Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

We love you too.

ION, it's time to write quarterly goals, and the only ones that come to mind are "Survive this deadline even though the PTB cut two weeks from it", "Survive this deadline without killing my project managers", and "Improve my body disposal skills". Somehow, I don't think my boss will approve those.

Those sound like excellent goals!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

It's nice to be able to crowd-source wisdom. It aggregates nicely.

Wisdom of the crowd, for real.

Heh. I overheard a co-worker asking a question about one of my old accounts to someone who didn't know what she was talking about, so I darted over there to get everyone on the same page and got to literally say "since I'm not over there any more no one knows how this works", which was pretty satisfying.

Then I picked up what I thought was a double chocolate muffin that I think is actually bran, so, on balance, still Monday.

Dear G-D in heaven, some of the Kids On Tumblr have decided that embedding autoplay music on their pages is a great idea.

Campbell's Jazzy Jambalaya is not great. Taste is ok, but it is definitely soup. I would call it disappointing, but it's about what I expected. I don't know why I felt compelled to try it, but if that tiny chance that it was good had paid off I would have been pretty excited.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Actual words my mother said to me last week: "I'm so disappointed with those pumpkin muffins [friend] made! I thought those were raisins, but they are chocolate chips!"

What the actual fuck? I mean, I like a good raisin, but who wouldn't rather have chocolate? My mother, apparently.

I have to admit, I find chocolate in pumpkin a little weird. I don't mind it when I eat it, but I find it conceptually dissonant somehow.

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

I'm sure your mother is a lovely person, Jesse, but she's clearly on the wrong side when it comes to pumpkin muffins.

So I keep getting feedback about Friday, and it's still all in the good category. So that's good. But I am also reminding myself that people who were unimpressed with me are not likely to say so to my face.
