I got LBDed last night putting up the tree. At least it was the Bowie/Sinatra version.
That's a win in my book.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

I'm still LBD free, but I usually listen to classic rock in the car. Still, I'm out where I'm vulnerable to Christmas Muzak, and I'm still free.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I think, if you're gonna get LDB'd, the Sinatra&Bowie version and the new Christopher Lee version are the way to go.

A completely different gripe about my work today. I work in an office with 5 people, we share 1 bathroom. This morning at 9 when I went to use the bathroom, empty tp roll and the sad last paper towel on the roll. People just suck. Supplies are in a closet everyone has access to.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I work by the secondary kitchen area here, and it's to the point where I'm excited if anyone else replaces the paper towels. People!

Hey editors and other knowledgable people:
I'm editing a MSS using CMoS 16th ed. There's a book title at the end of a section of dialogue and I have searched for 20 minutes to see if it should be "Book Title."" or 'Book Title.'"
Any help?
Also, scuba divers? Are C.A.L.M. and/or R.E.L.A.X diving acronyms? I scoured 7 scuba acronym pages and couldn't find them? Am I just blind??
Any help appreciated!

Oh, that sounds kind of great.
It's pretty good, as work holiday parties go! People grumble if it's a movie they didn't want to see and they'd rather be running errands or whatever, but it's nice to have some enforced leisure, I think, especially since it counts as work time paycheck-wise.

Had the career chat with my manager. I think it went well. Of course, in the same discussion I also got raise and bonus information. It was better than I was expecting it to be, so now I'm all, "Ha ha, oops, I guess you do appreciate me?" I still think moving into a different org is the right thing to do, but it would be nice to do it without any acrimony.

That's awesome, shrift! Fingers remain crossed for you.
I somehow didn't realize I had an early morning training today (I swear they must've moved the time), and was up until about 1:30AM last night. Ouch.
