I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I had no idea that Vlad was such a popular name.

I can't explain why, but this sentence has made me laugh and laugh.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

javachik, if you don't go out to dinner, will you finish in time?

Oooh. That's a good point.

Our wings are not tired.

This testing was intended to be complete tomorrow. If I spend the evening away tonight, it likely won't be.

And part of the problem is our IT SOP for testing is extreme - I'm waiting for an email notification from the system to complete one step, and just got off the phone with the vendor. That email notification? Could be delayed for hours. So while I can go on with the next steps, philosophically speaking, my IT director would have a cow if I did so without filling out an Incident Reporting Form.

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

System validation is long, arduous process, and you never know when you'll hit a bug and be unable to continue further, too.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I don't actually have time for the noodles and cabbage. I forgot I have to leave in about an hour to go help the SO out with his Rock Academy. His fellow teacher is traveling for the next two weeks, and his boss (fellow teacher's dad) is recuperating from shoulder surgery, so he's putting in extra hours. And I said I'd go, because it sounds like fun, and because he needs the extra wrangling help, but now I wish I'd started the noodles earlier. Or hadn't agreed to go.

So what else should I eat?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Also, I did my nails earlier today and they are pretty, but totally the wrong color for my shirt, even though I tried to overlay something to get it closer. And my nails are pretty but my hands are a serious wreck.

Java, I feel some of your pain--due to the FDA wanting some stuff, our database lock just got moved up six weeks. As in "finish this week, instead of seven weeks from now". OMG, ridiculous crack-smoking people!!!! I've been making ridiculous phone calls all day, and having to change all my travel.

meara, yeah, I saw that and was like "thank goodness I don't have to also re-arrange tons of travel right now too!" I'd go nuts.
