I once had my high school newspaper advisor throw a chair in my general direction.

I wasn't there when it started, just came running out of the office in time to see the chair thrown. Which is impressive, because our chairs are sturdy and quite heavy. A purse was also thrown, sort of as the lact action as security was breaking things up. A second chair was hefted but not thrown.
The library was as quiet as I've seen it in a looong time for about an hour after the chair-throwing girl fight. But now it's back to low-key evening normal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
YOU GUYS! I forgot to post the best thing! The bakery by work (where I mostly get salads....) has dirty Valentine's cookies, in the display case with a paper towel over them. So I asked to see them -- I kind of figured the dirtiness was a joke. But NO! It is literally heart-shaped cookies with "lick my clit" and "eat my ass" on them! I laughed.

Wow, flea!
Different wow, Jesse!

That is amazing and awesome, Jesse! I love that they're covered with a paper towel?!?
Starting work at 630 meant I was done at 230. I read for a while, took a shower, went to the post office, and now I'm bored. Should probably go work out but am at the local beer place drinking kombucha and waiting for the food truck to show up, because the sandwiches look delicious on the website.

I wasn't able to arrange any Fat Tuesday shenanigans with my best friend and the Mrs. since work interfered, but I'm about to go home to dress up and head over to the Mardi Gras party at the fine dining restaurant down the street and enjoy crawfish etouffee and Creole cabbage rolls.

I've got $500 worth of boxes being delivered from Ikea tomorrow, but this was the best purchase.
The rest of my week will be big jigsaw puzzles. I love jigsaw puzzles.

This morning my manager asked me to think about whether I wanted to move into program management or people management. I have no idea if I'd be good at people management?!
YOU GUYS! I forgot to post the best thing!
Ha ha! Now I want dirty cookies! I guess I will settle for the 8 1/2 boxes of Girl Scout cookies I have, though.
(sick time when you've been placed on a PIP seems like a bad idea)
Ugh, I'm sorry that you've been placed on a PIP, Atropa.
