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

My boss was all "You're at home???" while the CIO was on the call. He was also all "I have to go over that document before you present it."

Dude, I don't want to do this in public, but I emailed you all that information last night. And I'm going to say just that when you ask me in front of your boss. Sorry. I'm not taking that rap.

I'm afraid my second meeting was frustrating for half the attendees, but that's our development schedule, and it ain't changing now. You want final requirements, you ain't getting them here. We're still getting user feedback. We're making this shit up. Sorry, testers.

They hate me.

1-on-1 with my boss in seven minutes. I'm not looking forward to it. And then *another* meeting with the same damned people I've been talking to all day. I've been meeting all fucking day and I'm grumpy as shit.

Among other things, I need to choose which garnet nailpolish to take to NY. I have five bottles, and I don't remember which one I like the most. Can't be arsed to test, and WHO FUCKING CARES except me?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ok, I updated my LinkedIn profile to say I am looking for a job, but didn't find any jobs posted to apply for. If people have LinkedIn connections in the DFW area, connect to me and let me know.

mac and grandma are out of the movie and she is bringing him home. I hope it went well.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

God, I am so spoiled by Amazon Prime. I ordered some stuff from Amazon Marketplace and Barnes and Noble, and they are taking FOREVER to get to me. FOREVER.

Forever.

Art Crawl!!!

I love Amazon Prime - even though Amazon itself sometimes sucks (like making erika wait for her Amazon giftcard) - at least I was able to fix it.

Meanwhile, had a long and interesting conversation with the big boss, my boss and another co-worker about the American dream as we see it vs. how it looks to people from other countries. Very interesting.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I just successfully sidestepped a load of drama. I want a cookie.

Goes perfect with your tagline too!

Okay, that wasn't as bad as I feared.

One half hour of meeting left, and then I'm taking lunch. Dammit.

Please, ita, remember to enter your time into the time tracking system today. Don't fuck that up. But, you know, after a break from work.

Sexual position WTF? (NSFW, natch). That's gotta be hella uncomfortable.
