All those places look pretty terrific, shrift!
OK, self. Remember all those things you would rather have been doing than working? Time to get to it.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Congrats, Kate!
Sorry about the sucky day, Zen.
Amyth, I sent thank you notes, but I still spent nine months unemployed, so I don't know that they did any good.

July 9 is a good date for a birthday.
Massive crazy hour long, constant booming rainstorm here. Made me quite happy.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
My co-worker needs to:
- get her act together and figure out what exactly she needs me to do so she can ask in complete sentences that include nouns; I'm not psychic.
- remind herself that when I have conflicting projects it is my bosses who determine my priority list, a group of people which does not include her. (We're at the same level of middle management and I have over 14 years seniority; while each manager calls the shots within their own bailiwick that doesn't include supervising the work of other managers.)
- stop buzzing me on the intercom every 10 minutes with something else she forgot to tell me about if she expects me to get any work done, and
- save the hand-to-forehead martyred sighs about working late for someone who doesn't know she comes in late every single morning and spends hours taking personal calls during the workday.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sara, is it your birthday??
You know, I would love it if my mother would lock the door. So then we wouldn't have situations like the guy running for alderman walking directly into the house.

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

What the..? I swear our seasons are going all askew.
