Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

Can any of the New Englanders help me with something? I've been trying to track down an obituary since Monday, but it hasn't been online, and I'm wondering if it's in the print edition of either the Globe or the Herald. The deceased is John Ludden, and he passed on Sunday the 5th. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sorry, I don't have the actual paper. I'm sure it exists in my office building, but I have no idea where, since my department stopped getting them. Weird.

Technically we are not supposed to eat anywhere but the designated eating areas. But since we RM people don't have old records we often do anyway. We just have to sneak around from the food police.

I went out with some old coworkers for lunch and sat in the sun and drank a beer and I've been woozy ever since.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

we have ice cream at work this afternoon. WOO HOO!

I know I say this all the time, but I really want a few days off at my house, alone. I guess I should look at a calendar and choose a couple of days when mac is back in school to take off. Our vacation days are use or lose and I have only taken 3.5 thus far. Ihave another half day coming up ina few weeks, so that will leave me with 6 for 4 months and I do not want to have to take them only for when mac is off from school.

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

NO NO NO NO NO. None of that is okay! Why would anyone think it is???

I told him that there was nothing new on my desk to poke at, so could he go harass someone else, but....there's always (at least) one non-boundary boy or girl.

I've been on the phone since 9, no respite in site, send help...

OMG HOW IS IT ONLY 3:15?!?!

Doooo it!

I think with the addition of last Thursday off, I will have taken enough time to not lose any when we roll over 9/1. I'm more glad than ever that I'm taking off next Tuesday (I get back into town at midnight on Monday), because my apartment needs some serious work.

Trust my rage

I am going to Vail tomorrow! It's for a legal ed course, but I am so excited to be in the mountains and even better, away from my office! I'm trying to decide if I dress casual business like, or more casual mountain something.

Thanks anyway, Jesse. I got a 14-day trial subscription to the Globe on my Kindle, and it's not there anyway. I'm just going to have to bother the family to get the info.
