You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Oh & congrats to Perkins and good job hunting, Gud.

I ran over a few kids in the pool, does that count?

I am looking what will possibly be a 12-hour day. Massive storms, large companies deciding now is a great time to update everyone through a major update, record-breaking volume.

But as of yet, no one has died/been killed in the office.

Yet.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I *loved* Poisoner's Handbook. But the wood alcohol chapters scared the shit out of me.

Because books.

Are gifts a done thing for a first communion? We just got invited to the next door neighbor's son's a week from Sunday.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

But as of yet, no one has died/been killed in the office.

For goodness sake, you can't just leave it to the last minute! Get busy!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yup! Money's good too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My coworker just asked the same thing! Except it's a nephew in her case. The verdict was yes, gifts/money.

The guy across the cubicle wall from me may just achieve an aneurysm. But I am going home.

Excellent. Thanks, people. My niece and nephew were out of the country when they did theirs, so I had no clue.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Yay, Perkins, and go Gud!

Sorry about the work stress, Connie and sarameg. I'm in the middle of student move-out, which is our second-busiest week at work (behind student move-in), plus I'm weaning myself off Celexa a tad bit faster than doctor's orders, so I've discovered that I'm prone to WILD mood swings this week. Very unpredictable!

I usually tip 20% for most everything, unless I know the person, or I find them unbearably charming somehow, and then I tip a little more.
