Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am still in deep denial that Jesse is moving.

I am working from home today as I have a 10:30 meeting at mac's school. I swear if I could work from home every Friday my life would much better. I'd save $20/week, and start the weekend off more rested with more work done. I bet I'd even get more office work done. Why some companies are so against tele-commuting I have no idea.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

But it's Friday, and Halloween Party Day at work, so no one will expect us to get any work done this afternoon!

What are people doing this weekend? Who (in addition to Nicole and the Reasons) has big Halloween plans?

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

Not an Onion headline: Drunk hedgehog taken to hospital

A 'legless' hedgehog was found rolling around an orchard after getting drunk by gorging on fermented apples.

The prickly creature - nicknamed Tipsy - was 'squealing loudly' when animal rescuers arrived at the scene in Braunton, Devon.

She was taken to the Prickly Ball Hedgehog Hospital in nearby Newton Abbot and woke up the next day nursing a massive hangover.

'This is definitely the first drunk hedgehog I have found,' said Ann McCormack, who took Tipsy to the hospital.

Despite being dosed with painkillers and antibiotics, Ms McCormack said Tipsy still had a 'big headache' in the morning.

OK, how do they know Tipsy still had a headache?

eta: Funniest thing about that article? A stock photo of a hedgehog, with the caption, "A non-drunk hedgehog."

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Why do weird things like this always happen in Britain?

Because Britain is a magical place!

I mean, you pretty much run into a pixie, fairy, troll or dwarf every day, right?

People are giving a coworker a harder time about him wearing a tie than his vampire fangs. I admit to being one of those people.
