Congrats on the new car, sarameg. I say go celebrate with your neighbors and a bottle of wine.
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Here is the important question, sarameg: what color? (also, congrats on the new vehicle)

Brava, sarameg!
As a final example of how fubar my employers are, I just got a call from my actual legal employer (the contracting firm): apparently the period of performance on my contract ends TODAY.
As in, no point in coming in tomorrow, I won't get paid for it.
That's kind of awesome.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Consuela, every time I think your job can't get more screwy, it does, even at the end. I feel like you aren't going to make it out the door at quitting time today without a cow falling out of the ceiling tiles.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Also, I bought a car. 2013 Mazda2
Congrats, sarameg. The Mazda 2 is cute!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
At the financial firm where I work, they're fairly adamant about the difference between adviser and advisor. I'm not sure if it's a style thing or if there's some regulatory reason behind it.

I think you should dedicate that song by Cee Lo to them. (one of my favorite You-Tubes is "Fuck You" narrated in ASL.)

Which is?

Brenda, I was trying to look it up, and I think that 'adviser' carries more implication of fiduciary responsibility per ERISA and the like. Anyhow, we use advisor with an O.
