"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

Tommy,

The second one is all sound effects except for the thought balloon at the end("....it's sweet") and the title is "Ice Cream"

The first one has some kanji I can't look up right now, but there's one bit about, "It can't be helped, since I was born on a Friday". Not sure how that ties to fish appearing when she sneezes. The bit at the end has her saying "It's warm...." and using that last fish as a muffler. (Hence the title)

The mangaka's name is Midori Yamada, which I think is a woman's name.

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

Hey--people who chew gum with your mouths open--why?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I can't store butter on the counter, as it melts and goes bad. My kitchen is that warm.

You need a butter bell.

I got invited to be one of the judge's for today's event in the ongoing "summer Olympics" the firm is having to amuse itself. The event:

Synchronized Swiveling:

1. Each team shall consist of 4 or more players, performing together in separate chairs.

2. Without leaving their swiveling chairs, each team performs a synchronized dance to the same music, the first 1 minute, 45 seconds of Eye of the Tiger.

Because books.

the first 1 minute, 45 seconds of Eye of the Tiger.

Oh, I hope someone plays thigh guitar.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

This is a day. Nothing has gone wrong exactly, but nothing's going right either. My coworkers seem determined to screw up my stuff; I stupidly missed a deadline that alas affects someone else more than it does me; tomorrow is my BFF's birthday which I somehow failed to realize so I'm real glad for the one-day shipping option on Amazon but damn; my credit cards have crept back up to the max again; I've gained back 5 pounds of the 15 I lost earlier this year; and my sister's coming to spend the weekend and the house is a mess. The common denominator of all these problems is, of course, that I'm a useless mess lately. (Well, not the first one. That's not me.)

I'm gonna step away from the laptop, grab some lunch and maybe a nap, and try to recelibrate my brain and start over from Go.

Recelibrate?

Okay.

Well, that's inevitable, of course.
