I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Dear babybat:

I don't think the goth handbook says that apostrophes are optional.

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

Holy shit, I just watched a video of the stage collapse at the Indiana state fair. Ugh.

This is one hell of an image though. [link]

Well, this is great.

My conversation with my New Boss this morning? My Nemesis was eavesdropping on it--standing around the corner and pretending to read the paper.

She then went off and told another coworker that I was "on her list". To which the reply was, "She wasn't already?"

Fuckity. This woman is not beyond outright lying to get me in trouble. Now I wish I'd never had that conversation.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, fuck, Consuela. Maybe New Boss doesn't think too highly of people who hide and deliberately eavesdrop on private conversations.

Yeah. Unfortunately New Boss is out now, and I'm not sure he'll be back before I leave on vacation. Joy.

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

Oh, God. This is turning into a high-stakes corporate thriller. I hope the outcome is not grisly.

Oh, it's not high stakes at all, which I suspect is why it's so ugly. Isn't that what they say about academia as well? the battles are so vicious because the stakes are so low.

I can't believe someone would even say that: "She's on the list." Seriously?

Aw crap, Suela, what a shitstorm. Good luck--I say flee to a new job as soon as possible.

Don't we say "You're on The List?" Or is that just Pete?

(Oh, right, we're joking.)

That would be Pete, oh yes.

(Oh, right, we're joking.)

THAT'S WHAT HE WANTS YOU TO THINK! (Do you have any idea how difficult that was to type while giggling? And telling a kitten that no, the laptop isn't for him?)
