Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

I want a basket of kittens! I work at a library. Surely we could have baskets of kittens in the workplace.

What does "meteorological Spring" mean?

I am opposed to Daylight Savings time starting before the equinox. Who thought that was a good idea?

I read "basket of kittens" and think "oven full of witches" for some reason.

Fingers crossed for you, shrift!

So, appraisal guy was supposed to show up at 11AM. At 11:10, I called him (thinking maybe he was in traffic or having trouble parking), and he first said "No, we're at noon!" and then clarified "you're on 59th street, right?" Uh, no. So then he couldn't find me. I was like 'Dude, YOU left a VM for ME, we set this up a week and a half ago??" Finally he found it, realized it was his bad...and was like 'Uh, crap, I'm getting in the car now". He's 45 minutes away. I'm guessing he's not making his noon appointment?? Grrrr

I would also like a basket of kittens. It is not yet kitten season, however, so even though I'm home for a couple weeks, there are no kittens to foster.

They want to charge me $750+ to change my flight to Saturday morning. I could get the $200 change fee of that refunded possibly, but I guess I'll be cancelling the flight.

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

shrift, did you tell them it was for a funeral? I'm not sure if that would make a difference or not. Will you get your money back for cancelling?

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

What does "meteorological Spring" mean?

Meteorologists generally consider Winter to be Dec. 1st to Feb. 28, Spring to be March 1 to May 31, etc. I like it because it cheers me up at this time of year.

I am opposed to Daylight Savings time starting before the equinox. Who thought that was a good idea?

Congress. Because they thought there should be at least one thing that would conserve energy in the energy bill they passed in the aughts. But apparently it doesn't really conserve energy,but just produces annoyance.

Bah, That seems unreasonable. I'm sorry shrift.
