The office is trying to figure out the level of air conditioning to use now that the building is mostly occupied. My first day here it wasn't set cool enough. They've erred on the side of chilly, though, and I dressed for the too warm. I guess we'll see how well I can work with my trench coat on.
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

I got a filled donut from Starbucks. Closest I'll get this year. But they forgot to charge me for it, so I'ma call it a win.
Also I was trying (and failing) to remember what the word/pronunciation is for paczki in the singular. But really, how likely is that to ever come up?

Art Crawl!!!
Donut shops are supposed to be open at or before the crack of dawn.

Yeah, otherwise legions of 9-5 office workers go hungry!

Hence the "time to make the donuts" commercial.
I had a friend who (before labor laws were particularly enforced in my town) worked making donuts from 3 am - 7 am before school. And then after school she worked in the pizza shop.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
A coworker comes to me with a problem, and I can't seem to convince him that the simple, straighforward solution I proposed will work. He just keeps coming back to my cube and staring at me blankly. So frustrating. Just try it and see.

This what I'm saying! Today the crack of dawn was only 20 minutes before I started work, but still.

Just got a message that there is king cake in the kitchen. In the office in Albequerque. Surprisingly only one person has replied-all that it would be a bit of a hike to get there.
We had paczkis on Sunday, but I still have NO idea how to pronouce it correctly.

Poonch-key. (I have also heard punch-key, but my Polish grandma always said poonch-key, so that's my official ruling.)

Thanks Teppy.
CJ doesn't have to be at school until noon today and tomorrow. Arrrrggggg. It is messing with my ability to concentrate on work.
