One time in a past job, we were doing some staff bonding thing, and we were supposed to pair up and share something that most people don't know about us. I was paired up with the IT guy, whose secret was, "I don't like computers." Hee.
He doesn't travel well. He's like fine shrimp.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

Mine would be "I hate caring and sharing exercises with co-workers."
Okay, maybe I'd just think that real loud.
I love computers. Shame software sucks, though.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Tired.

There are people who don't know that about you??
This was some Tony Robbins bullshit. The upside was, at the end of the day, we got to break boards.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Random question:
When it becomes July 1st, do you:
1) Think, "The year's half-over!"
2) Think, "The year would be half over, except January through June has fewer days than July through December, so the year isn't really half over until...." [and then do the math in your head]
3) Not care.

I have them all fooled. Mistress of deflection, me.

That. My year segments on the solstices and equinoxes (because I have a fear of winter and short days) and my birthday/the new year, to a lesser degree.

I do that too. I segment more on these, but I still slice and dice the year up in other ways.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
July 1 really doesn't say much to me for me except for the convention of fiscal years, which means that I get to that date and think 4) What Did I Forget To Turn In That Was Absolutely Due Yesterday?

I go to the new fiscal year, too. In the library, they close certain systems (linked to finances) for the year-end rollover two days in advance.
