Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And I just got two different emails from two different organizations. Apparently the House is voting on a bill, likely to pass, that strips a lot of protections and benefits from immigrant victims of domestic violence. With all that is wrong in this country, why are we protecting abusers and stripping benefits from victimized women and children (and a few men)? It's just depressing.

Oh, and I heard on NPR this morning that Republicans in Congress want to fix the Pentagon budget issues by cutting medicaid and food stamps. Seriously, again, crushing hungry women and children without health insurance for the benefit of the powerful. Seriously, so depressing.

Uggghhhh. And seriously, where is Jesus in all of that? I'm pretty sure Jesus cared more about feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, etc., than anyone's sex lives or family configuration.

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

Oh, I'm sorry I think I misunderstood msbelle. So part of your intention is to demonstrate how often your coworkers are the ones keeping you from completing tasks? I thought you were being asked to record your time.

Jesse, Jesse, Jesse, you're reading the new testament all wrong. Just stick to the parable of the talents and parts of Romans and ignore the other stuff and it's much more accurate.

no one asked me to track my time. I am doing it pro-actively to have a discussion with my boss.

I visit with co-workers and in no wy would try to hide that, trips to the mail room take 15 min because of that and will be reflected as such. BUT, because of the current stuff in my life, a couple of people came by for longer chats today and it threw off my tracking, but I am making it work. I shifted lunch up to include that and wasn't planning to go out for lunch anyway, so eating at my desk in 30 min is not an issue.

Also, you can now decorate your home Justin Timberlake style, so that's good.

That shit best be up on good stuff. SNL really needs to do a skit with Beiber ordering it all.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I would like for that to happen to me!

(Looks at table. Sighs. Nope, just bill and some pliers. Damn.)
