The missing one is Steve Carrell.
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm gonna do it, Cass!
I think taking some time to relax and make a dent in the giant backlog of TV I'm behind on is a wise choice. I haven't had a chance to watch any of the new QI or Never Mind the Buzzcocks.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm glad you are taking the day, shrift. Seems only right.

Somewhat related to fucking goats, I never realized that "fucking the dog" was a Canadianism, which I learned in this article: [link]

Still waiting for plumber. I got bumped to the 5-8 slot. 'Emergencies.' YO, I CAN'T FLUSH THE TOILET. I SCHEDULED A WEEK AGO.
Not the plumbers fault except by over-extension. Which the warranty people will be made aware of.
Unamused.

WTF, sara--yeah, they may be thinking you scheduled therefore aren't an emergency, but....no. Just luck/timing/holidays/generous neighbors!
An old coworker saw me post on FB I was in the airport, and stopped by to say hi. How fun! I haven't seen her in probably 5 years?
I'm hoping Thursday/Friday to get some organizational/onerous work done. Fingers crossed no new fires popped up over the holidays that I will need to deal with.

Are you still waiting, sara? That's nuts!

I had an 11-1 slot (I groused about that when I scheduled last monday.) At 1 I got a call saying it would now be 5-8. Went swimming, worked, waiting.
And yes, it is nuts and the warranty company will get an earful, when I get a hold of them (will also be emailing them.) I didn't have the patience to sit on hold today. 24 hr service needs to be just that.
