Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Host ,'Why We Fight'


Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Why am I suddenly overcome with an urge to ask sj if my filing is done?

I mean, aside from the desire to live dangerously.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I would not hurt buffistas, especially when there are so many other worthy candidates in the world, like teenage neighbors for instance.

All is well that ends in pizza.

The conversation here is reminding me of work. Oh, thank you ever so much.

heh.

Oh, what it reminds me of is the fact that most fast food franchises have contract with sound system providers to also supply headsets. It's been an almost lock on for the Muzak corporation.

Despite the logic of this, stores keep on trying to call us, the register providers, for parts and troubleshooting.

"Hi, I'd like to order two headsets."

"Sorry, we do not provide headsets, perhaps you could try Musak?"

"oh, okay. How about headset batteries?"

"I think you really have to call Musak, we don't know what kind they are."

"I can open it up..."

"Sorry, really, there should be a number, call it."

t long sigh "Oh, Okay. But they don't answer the phone like you guys do."

Always Anti-fascist!

This is why Ari Gold is one of my favorites. Cause he just says "Sure...I'll get right on that. After I have needles inserted in my cock." Because we've all been there, right? Aside from not having a cock, in my case.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think I'll go apply at the Halloween Superstore this afternoon.

Yes, you should do that. And tell me if you get an employee discount.

Not so much a work rant, as a work boggle: wait, *I'M* the techy go-to person on the team? How the hell did that happen? And yes, I did ask my co-worker if they'd tried restarting their computer.

Our wings are not tired

My other go to question for tech help.

"Are you in Europe? Do you need an adapter?"

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

wait, *I'M* the techy go-to person on the team? How the hell did that happen? And yes, I did ask my co-worker if they'd tried restarting their computer.

Heh. Yep, that happened to me when I started teaching. I arrived, all enthusiastic about virtual learning environments and electronic blackboards, in a department without a single computer on a single desk. (There were two in the coffee room. I didn't even get paid for the many, many hours I spent showing people how to find Google on them.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Last I checked he was a member of b.org. How creepy is THAT?

I know your boss, and it's totally creepy is what it is. Plus, I think you should file a sexual harrassment suit against him for inappropriate touching.
