Just got back from watching Sunil kick ass at his Spelling Bee for Cheaters. He made it to the final two, just past Adam Savage of Mythbusters!

Woo hoo and congrats! And sorry I didn't contribute, I r procrastinatey and didn't realize it was so soon.

Way to go, Polter-Cow! You totally could have spelled lysergic acid diethylamide, too.

What is the word for the shoes you wear when you are seeking revenge?

I am on vacation today, and my boss forgot. She's about to call me to do our "goal-setting" review. She can't wait because today's her deadline. I SO want to tell her that her scheduling fuck-ups are not my problem. She's already told me that the goals I gave her aren't right, because they're supposed to be "personal incentive goals". I don't even know WTF that means. Like, take a class. I told her I'm taking a distance-learning course in higher math, but that doesn't count either, because it has nothing to do with my job. I am afraid I will not be able to hold back my frustration today.

That's outrageous, Zen. Is there any way for you to not be available today?

My check-in meeting with my VP just got bumped to this afternoon, and I really don't feel like doing anything. So sleepy!

Is there any way for you to not be available today?

I say just don't answer the phone. You're on vacation, you're not required to.

Holy crap. How did that happen?

They cut it off.

the most being a word Adam Savage managed to cheat his way past by finding someone in the audience who knew it.

Actually, oeil de boeuf (bull's eye) was easy for anyone who knew French (or architecture). I was going to stand up for it if no one else did. There were a lot of French words last night. Who missed oubliette? I was suprised by that one.
