'd say that sounds really good.
