Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Oh god, they're talking about a team summit where our global team would meet up. 4 days, probably 8-6 each day. Those would be...long days.

We do these at work twice a year, and by noon of the third day, I'm nearly homicidal with overload. Every. Single. Time.

Maybe suggest Thunderdome as a team-building exercise next time around?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm pondering whether to volunteer as a moderator to keep things on track, because it is not one of my boss's strengths, and if we spend four days talking in circles, I will go mental.

Interesting. Husband's prospective employer will not budge on vacation, but the HR person basically invited him to negotiate on salary.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Dana, is this a local job or would you need to relocate?

The offer letter is SIGNED.

I would relax, except apparently we have to go buy a car tonight. Long story.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Well damn. Big day for the Dana household!

Also, I got about five hours of sleep last night. Me me me.

How is everyone else's life? Theo, how did your roommate's surgery go?
