"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I should qualify that I did get a good rating overall, but sometimes learning what your coworkers think of you is... enlightening? I guess that's a nice way of putting it.

I'm having my own cat issues. Shadow is allowed outside, and he's gotten used to using the world as his bathroom. He's not coping well with having the doors closed now that it's cold. Hubby was always here to let him out and in during the day. So now I'm having puddles show up near the litter box. My housemate's cat uses the litter box exclusively, and there are territorial issues that never came up before. I don't know if feliway will help with a situation like this. I'd get a second litter box, but I don't trust Other Cat not to colonize that as well. He comes into my bedroom frequently and tries to force Shadow off his own bed.

Actually, I barely have any "coworkers" in my office anymore, but I am working on trying to get someone to hire me for a job at the Mother Ship.

Side note:

We saw one of Google's Big White Buses dropping off a tech nerd in our neighborhood today.

Matilda: I want to go on that bus.
Me: You'd better get hired by Google then. Then you can go to Googletown.
Matilda: I want to go to Googletown!
Me: It's pretty mathy.

Even before I read Connie's comment, I suddenly had "won't you take me to...FUNKYTOWN" in my head.

Just what I need.

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

Me too.

Google should make use of that.

Or shrift should. Maybe that would be better.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Crap. Someone hacked my AppleID account. I knew they tried to get at my google address, and my Instagram (which I never use), but they succeeded with my AppleID. Pooh!
