Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The ophthalmologist told me to be very careful walking down stairs when I first get them, because if I look down through the close-up lens part, I could trip and die a humiliating death. (Okay, her recommendation stopped after the word "trip," but the rest was implied.)

Doctors try to avoid saying things about humiliating deaths. I think it's in the Hippocratic Oath Addenda.

Not my Awesome Doctor. He mocks me on the regular. (But I also mock him, so it's fair. If he didn't mock me, I'd have to stop seeing him. I can't wait to see what he says about my 2 months of IBS on Monday.)

ION, my company's developers are nerds (no shock). Apparently the secret code name for our next version is Vibranium.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, you guys are awfully good at helping people write their self-evaluations -- can you help me write one for someone else? She's so great and kind of leaning out a little in the coming year, so it's tough to come up with three areas for her to work on.

Leaning out? So...she'll need to focus on prioritizing, communicating, and maybe delegating?

Am I crazy, or is there no way to see the discussion here? [link]

I think you're supposed to click the link to listen to the interview rather than there being a transcript to read.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It is a link to join an online discussion though? So you can comment, but not see other people's comments?? I am confused.

Whereas I spend a lot of time looking down and reading, so it's time to give in and get them.

You will also avoid looking like a crazy person -- or my grandmother -- with three pairs of glasses on hand.

Thank you! Actually delegating is a really good one.
