I'm not a big boss, but we have an admin assistant for our whole group. The couple of times I've gone to her to ask her to do something for me has felt so awkward. I'm just used to taking care of things for myself. Guess I'm just not Big Boss material.
I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

Wait a minute, it's really called a urinal mint? Does it make the urinal minty fresh? Because really I think nobody should be licking urinals to make sure they are minty fresh.

Suzi, the admin who supports my key stakeholders has been really pushing me to let her do things like file my expenses and it's just so weird to me.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
The boss stories are making me laugh, and also making me feel competent, which is helpful on a day when I cannot wake up and get anything done. Thank goodness my boss cancelled our weekly useless meeting today. I have to keep up my facade of being a responsible adult.
I have an orthodontist appointment in two hours and I want a nap. What should I do?

I got in fine. I love the difference between the dog's call-name and their registered name. Fr'instance: Bubbles the Saluki is Sandstorm Blue Nile BubblesOfJatara.
Also, I had no idea the show-clip for a Portuguese Water Dog (same dog as Bo Obama) looked so much like a poodle. Poor dog.

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

I first heard the term "urinal mint" on Beavis and Butthead, in which Beavis complains about how they taste.

Urinal cake is just as bad as urinal mint!!! Why isn't it called something inedible, like a urinal freshener?

Oh dang, I miss Beavis and Butthead.

There's another food-related term.
From Wikipedia:
Urinal deodorizer blocks, also often called urinal cakes, para blocks, urinal mints, urinal pucks, urinal peons (pee-ons), or urinal cookies, are the small disinfectant blocks found in urinals.
OK, "urinal cookie" is bad.

OK, enough urinal mint discussion and on to more wholesome topics!
"A sea slug that is able to detach, re-grow and then re-use its penis has surprised scientists."
The cool thing about this link is it has a YouTube video of the classic King Missile song "Detachable Penis". (Not the actual video, just audio with the album cover.)
I think everyone needs to hear this song at least once.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I..ate cherry tomatoes and ricotta cheese instead of my leftovers and instead of the lunch I cooked for the SO. It's possible I should stop mocking things and actually have you guys make decisions for me. I'm not doing all that great on my own.
