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

I just lost a big post because b.org spontaneously logged me out. Annoying. Maybe just as well, though.

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

Grr. I don't want to worry about stupid stuff with the portacath. I really don't. But when she mentioned a new drug she wanted me flushed with weekly...I dunno.

I stayed late for no real reason other than my doctor's office was messing up with the prescription again, and my boss called me at 4:50 for a piece of information. So I was able to show him I was here at all hours (everyone my level or below clears out by 4:30) and dredge up ancient history for him besides.

Go me.

Why am I still here, though? Time to close documents and go home.

Close documents, ita !. Go home.

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

Sometimes I continue working past any reasonable quitting time out of sheer inertia. Like, my butt is in the chair and the work is still here, so I just... keep going. And then it's 9pm and I'm really hungry. Like now.

Me, too, Zen.

Go home, ita !!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I've been converting some expenses from Swiss Francs into USD, and now I kind of want a hot dog.

You know, I gotta say: I don't think parents should give their friends' email addresses to fund-raising companies associated with their kids' schools unless said friends actually say they're interested in supporting the school.

Color me cranky.

Yeah, no kidding.

Speaking of opt-in advertising, Arby's is celebrating Talk Like a Pirate Day. If you text AHOY to 27297 (thereby signing yourself up for Arby's text message marketing) it'll message you back and you can show the message to the clerk to get a free Value Menu item.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I so upgraded when I moved here.

staying up even later engaging in Marital Duties with my DH, who D. went promptly to sleep and snored LOUDLY.

Man, I hate that. The not being able to go to sleep while they snore blissfully. I like the (pre) Marital Duties.

Most men with nothing would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich than face the reality of being poor.

Debet, where's that from?

ita !, I happened to ask StW about the portacath thing, and he said that there's not a general reason to choose one side over another, but there may have been something about your anatomy that made them choose.
