To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Right, they've had their notice these past two weeks while they avoided you.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am with msbelle. I would be tempted to literally set fire to something. That sucks so much, Suela.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm very serious about you going for the Seattle area, by the way, Suela. But, you know, I've got rage on your behalf and want you to be able to just get the hell out of Dodge and let other people take care of the world for a while.

Hah. If I had my druthers I'd head for Boulder or Portland, maybe, but the center of gravity for the family is here, with two siblings and my parents, who take a lot of my attention. I can't leave.

And there's plenty of work here, anyway.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Well, that is ridiculous and unprofessional. Not what anyone deserves.

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'm so sorry, Consuela. I'd be strongly tempted to leave with no notice as well.

Sadly, just not going back into the office would be unprofessional. I have projects & clients that I can't just leave hanging.

Ido think you should look around a little wider - unless you really. Want to stay near your family

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Happy Birthday, Noah and Grace and K-Bug!

Allyson, what a gorgeous house! May you both be extremely happy there!

Holy CRAP, Consuela, what utter shitheads. I wouldn't resign - they've fired you, you deserve to get your unemployment. I say, go in, don't do another lick of work, get your stuff and leave, and let them discover you're gone the way you discovered you didn't have a job anymore - after the fact. What assholes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

When I got let go from a job, I was offered two weeks to finish stuff, or the same two weeks' pay for not coming back. Obviously, I didn't go back -- except I did go in for a couple of hours the next day to make a big list of what I was doing and the status of things, which frankly was MORE than enough for those fuckers. (But of course, the people I didn't want to leave hanging were not the fuckers.)
