Hey, Ginger, I have a burning question (not literally) about fluorescent bulbs that I bet you know the answer to if you don't mind me pestering you a bit.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That was not what I was expecting.

So did I mention I applied for a different job here? I did--it's the senior spot filled by the coworker who retired recently. Anyway, I applied at kind of the last minute, and what do you know?
I didn't make the short list. Because I'm neither a current federal employee nor a veteran. ::head-desk::
However at least one of my more-competent coworkers did (as he is a current federal employee), so possibly they'll end up hiring someone who actually can do the job in a useful way. I can hope, anyway...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Maybe it's time to enlist? No, probably not.

It is, by the way, a bad thing to seal your ducts with duct tape.
And here I thought there was nothing that couldn't be fixed by duct tape, but it turns out ducts not so much?
Oh Suela, your work. There's not enough Xanax in the world.

GodDAMN, Consuela!
Once I realized the date, I knew it was the twin's bday. Happy FIFTH!!!!
For the longest time, that date was part of my password system.
I was a total rockstar today and knocked out two complicated scripts that will make my job a lot easier. It would be a lot faster if I didn't have to dust off my perl, oh, every damned time. But the thing is, while I might be good at plotting out how code should work, actual coding makes me a little manic...ok a lot, in a bad way, so I let long intervals go between execution. So I have to remind myself of the syntax all over again. Jack of all trades, master of none, that's me.
My poor officemate, though. He's had to put up with 3 days of muttering, violent typing and dramatic sighs of disgust.
