I am at a place in Portland and the power just went out. I mean it was raining kind of hard, but no thunder or anything...and now it's been out for like ten minutes! How crazy.
I wear the cheese. It does not wear me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We had a totally irritating fire drill today. And I realised way too late that a co-worker tried to tip me off about it. Although I would have gotten in trouble if I'd ditched it. Still, 11 floors in the metal stairwell was hell on the head.
And I had the shit startled out of me when another co-worker patted me on the back. I'm so attuned against office physical contact that the idea that he touched me to apologise for having his back to my back was a complete inversion of what not to do at work.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Really? I mean, it was raining but not enough to kill power, I wouldn't have thought.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Because Kung Fu Kid would sound like a sequel to Kung Fu Panda starring a baby goat.
Dammit.

Now tagless for your comfort.
That chaps my britches too.
MINE, TOO!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OMG, the guy a cube over is talking in sexy voice over the phone and I want to scream and run away.
My pearls! My pearls!

Because books.
My pearls! My pearls!
You would have hated my old office. We used to read parts of the worst submissions aloud to each other, including the really atrocious "erotic" scenes.
Of course, we also used to read aloud a lot of the stuff we published, which was often just as bad.

I thought they did a nice job of that on Castle, when Beckett picked up the phone when what's his name called in the last episode.

But there was sex in your job!
Now, understand, I was tied for nastiest person at krav. There was barely a lewd joke I hadn't made or a person I hadn't copped a feel of. Hell, I planned out the demise of more than one virginity of my coworkers. But that was a very different workplace.
Here? In this office? Tech support is not supposed to be calling people sexy during work hours. Nu-huh. MOTTS to the infinity.
