Natter 67: Overriding Vetoes
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Also, I'm irrationally pissed off that I spent $70.00 on flowers for E.'s wife last week, and only our operations manager chipped in. He tried to give me twenty bucks, like he knew that no one else would, but I wouldn't let him. Fuck you, office!
Dude, what the fuck? NO ONE else chipped in? Not B, not G for the love of God? Also, you know I'm chipping in, but I'm also broke until Friday.
This just isn't going to work. I have no time for a nervous breakdown.
Lordy, don't I know the feeling.
I wish I could take time off and drive you to the vet and back, but I just can't. I might could drop you in the morning if someone could pick you up.
Would it be helpful for me to come over tonight and help you focus/get things done? We could help each other, and watch Inception special features as rewards for getting things done.
smonster, you don't owe me a cent, honey. I'm pretty certain I owe you for Wendy's last week.
Haha, the Inception special features are trapped on the Blu-Ray, which are trapped in A's apartment, where the apartment complex communal Blu-Ray player lives. But we could be ninjas and break into her place! Or knock.
Thanks, y'all. I love you people. Seriously. I think I'm just having a combo sleep-deprived/you want me to work? Work really hard? Can't you see I've got serious shit going on? moment. Once I make about twenty unpleasant phone calls, write up an agenda for a meeting I don't want to have, draft some contract language while completely sleep deprived, and make an appointment for Lulu tomorrow with a different vet that's in between my many meetings tomorrow and figure out how I'm going to get her there, I'll have it halfway under control.
Until tomorrow's freakout. Watch this space!
Oh, smonster, The Mayor is leaving and going to the University of South Carolina. After he turns into a snake and eats us all.

I just need to take it one thing at a time, and it will be all right.
This. Look at each thing and work it, then move to the next.
And my Uni is closing at 2 p.m., hurrah!
I also just made the executive decision that, no matter what, the library will open at 8 tomorrow, not 7. TPTB should never have put such a lazy person in charge of this stuff.
smonster, you don't owe me a cent, honey. I'm pretty certain I owe you for Wendy's last week.
Look, I care about E and I want to contribute to the flowers. SHUSH. You can paypal me for the Wendy's after you get paid.
Ah, but I have a non-BluRay version of Inception. So we're g2g on that front. I'm coming over tonight, bitch. What time? And should I grab something for dinner on the way over?
The Mayor is leaving and going to the University of South Carolina.
Oh fine, he finally gets all kumbayah and shit and then leaves? I see how it is.
No info from my uni. Unfortunately, since the Board is meeting this weekend, they will be reluctant to close early because they wait until the last minute to do everything, so shit hasn't gotten done (signed, is currently working on a report that was assigned this morning despite the fact that they know I am leaving on Friday. Side note - how the fuck do you not know how many students are in your program? I understand having to check on it, but not having a roster or spreadsheet that you can count? Really?)
I'm coming over tonight, bitch.
I love you, smonster. This made me smile.
Look, I care about E and I want to contribute to the flowers. SHUSH. You can paypal me for the Wendy's after you get paid.
I know you care about E, but...but...the money will just even out in the end! It'll be like us handing each other the same money back and forth to each other, except via paypal.
Speaking of E. he called today and said that he wants to come back to work. YAYAYAYAY!
Come over after six? It'll be good to see you.
Oh fine, he finally gets all kumbayah and shit and then leaves? I see how it is.
Yes, well, as you know, our university is a decidedly non-kumbayah place atm. I think the new budget cut policy is "Turn two, the rest is food."
