OMG, mortifying -- I forgot to put my former team member's departure in the internal newsletter, and then I just sent the facts to the person who sends it out, and she just put it right in! Alongside everyone else's dramatic notes about how amazing their leaving people are and what great things they are going to do! So now I am late and also uncaring. Awesome.
Hey! What a surprise! Hostile 17! Can I get you a drink, Hostile 17?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Uh oh Jesse. Now you've made the work environment even more emotionally unsafe for people who miss that employee!!!

I KNOW! I'm literally going to have to proactively talk to one of them this afternoon so she knows.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
ABC has also brought back The Gong Show? Hosted by Mike Myers, but Mike Myers in makeup playing a different non-existent person?
At least they have a built-in way to cancel themselves!
So now I am late and also uncaring. Awesome.
At least some of the blame has to go to Email Sender Who Copy-Pasted Without Thinking though, right?

I mean, maybe? I guess better bosses know to send their heartfelt best wishes upfront.
What's killing me is that my best wishes are heartfelt!!

I thought I remembered there was a Buffista in Halifax, but I couldn't remember who.
Elena, who no longer visits here, is in Halifax.

OK, thanks Connie.
Hold on until you've been through a long airport security line once the vacation has started before cementing that opinion, Calli.
I will have to go through customs each way.

I'm getting in Saturday evening and leaving Wednesday morning. I'm meeting up with an old college friend while I'm there. She lives one state over, and we sort of planned the trip via Twitter DMs.
I'm rather excited. It looks like there's a ton to do in Halifax, and we'll be catching part of the Busker's festival as well as multiple chances to catch fireworks. We're also taking some sort of harbor sailing cruise on Monday, which looks like the one full day that we'll be there when there'll also be sun.
