SoS turned into "Sauce" for me, than "Saucy" so maybe OI'll call Buffy "Saucy".

'cause I shouldn't call her REAL name (Barney) in public!

I'm so happy I don't have to work the parade.

And that the homecoming shirts are all gone.

Ha!

This is an awesome video:

Holy F*ck's 'Red Lights' Music Video Has Cat Band, Cats Driving Cars, Explosions, Cat Kaleidoscope

When you're a cat on the run, sometimes you gotta just pop in a cassette tape and get down to business. That's more or less the premise of Holy F*ck's new video for their song "Red Lights." It's got everything you need on a rainy Friday: retro film quality, animal jam sessions, and a dog chasing a cat in a sedan.

eta: The video uses footage from the movie Bullit, along with original footage.

OMFG. I put in a "delayed release" ticket with our data centre vendor a week ago, that starts out "On Friday October 15th after notification from the business unit via ita..." and they've been calling and emailing me all week to find out if they can do it.

It's a freaking DNS switch, and also I SAID NOT UNTIL FRIDAY. They even called me at home last night. I've been getting really pedantic--asking them to read me back the text of the ticket and then saying "No, see, you can't do it."

I told them they wouldn't hear anything from me before 4pm today Pacific, and they sent me email at noon saying they hadn't heard anything. I just checked the ticket and my "I know." reply is on official record.

Mortifyingly the business unit has pushed back and the DNS switch is now not to happen until Monday or Tuesday. If the data centre calls me over the weekend to find out if they can make the switch I will pop a cap in someone's ass.

Oh, god, now larger than life guy is talking about eating a six pound burrito. Why?

I just don't want to know what was in it.

Flight delay!

So I dilly dallyed around, and then got in line for security. It was huge! But I happened to know, (since I'd been directed there for power outlets, thank you terminal maps) that the security line on the other side was minimal. So I hoofed it down there, knowing that I'd have to walk all the way around to my gate, but I had plenty of time.

Found the gate, went looking for more power outlets, and decided to buy Starbucks before I sat down. Whereupon I discovered that my gate had changed to the other end. So then I walked all the way back to where I'd started, but this time with coffee in my hand.

Then on arrival, I discovered that the flight is having mechanical problems in Puerto Vallerta and it's going to take a couple of hours more than planned. Which puts my rental car in question, so we'll see what happens with that.

Anyway, life could be much worse. I did in fact find another outlet and I have my soy pumpkin latte.

I just don't want to know what was in it.

Or who...

I am disproportionately irritated at people who complain about Zarmina. Would they prefer it be named Cathy? WTF?

Is it Zahr-MEEN-uh? Once I heard it pronounced, I think I'd be fine.

I had to google Zarmina, but now I am prepared to be irritated. What complaints do people make?
