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

What is the best reason to date a Whedon fan?
Open-minded kinkiness abounds.
You know what's awesome about working from home? Besides the opportunity to sleep in a bit, see Pete, and have him bring me lunch from the place with the good coffee, that is? It means I can edit tech docs AND work on my Neo-Victorian zombie outfit for tomorrow. So, corn syrup, molasses, and neon green food coloring = ichor?
Thanks for the ~ma, y'all. After a very tense morning and watching coworkers get RIF'd, I made it through this year. While I'm thrilled for me, it sucks for people I work with. This is a crappy year (job security-wise) to be a teacher.
