Great to hear, Calli! Woot!
Whoa. Good myth.

Congratulations, Calli!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Congrats, Calli! That sounds real good.
Not to make light of your predicament, Strix, but I am picturing you walking away in slow motion from your car as it explodes.
I can see this. Sorry for the car self-destruction, Strix. I hope this causes you much less trouble than it sounds like it will.
Steph, I've spent most of the day waiting on a response from That One Manager Who Never Answers My Email. Predictably, he never did answer, so I just did what seemed reasonable, and if it was wrong, I'm sure someone will tell me so. I've been dealing with one of his team's journals while that journal's editor is out on maternity leave; it's been 3 weeks and he has not answered a single email yet. I'm thinking of informing my boss of this, just as an FYI, just in case some ball gets dropped that I don't even know about, so she knows ahead of time that he isn't communicating with me.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Congrats, Calli!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Steph, I've spent most of the day waiting on a response from That One Manager Who Never Answers My Email.
I went ahead and did X thing today that I thought was correct, and within 5 minutes he emailed me (I assume he saw the activity on the database) and said "You could have just done Y, but X is okay too."
Well, (1) if X was okay, then you didn't need to contact me at all; (2) if you would have answered questions, I would have just done Y (which would have been less work for me anyway); and (3) the ONLY thing that gets you to email is when you see something "wrong"??? I wouldn't have done it wrong if you had just answered my first 2 emails, you giant knob.

The status is NOT quo.
Exploding car = not good
But that slow-mo visual made me laugh. Only because I know you're ok.
Congrats, Calli!
I am currently across the street from my school because I realized I was getting hangry and needed to eat something before I had an issue.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Sorry about the car, Strix.

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

Yeah, they're a new breed. Cute-looking, but not as cute as the Sphynx, with their weird head-shape and huge ears.
