Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We're currently in a debate in my family over whether we should draw names or not. I guess "not" is going to win, because at least one couple refuses to participate! And I just know one other person would buy stuff for everyone else anyway. So much for that bright idea.

I think I just got hit on by the water cooler? That was weird.

Jesse, I'm pretty sure you and a water cooler wouldn't work out.

It suggestively glug-glugs every time you walk by?

Stupid English -- I meant NEAR the water cooler. The water was polite and standoffish as always.

Ha, I was totally imagining some digital talking water cooler that creepily greets people.

ION, I am off work today! And NOT volunteering at school at all today! So between now and 3:30 pm I can do whatever I like!

I told this to Casper and said, "What should I do?" and she said, "Laundry!" Which I am doing, yes. I will probably also vacuum the living room so I can sit around all day admiring the non-crumby rug. I might get crazy and take out the recycling as well.

I'm pathetic.

So ABalGENSTABSEA is up and open - go read Press - So all I want to do now is wait for sign ups and do this all day. I am not sure work is going to appreciate that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Woo, flea! Get down with your bad self.

I'm imagining a secret network of water coolers where they discuss all the gossip they overhear, etc. Just because they don't talk to us doesn't mean they don't talk...

Rugs!

So this cotton rug is a lot cheaper than this wool rug, but will I regret getting the cotton one? Will it disintegrate after a year? Is it harder to keep clean?
