Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Yay Bob!

Here is all I am reading. Hello we are assholes and we are going to work you to death and expect miracles from you. When you fail, and you will, we will say things like "you were not up to the task" or "sorry that you did not want to be challenged". Run, run while you can.

Oh hey, it's like the last place I worked. RUN AWAY.

Run as fast as you can, Dana.

I'm trying to onerous by starting on Dad's taxes. Except I don't have any paperwork on Mom's IRA or Social Security income this year, which means I have to pack everything up and go over to his apartment.

Or, better, I could finish reading the book I got halfway through last night.

Thanks, guys! That news is always good to hear, of course.

Hello we are assholes and we are going to work you to death and expect miracles from you.

At least they put it right out there in the job listing, though?

Somebody had the brilliant idea of bringing around a beer cart for charity. Now I have a Corona. It's not my favorite beer, but it is beer.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Now someone has called with a survey about natural gas, which I honestly know fuck-all about, so I'm going to be one of those people who give stupid answers and make all Americans look like morons.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I know that butane is a bastard gas.
