Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I am mildly disappointed that this new thread is not named Natter: Hookers and Blow!

Oo, you have a point. Of course, there's always Natter 69, although some thing tells me we will not lack for good naming options for Natter 69.

So I have been waiting all day for someone to come fix our phone lines. This is second time this week that they've blown off our appointment time. The supervisor called about 1/2 an hour ago to say someone is coming today. That gives it, what? About a 60:40 shot of actually happening?

It's pouring rain here, and my office is freezing. Bah. The only good thing about this unending rain is it means we'll have a nice long ski season, and I will be able to do some spring skiing in April.

But right now, I am cold. Bah.

Also, those puppies are ADORABLE.

Repairman is here! Crossing fingers that he'll actually fix it now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, why so cold? It meant that the drizzle this afternoon came down as snow instead of rain, but STILL.

No one hangs in LJ land anymore? I know some folks switched to DW...is that the happening place to be? I think I have an account over there.

I wanna follow the popular kids...

And I wanna be able to breathe. Ugggg, too much tissue needed.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I think everybody decamped to fb or twitter or both, Suzi. DW's almost as dead as LJ.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

So I'm going to get the chance to talk about my boss to her boss(es).

And, boy, do I have some heavy complaints against her.

Anyone have any pointers about how to do it without hanging myself (because I'm paranoid that the Big Bosses won't give a shit about my grievances), or sounding whiny and petulant resulting in not being taken seriously? Anyone have personal experience with this kind of situation?

Be very, very careful. I wouldn't say much of anything that you can't back up and that isn't against some rule or code or something.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Looking at that list of pilots, I have to just shake my head. Most sound unappealing at best. The Ron Moore pilot with Jamie Bamber sounds like it could have promise, although part of me is thinking "Lord Darcy, the series!"
