A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

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

I have a sudden urge to bleach my hair again. But part of me doesn't want to acclimate my coworkers to it.

Yay! Zipcar cancelled. Email sent to gym to cancel that.

Corgi Meets an 11-Day-Old Nigerian Dwarf Goat

In this video we have a corgi and a cute little baby Nigerian dwarf goat getting acquainted. They seem to be having a showdown to see who is more adorable, but they are both pretty cute, if you ask me. It looks to me that both animals are trying to figure out what the other one is.

At least at the beginning, it appears the goat wants milk from the corgi.

Seems like you're right, it should just be deposited like any wage and then, not your employer's problem what happens to the money in your accounts.

Apparently some employees pick up their checks, except that one of the mandatory forms I had to fill out was a direct deposit form, so. ::shrugs:: I'm a bit worried about some disorganization: apparently the small consulting firm got purchased by a larger group without any experience in this kind of work, and they're having trouble getting the protocols all meshed together properly.

I'm really hoping they do not insist on fucking transcripts. I've been out of college for 25 years now; does it really matter what my grades were?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Go you, brenda, with the cancelling and the resulting money saving, yay!

I finished my taxes insofar as it was possible without my bank. It's pretty ugly. And it will get a little better when I get my charitable deductions in, but not a lot better. I am feeling bereft, the way one does when one pays a damn lot of taxes.

What was the next task I said? Because right now I don't wanna do any more.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Onerous task achieved: Contacting hospital to discuss bill, set up a payment plan, and make the first payment. As a bonus, I have managed to e-file my taxes, getting a refund, bit bigger than expected. So why do I feel so shaky and anxious?

Another one of these: Man Proposes to His Girlfriend in Mall Food Court (And That's Not Even The Embarrassing Part)

This video of a man proposing to his lady in a mall food court is packed with all sorts of embarrassing moments. From his location choice to the entire crowd singing the chorus of "Sweet Caroline" to the moment where she books it the hell out of there, this proposal is two minutes and twelve seconds of "awwwkkwaaaaard."

Now tagless for your comfort.

Onerous task completed: filled out and mailed registration for a training boot camp.

On hold with Tivo. This is hard. (I got a new DVR from the satellite company because I just couldn't take the crappy interface between sat and Tivo and the fact that it couldn't use the dual tuner.)
