That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

This is not the June data you are looking for.

The status is NOT quo.

Will you krav them soon?

Thanks for the duvet affirmation! I wasn't seriously upset -- more just bemused by how long the process took. I do like the cover, though, and it was an incredible deal. I just had gotten to the point where I'd looked at so many that I no longer trusted myself to make any kind of judgment.

Art Crawl!!!

I like the duvet cover and agree that marimekko has excellent fabrics.

I have now e-mailed all the people. Can I go back to bed now?

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

Aha. I think this is it: Situational Leadership. I'll have to read more detail, but a skim of the premise seems similar.

The silent developer has responded to my "What did you accomplish yesterday?" email, but I'm really hesitant about actually reading it. I'm convinced it will be a rationale for not having done what we'd planned out for the day. Please prove me wrong...

I am more than a bit disingenuous about never remembering this skirt is too short until I get to the office.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Those photos are all so wonderful. Kids had to linger over them this morning.

Ugh ita, I would be so fucking frustrated if I were you. I mean, my charges act like that but they are kids so a certain amount of coddling is to be expected. I do not want to coddle grown-ups.

Yeah...he just came back to tell me there are, like, a thousand records for May 10th.

I think we're closer now, though. He seemed to leave with the word "last" on his lips. I hope it makes it all the way to his desk.

Dear place I go for lunch once or twice a week for the past three years and who used to not fuck shit up,

1 - I can taste the difference between Diet Coke and root beer, so please just pour me a new soda without a long discussion over who poured the root beer and why.

2 - Pickles and cucumbers are not interchangeable. I ordered pickles.

3 - OMG WHY IS THERE NO CHIPOTLE MAYO ON THIS SANDWICH. SERIOUSLY THIS IS A CRIME AGAINST SANDWICHES HERE.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I had a meeting I was supposed to call into this morning at 10. They sent revised call-in instructions at 9:59. Then they hung up on me.

My boss rocks - she went to the same place for lunch and brought me back a side of the chipotle mayo. LUNCH IS SAVED.
