What's a good thing to put a gift card in, for a similar HS grad? Just something little, so I don't know why I can't come up with it. Maybe I'll just order a water bottle or something from the college.
I'm very sorry if she tipped off anyone about your cunningly concealed herd of cows.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Karl, it's so good to see you, but it sucks that it's under such hard circumstances. I'm sorry for your loss, and for all the pain and regret, and we love the hell out of you here.

A water bottle from the college is probably an awesome idea.
I am up super early because I"m trying to stay on central time so I can get up for the race tomorrow (which starts at 7:30, and I have to be awake a while before that to be ready, get there, eat, etc).
Sorry for your loss, Karl.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm so sorry, Karl.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry, Karl. Both for the loss and the many points of pain in your memories.

OMG this morning. In one hour on the desk we dealt with 6 passports and a recalcitrant Congressman's office. Plus stuck compact shelving and all the usual morning stuff. I feel like I lived a whole day in that hour. Can I go home now?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Pursuant to last night's conversation, I guess linking to a Sarah Palin book and stripper shoes, plus saying outright that I was trying to get them to give me a real answer wasn't enough of an indication that I was joking, so I have now been labelled Inappropriate.
Oh well

My condolences, Karl.
True to form, the maintenance guys who were inspecting my tub for leakage yesterday left big grungy footprints in it. So I've been prodded inadvertently into cleaning my tub, and have decided to get a new shower curtain liner rather than try to salvage the existing one.

Water bottle is a good idea, Jesse.
Go home, flea. Your invisible friend will write you a note saying you are done for the day.
I am testing our upgraded ERP all day today (they call it the "War Room", I don't know why) so my actual work will pretty much have to wait. Oh well.
As I puttered around this morning musing on how I am always too damn tired to do anything after work but then don't sleep well at night, I realized that probably what I need to do is go to the gym immediately after work every day and get some kind of exercise. However, I think Friday is a bad day to start.

Yes, sister of Lee, inappropriate was the idea!
Well, we were amused at least.
