I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Excellent!

It was definitely one of those "some have the Evil Bunny Alliance thrust upon them" moments.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Yes, today is the Board's birthday. We started posting here on my father's 68th birthday, Sept 17, 2002. Makes it unlikely that I'll forget the date.

Egads, the Phoenix Board is old enough to drive. In the States, at least.

Nilly, it's good to see your post! I've thought of you often when wishing my colleagues Shana Tovah, which confuses them because they know I'm not Jewish. And then I have to explain what it is to have the Nilly-nature, and much delight and confusion results.

I hope you and your loved ones are happy and well.

That this sentence exists and makes sense delights me to no account

Nilly! Lovely to see you here! You have never ever offended me.

ION, my brother's family got a new puppy (named "twende", which means "let's go!" in Swahili), and they have NOT SHARED PHOTOS. I'm very upset with them.

A brief poll: is it or is it not a disinheriting offense to get a new puppy and not send your family photos of same puppy? I'm just saying.

I mean, I shared photos of a puppy I met for ten minutes this morning. It was my obligation to share them to the world!

So, familial responsibility is at least 20x greater.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm at the hospital for a minor procedure that I thought would be done by now, and the doctor isn't even here yet. I got here an hour ago. Why did they tell me to arrive early?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, Zen. That kind of thing always makes me crazy.

You would be well within your rights.

Nilly! And also juliana! And Cindy and Karl! It's nice to see old names around.

I am back at work and it is not ideal. Looking at my calendar, I'm not sure when I'm ever going to read the emails that came in while I was out for two days.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm back in the office for the first time since last Wednesday (Hurricane Flo). My route in was a bit circuitous due to flooding, but otherwise, things are fine. Better than expected, actually. My basement office suite has a history of flooding, but I guess they fixed the problem very well because 10–15" of rain didn't do a thing.

TCG came home with the biggest head of cabbage I have ever seen yesterday. It must weigh 5 lbs. another gift from a fellow employee. I have no idea what to do with it.

Because books.

Make a whole lot of coleslaw?

Hi, Nilly! It's always so lovely to see you here!

Zen, that's so irritating. But also the usual way of doctors, I've found.
