Looks like I'll hear today/tomorrow about my 2011 merit increase. Crossing my fingers it at least covers the cost of my medical plan increase which started in January.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I have returned the monitoring equipment and will have results in a week or so. Results from the radioactive injection were normal, no problems.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Crikey. I'm slightly traumatized from some bad personal news my coworker got this afternoon. She sits in a cube right by office, so came in to close the door and cry hysterically for a while. It was so sad! And hard to know what to do.

Let's just hope those creepy Slim Jim characters weren't waving at the camera, msbelle.
The coming of summer always makes me want to cut my hair, which I did (or rather had done) Tuesday. I can't wear ponytails or barrettes because of my teflon hair.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Allow me to just say FUCK YEAH REDS!!!!!!
Seriously, THAT is how you win a ballgame. Ramon Hernandez hit a 3-run cross-field home run on 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th. Daaaaaaaamn.
Not enough to revisit Firefly
I didn't think you watched it at all.
I gave it a shot when it was on TV, through, I think "Ariel."

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
And hard to know what to do.
I am horrible at comforting. All I am ever able to do is offer kleenex and a glass of water.

I couldn't even do that! I mean, I offered her some water in a glass I had already been drinking out of, and a napkin. I did bring her kleenex eventually.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Glasses of water help? Noted.
I can't imagine being in either position at work. I would suck at them both.
I got thrown under the bus into a meeting at the last minute without preparation. I asked co-worker for the one document I was asked for, and she's sent me ten documents that aren't that one.
To make myself feel better, I tossed another co-worker under a different bus. If you won't reply to my emails, maybe when I send it to additional recipients you'll pay attention.
Not my best day. I'm going to print out some more materials and go home and read up for tomorrow.

Yeah, I'd always prefer to keep my personal life trauma on personal time....

Because books.

At work, I think most people don't want any more than a closed door, someone to hand them the tissue, and a minute to compose themselves. You did good.
