Mu Sis-in-Law and I were talking about business travel this weekend. We discovered we both have the same default Out-of-Town TV shows for business trips: Cold Case and L&O SVU. Both of them are pretty much always on, we didn't see them when new, and we both find them entertaining. Someone asked what it meant that we both found violent crime entertaining, and the only answer we could come up with was that we are both probably secretly evil.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'd love to have a job with some travel. If I was smart I would apply to some of those international NGOs. I have friends and friends of friends working in London, Geneva and Paris.
I also need to get to Europe. I've always put it off due to money/time, but now that I have both, most of my friends have been there or are paired off and travel with their SO. I need a travel buddy.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Boss lady just came over and said we should go home and come back when people can be reasonable. And that would be?

Well, if we're not to come back until people are reasonable, I think my department's out for quite some time. We keep saying, "it doesn't work like that," and they keep saying, "Ok, then in phase 2 we want you to make it work like that."
We're having to come up with creative ways to make them understand "No."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Why do I always do this?? I went over to ask a coworker for database help, leaving this window open just under the database. So when I accidentally closed the db (like I do every time....), you people were right on my screen with my coworker looking at it! ISTG.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Tired of losing dogs to both natural and unnatural causes? This ad for Immortal Dog is amazingly hilarious (and NSFW both because of some profanity and because you won't be able to stop laughing) and totally wrong.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
my mom is here safe and sound. I am working remotely, mac is watching animaniacs, and she is having a nap.
My brain is working double time with stuff to get done. I need to chill it out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
