Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

And this will allow her to go back in time to notify her past self and re-plan her day's objectives accordingly?

Right??

All these added layers of crap are just making me feel that I need to get out of here. I am, however, terrible at planning/exit strategies. Which is why I have somehow made a profession out of something I thought was going to be temporary. I need some kind of life coach.

Happy Birthday, Tom!

It is snowing here...we got a few inches overnight and it is still coming down. Third day of APRIL people. We got NO snow in March. WTF?

Because books.

Ugh, Suzi. That's not very nice.

Baking types: If a recipe calls for a half cup of butter and a half cup of shortening, can I just use all butter instead?

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

Happy birthday, Tom!

I have to fill in calendars that indicate whether I was in or not. I never gave much thought to it. They keep attendance numbers, and the source must be recorded somewhere, so why not there?

I am trying to shop for guava jam, since I've stretched out what I brought home from home as long as I can. It's amazing how much prices vary, and how unclear it is if everyone means the same thing by guava jam as we do. V. confusing. I will have to go by brand, and apparently the internet has never heard of the brand I bought when I was last there.

Amy, you COULD - it'll change the texture, but won't destroy it.

And Happy Birthday Tom!

Thanks, Todd. I'm going to give a shot because I have no way to get out and get shortening today, and snickerdoodles are calling my name.

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

We have to record our absences in SAP for HR/payroll purposes. The only reason I would be putting them in my calendar after they happened is so this one person can track my whereabouts.

Can the director not see in SAP? That makes no sense. We have to multiple enter, but not after the fact, but before it, for planning and notification purposes. Our Outlook calendars have to be up to date, as well as the team Sharepoint calendar, as well as the HR system's calendar. Tiresome, but I get the point, and the effort required to synch them up isn't worth it.

Does anyone here read ApartmentTherapy.com? Do they trade on their private lives as well as their living conditions and design tips? I'm reading some people saying it's hypocritical of them to ask for privacy during their divorce, since their relationship has been their cash cow up until now, and they can't suddenly switch that off.
