I spent a good ten minutes trying to work out if there was a reason any of the things *I* was thinking of, working from home, to do to get her the sales order weren't going to work--the project manager also sits next to the business analyst whose job it is to balance the IT books and get the vendors paid (one of the Chrises, actually), and she does this shit in her sleep.
So even if he'd remotely forgotten about the woman he probably talks to every day who's the intended recipient, the woman he probably talks to every half hour--IT'S HER JOB TO GIVE SALES ORDERS TO VENDORS.
Mind boggling.
This is the kind of thing that only the internet will appreciate, and probably not even then:

Love. Forwarded immediately to my family.
It's safe to say I get indoor pets about a gazillion less than I did before.
Am watching the body switch movie with Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds and...since I switched my dictionary to British English, movie's not a word now? Come
on.
I'm watching the body switch

and it's kinda cute, but no one can body switch with me and be vaguely convincing without taking much time off. However, at that point it's trivial.
Dog shaming is made of win.
I'm writing a piece about an organization run by a Nancy Yancey.
Nancy Ann C. Yancey? If she waltzes at a formal ball she's fancy, dancey Nancy Ann C. Yancey! A friend and I came up with dozens of these one summer. I can't even begin to remember them all. They're more fun spoken out loud.
If she does it in a horse costume, she could be fancy dancy prancy Nancy Ann C. Yancy
