Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

My boss sent us a last minute "quick update" call request. We are all on and waiting for her to join...wondering wtf this is aboht. My bet is she's quitting.

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

Meep, good luck with that, meara. I hate those "quick meetings" with no agenda

Our wings are not tired.

I sleep with a mouthguard, but lately I need to either wear it during the day or keep my tongue between my teeth to keep from grinding. Or eat, which isn't working out too well.

Yeah. Wearing it during the day is not a terrible option if it helps.

Hey there birthday goth, how is your day going?

Hmm, nope! Meeting was about how they're changing one of the other positions at the company and what they're responsible for. But I don't think it'll actually affect my project much.

Busy, because work deadlines wait for no birthdays. But other than that, it's good! Lots of people have wished me happy things, Pete spoiled me with goodies, and we're going out to dinner tonight.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm always sad for people who have to work on their birthdays.

Good luck, David!

Oh, that's even weirder/more annoying -- a last minute "quick meeting" that DOESN'T change anything significant? Feels like high blood pressure for no reason to me.

I basically do the second one all the time.

To make my life complete, my office is having a team building thing on Friday. Our head person let something drop and I've figured out that it's going to be one of those locked room deals.

At least one of my team members is DYING to do one of those. I'm kind of into it, but apparently not enough to actually schedule it!

Guess it's time for Bring a Chainsaw to Work Day.
