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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sarameg, do they use the other functionalities of Notes? CW was at least using a large number of databases (what are they called in Notes-speak?) and being IT, we created a few of our own. That could be a barrier to migration.

Groupwise, less so. If you don't have a Novell network (do the kids even know what one is these days), are there enough features to make it worthwhile? Personally, I loved it--fuck read receipts--this tells you when anything you sent was opened AND when it was deleted, right out of the box.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My husband's company (a big one) uses Lotus Notes.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

someone on twitter mentioned red velvet battered waffle fries and I can't unsee it.

It's unsettling because I think I want to taste this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They're putting a bar in the bookstore! That thing I thought was totally the annual april fools joke!

Cool!

My company uses Lotus Notes in all locations worldwide - the rumor is that we move to Outlook starting this coming Fall.

Sarameg, do they use the other functionalities of Notees?

I have no idea. I use it as little as possible. In fact, I managed to avoid accessing it for the first 14 years of this job. If it was really important, my HR folk knew to use my functional work email rather than the corporate one. They've always had to do this with contract folk because until recently, many non-corporate-office contracts simply had no means to access the company's LN.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm watching Serena Williams completely clobber Sara Errani (French Open spoilers), and it made me wonder. How many of you can do a split?

I have never been able to, not even as a young child when my mother attempted to put me in ballet.

Nope, never.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Hellllllll no. Never in my life.

(Tim can, if he stretches a little first. I sometimes think he's really Gumby.)
