Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, good -- I think we said "develop" most of the time. But not all of the time, because it's too boring. Are the others OK?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I like the Boots knock-off you can get at Target, but I think the formula of the YSL one is slightly better.

But $30 better?

I went to Sephora at lunch (giant mall across the street, home to the Apple Store; how I managed to escape without buying a Macbook is beyond me) and got Benefit's Eye Bright. Playing with it, it seems pretty good.

Benefit also has a new powder foundation that, holy crap, I really love and might have to ditch Aromaleigh for.

I think you should make up your own terminology.

"They're almost done deep-frying the new app!"

Just be confident about it, so that other people pick it up. And if they look confused, explain it in a slightly condescending way.

I don't think anything is going to lure me away from Aromaleigh at this point. Now I just need the owner to get back from Italy so we can continue plotting.

I will definitely try that. But maybe not until after we get the money...

Called Hello, Flawless. It's not a loose mineral powder foundation; it's your standard pressed powder. But it's so unbelievably matte that I almost cried. (I'm often quite shiny, so a matte powder that stays matte is a thing of beauty.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

For April Fools one year I sent around a memo saying that in the future each client would have its own font, and that whenever possible the font would reflect the nature of the client. That way, there would be no more confusion over what documents belonged where.

Then I gave some examples. They included cloud-writing font for an airline or something.

No fewer than three (out of only a dozen people in that office) came to me asking WHAT partner had approved this and INSISTING that it would only make things MORE confusing.

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

I seem to have been put in charge of organizing a scavenger hunt for Bring your Children to work day.

Sadly, this is not an April Fools day joke.
