Okay, that Satoshi guy is complete douchery. Completely disgusting.

System still down, and I didn't project for this when I bought a matinee ticket for Premium Rush. Might be $7 down the drain. I had an inspiration, but it might not be the real issue,

Wait...no...my hunch about why we're down looks like it was right--what are the chances of getting permission to fix it in half an hour? Nil to none, I fear.

Okay, now this guy is pissing me way the fuck off, to the point where I've just about run out of words beyond FEMINIST HULK SMASH. If someone else wants to go in and eviscerate him, it would be a thing of beauty and a joy forever.

Walk away and put on a tiara and get yourself a cupcake, and bask in your rightness. Even if he won't get, you do.

I could get the nail gun. No recoil.

Oh, Theodosia. I'm so sorry. It sounds like she had a good long run.

...speaking of old ladies? My parents and grandmother and I took our annual trip for lunch in the town in Rhode Island where my mother grew up, which was nice. The weather was gorgeous and the food was excellent, as always.

Also, I've been trying to come up with a floor-covering solution for the cat's litter box area, because his aim is terrible, and I thought I had it just now at Staples: a 24x36 dry erase wall calendar. The price on the rack said $19, but it was a 2012 calendar, so I thought maybe it would be on sale. The guy scanned it, and it was $25! Which seemed riduculous, but since there's no Home Depot or similar that's easy for me to get to to buy a linoleum remnant, it might end up being my best option. Annoying!

Jz, them guys are not capable of learning. Wonder Woman could be the only thing between them and gruesome horrible deaths, and they'd be asking loudly when Superman was going to show up.

Dammit, I found one thing that was wrong, but it's not *the* thing that's wrong. An hour past when I wanted and....dammit! Our remaining problem is something that was 50-50--we had a choice of two servers to bring up last night, and we brought up the wrong one. If we'd brought up the correctly configured one, I'd have solved the only problem, looked like a hero, and made it to worship at the altar of JGL.

::curses at sky::

Oh, look--Better off Ted. I've heard good things about this...

Jesse, there are floor mats that big that might work - these are LL Bean and pricy [link] , but BloodBath and Beyond has similar stuff for a lot less.

I use a cheap rug, because my cats don't miss the box, but they throw litter around all over the place, and I have to sweep less if I put a rug by the boxes.

Jesse, I would try talking Staples down. Since McPhee started NO CAT PEE ON THE FLOOR!!! I finally got them using the new litter box, but she has scrubbed the floor within an inch of its life.

I had a problem with Penny and Dean flinging cat litter every where and occasionally missing and then I got 2 of these giant litter boxes [link]
