Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh good LORD. I just realized why I was getting annoyed with my boss's comments on this letter I was writing: By version 3, we were basically back to my original letter, which she made me change! Not having a boss made this kind of thing much easier.

On the upside, they are letting us go early. On the downside, I don't know if anything's plowed yet.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This isn't something I can hold against the company.

True. But the group is boggling. I just don't understand why they never want to do things.

I hope you feel better.

Because books.

Working today sucks. I want a nap. Possibly until tomorrow.

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 want a nap too. But a hot bath before that. Or maybe some time in a sauna.

Maybe I'll go to a Russian bathhouse this weekend.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hivemind! I am writing a cover letter and I need help with this sentence: "As a post-production house, CaptionMax had a very tech-savvy staff, so I am comfortable with Geeky Peeps." But I don't want to say geeky peeps. What could I say instead? Or maybe I should just restructure the whole sentence? Any suggestions?

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

"teams possessing cutting edge and esoteric interests"?

brillig

Is the point of the sentence your comfort with geeky peeps?

Yes, it's a IT services company, so I want to stress that I am comfortable with techy people.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

But I don't want to say geeky peeps. What could I say instead?

Nerds!

Sorry, not helpful.

Comfortable with working in an IT-heavy environment. Comfortable with technical jargon and....nerds.
