I will blame the money pillows on the drugs. Sadly, all my pillows are just filled with feathers.
Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
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.
Several years ago, in New York, Siegfried and Roy had a van containing some of their tigers stolen. They went on all the TV and radio stations begging the thieves to return the van and for God's sake, don't open the back doors. About half an hour later an anonymous call came into the police saying the van was in a particular alley. Tigers were all safe, no one was reported to have been nibbled on.
Who carjacks puppies!?!?

Would I get to play with the puppies? How cute are they? it might be tempting. IJS.
Yay shrift! Fingers crossed they could find something awesome??
Today I have to PDF a bunch of emails. Which is ridiculous--regulatory-wise, we have to keep lots of documents. Traditionally, in paper files....and when email came along, for many years we would have to print the emails. PITA. So eventually someone figured out we should just keep everything electronically--an eFile. Great! ...but at my company, the one they've started using is crappy, and instead of, say, being able to just FORWARD the emails and have them show up, or cc the file, or something like that (which I could do at my old company), here we have to print them as PDFs, name them correctly, and then import them to the electronic file. Just a waste of time.

I am tentatively hopeful! I think the opportunities right now are in our Europe and Asia offices, so moving abroad is looking more likely.
Fleeing the US actually sounds good right now....
When I went out to get lunch, I was noticing how warm it is here! 29F!
My boss volunteered me, without asking me, to take over another journal for two months while its editing human is on maternity leave. Of course I said Sure! No problem! because I'm a motherfucking team player yo. This unfortunately means working with the manager who secretly doesn't like me. I am plotting everyone's demise.
29 hardly happens here, much less negatives. But I was here when it was 120, so I do have weather horror stories(Although the internet really showed me that enormous dust storm that time...from here, it didn't look that huge.)
