Did you know that some people are proposing that we send people to Mars... to stay? For the rest of their lives?
Where do I sign up?
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Ha! They made a point of saying they were sending over font files as well.
This font they apparently had to send us? Helvetica.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Boss has just said it's okay! Oh, god I'm outie, as my sister would say.
That's excellent. Not the reason, of course.

10 out of 12 on the politics quiz...Thank you, Keith and Rachel. One day I'll get fired from someplace because either Yemen(Friends) or propane(KOTH) will make me laugh at something I shouldn't. The NFL is(are?) being greedy killjoys and quite possibly Worst. Persons. In the Worlld! And I don't follow football...just, like, suits suck.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
OH HOLY GOD, now they've sent a power point presentation for the designers to make graphics out of!
That's what, all of 150 ppi? What possible problem you could have getting that ready for a print publication of 300 ppi or better?
This font they apparently had to send us? Helvetica.
If they'd sent you this it might have been more forgivable: [link]
In short, I feel your pain.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I think we may have the right assets now. I don't know that we do, because I can't open them (don't have PS & they won't install it for me because a)contractor 7 b) not a designer. But, I do think it would be helpful if I could nip silly shit in the bud before it got any further.
I'm pretty sure dude just thought I could throw that puppy up on the web and it would look fine @@.

You know, I could be embarrassed that my boss handed me two tampons that fell out of my pocket, but I just can't be bothered...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Man, I am having a crap day for productivity. I don't know what is wrong with me. I think I'm irritated that the SO left this morning to deposit paychecks, which we should have done yesterday so we didn't have to go out in the mud today. Now it's escalated into post office, bank, music store, grocery. Which means that once more for admin day it's me doing admin and him running errands.
Now a) I appreciate him running errands I just wish it were happening on a different day because I have dependencies waiting on him. And b) it's not like I don't need the stuff he's doing to be done.
But somehow this has translated in my brain into "he's not getting anything done until afternoon and therefore I'm not getting anything done until afternoon. Not helpful, brain.

WTF ad for buses in Cardiff.
Wow. Started kinda strange and lame and then totes veered off to WTF there at the end.
