Walked into work and there are unscheduled closed door meetings going on. Not what I need around me on a Monday.
Please...Wesley...why can't I stay?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Dear timer that turns on the bathroom heater in the morning:
You cannot just decide not to work for no reason. That is unacceptable. Shape up and fly right.

Argh! Some idiot (ie me) left the gate open and my stupid dog (ie the dog that is too smart for his own good) decided I really meant it when I said I'd rather stay home and take him for a walk than go to work and he would make that happen.
Monday.
Dog is safely at home, gate is closed, and I am at my desk as usual, only a little late. But argh.
ETA and I managed to leave my phone at home. Good job, self.
Not entirely unrelatedly, I would like to punch any politician currently using "protect the 40 hour work week" as a talking point

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Drove the roommate into work because she woke up late, so I was able to stop by Trader Joe's to return the frozen Belgian Waffles that were somehow awful. I had bought two boxes, so I gave it two tries (2 portions from the first box). I've never had anything that I actually wanted to return to TJ's before! Happily, they weren't argumentative about it so I didn't feel completely horrible about it.
Yes, I am way too guilty about stuff like this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What's that even about? I'm afraid to look it up.

I think it's that there's language in good old Obamacare that defines "Full-time" as 30 hours a week or somesuch and we can't have that now can we?
I don't want to look too deeply into it because I suspect the rage blackout would be dangerous.

Oh lord. Thank you -- that is plenty of information!
So someone I'm facebook friends with just posted a sad thing about a child dying (I think, again, I avoided most of the information) BUT the child's name is "Maiysn." It was in the status more than once as "Maiysn." I'm still living in hope that it was actually Maisyn, because at least that makes some modicum of sense in English.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
My new iPad arrived 2 days early. That means the rest of the day is a holiday, right?

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

Totally.
