Sadly, not working at all isn't an option

Shoot. Well, inside pants is next best, I guess.

Zenkitty rocks the casbah.

Gud shot the serif.

I just discovered pinned tabs a couple of weeks ago, so I am probably overusing them.

I'm glad you have all your appendages, Dana. Have fun storming the Dragon Con! (I am not wearing my dragon today, cut back to a lizard (not to say I am one of the lizard people. Swamp gas, weather balloons, the planet Venus))

Trying to get my tea brewed in between meetings is making me punchy.

Cats, man. I changed their litter last night and scrubbed the box. I just watched Lucky poop right next to my filing cabinet. What more do you want, animal?

I've been reading and nodding along. Low on spoons. Work has given me a 30-day extension on the PIP. I cannot continue to live my life in 30-day increments. It's stressing the hell out of me.

I'm so sorry, Maria. You are in such a sucky situation through no fault of your own.

OK, tea brewed, now to get the full pot over to where the meeting is without spilling it all over myself...

Oh, god, I've only been here for two hours. The downside of having the most experience of the techs, I get the sucky customers. You are the customer, dude! It is your company on the line! Do not just say "You tell me" when I ask what you want to do with your company's data! You have to choose between two options, which I have explained to you, you have to grow up and pick one! I understand that you resent the fact that a woman knows more about computers than you do, but get the hell over it.

I find that as the longest-serving employee a lot of calls get sent to me just because. Also, I'll actually talk to callers, which some people just won't.

Oh Maria. That's so frustrating. I'm sorry.

Ah. I got so caught up in chicken counting and office politics! (Once I realized that tips in Australian is bets in American.)

See when I first started reading billytea's tale, I thought he was saying he was PLAYING rugby or football or whatever with his colleagues.

Well, now I want tales of rugby-playing chickens.

Also lunch, because second breakfast was (a) too late and (b) not nearly enough food, apparently.

That's what pinned tabs in Chrome are for, Gud.

I don't use Chrome (unless I'm debugging Javascript), but Foxfire has the same thing! Thanks, it's always good to learn about features I've never noticed before.

Still very hungry. How many meals do I need to eat today? Jeesh. Maybe a Diet Coke will help.

I'm trying to find people to cover my classes on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. I'm not having much luck. This is such a pain.
