Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

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.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

This time I survived two hours of packing groceries, separated by two hours of training. And my first paid break!

Pity they've only got me scheduled for another 4 hour shift this week. Unless they put me on a regular schedule such that I can make more than just a pittance, I'm going to have to start looking for a job with more plentiful hours. SIGH.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

this new frothy lung thing

I don't think "frothy" and "lung" should ever be used in such close proximity.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I need to get the name of the stuff, so I can try to find it around here.

Oddly, you are the second person I've heard of today who had a jar of that stuff confiscated by airport security. Is there some kind of Biscoff/Spekuloos spread meme going around?

The meeting was ok. We will see what happens from here forward. We have a couple of new things to try.

After that I went to the Nail Salon Nicole has been talking up for the F2F. Nice place. Happy with the results.

Then I stopped by the jewelers. Walked in with a stopped watch and some old jewelry. Walked out with a working watch, an 18" white gold box chain, and $120. Not too shabby.

Stupid reason for the failure of the acceptance test: someone was running a parallel system that was "stealing" files. AHHHRG.

Anyway, I was a bit pissy.

And now, where is UPS? My package of badly needed catfood has been "out for delivery" since midnight.

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

Yesterday's neverending deployment stretches into today. Still waiting on CIO approval to start. Which means everyone has to hold position until 6PM. Including the vendor. Which I'd feel bad about, except yesterday they kept us hanging for much longer.

Still! I want to know for sure! I'm glad I didn't go into the office, because I'd probably have to stay there until at least 6.

Posting makes UPS dude show.
