Some people try to pick up girls and get called an asshole; this never happened to Pablo Picasso.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

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

I would give a digit to Occupy my Couch right now.
I was just in a planning meeting where we're taking about a project that has, at minimum, a 24 month timeline. Half of the people sitting around the table will be retired in 24 months. After they leave it will be me, my ineffective boss, and the new coworker who has alienated everyone in the office. Work, meh.

I'm Occupying My Office but I'd rather be at home Occupying A Nap.

Just a digit? Piker.

Well it's only the couch. I'd give a whole arm or leg for a bed occupation.
Amy - Oct 25, 2011 6:26:31 am PDT #3041 of 30001
Because books.
Yeah, that's a better plan.
Sorry work is so borked, Sue. Sometimes I don't miss being in an office at all.
And then other days I drive myself crazy here alone, so.

Whoops. My digit got overexcited.

Good news here at work today. We thought that the outsourcing vendors who take care of our state regulation allocations were on holiday both today and tomorrow, but when I came in, they had done the day's allocating. So, I just have to do tomorrow's, and then next Tuesday (another holiday for them). Yay for not having to do today's, and since I came in early to start working on it, I can leave early.
I still have to do the research for and put together my religion presentation for tomorrow night's class, so I'm heading out of here at 4:00 and going straight to campus, where I'm hoping to get everything done except for the PowerPoint assemblage in about four hours, then I get to come home and put together the presentation on my own computer.
I have to stop at JoAnn Fabrics and pick up some DMC floss for my cross-stitch project (it's a kit that forgot to include a big batch of one color needed to the frame around the piece; I picked up one skein on Sunday, but should have picked up two), and if there's a Best Buy nearby, I'll pop into there and get a memory stick so I can put my PP slideshow on it instead of emailing it to myself.

Man, I need some mental recharging.
You should go to New Orleans and drink beer and eat amazing food.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
