Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Am I leading the witness?

I want to. I am struggling, because my boss wants me to ask her to respond with her status, and I basically just want her to quit. She did give one notice in the three week period, and one of the weeks was spring break 9the middle week)

How about this?

Name-

Since you have not been in the office for three weeks, and have been absent for one week without notice, we are wondering if you have resigned your position?

Please let me know.

If I do not hear from you by Monday March 21st at 9am, I will take that as your notice.

If you are wishing continued employment here, we will need to rework your schedule so it is not so difficult for you to come to work and attendance will be expected on scheduled days.

Best regards,

Coding and Sleeping

It's a really nice day in the 60s right now. By midnight it's supposed to be snowing.

“Not dead yet!”

cause I'm a pothoooole.....so....

Amazing how I can hear the accent soooo well. Dang it, msbelle, I'm going to be wandering around all day giggling now.

Somewhat relatedly, the other day I was asked for the first time since we've moved where I was from, because the person I was speaking to could detect an accent, but couldn't place it.

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

I just keep saying it and laughing myself. The people around me are always taken back when I really put on my accent.

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 the sort of Chicago headline you like to see: 15 people shot in six hours

I have a chocolate cupcake. This goes a long way to fix what is wrong with today.

Librarian Warlord

The lunch I had to go to was not as bad as I imagined. The two tables that tied for #1 spot for the trivia contest were my table and the table with the other Reference Librarian. Coincidence? I think not.

Please shoot me. I'm updating some really screwed up spreadsheets and it is incredibly painful. It's supposed to be automated, but the automation broke and we begged to be able to ditch this and they said no. AHHHRG. And it isn't even right to begin with!

I sent my email. I am now so tired I am about to close the door and sleep under my desk.

From Nerve, Sex Advice From Joss Whedon Fans

io9 on the Nerve thing, just in case Nerve is blocked for you: Which Group of Science Fiction Fans Has The Best Sex Advice?

What is the best reason to date a Whedon fan?
Open-minded kinkiness abounds.
