It's like a horrific love song to eHow. Also, hilarious.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

For those of you who use Zulily: I have had more than one issue lately with broken items, and shipments gone awry. While their customer service has responded, the shipment issue is one they seem unable to correct no matter how many times they tell me it is taken care of. While they give refunds since they cannot replace things, I am still left pretty annoyed with them because I am having to put in claims, track down and/or deal with broken items.
Buyer beware. I don't think it is worth my time anymore.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thank goodness I have other projects in addition to the PR clusterfuck: I just sent one email, got a response, forwarded it to someone here who replied, "You're my hero." If only it were always that easy!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, anyone here know what a mustache spoon is?
Mustache and soup don't mix (especially when the custom of the day is to wax one's 'stache), so what's a moustachioed Victorian gentleman to do? Well, they eat soup with Moustache Spoon.

Jesse, if you don't already, create a mail folder or filter or whatever called "kudos" and stick that e-mail in there along with any other glowing responses. It is great to be able to pull up the positive stuff when you have a crap-ass day or when you are doing a self-evaluation. Hard evidence that you are awesome.

I totally have that! It's a good thing.

When I do my self eval, I have to provide hard examples of how I meet or exceed certain criterea. I pull quotes and dates and such from that folder. "On June 14th, John Smith asked me to audit project xxx, worth $500M, as an expert in revenue review".
