My corporate laptop is crazy-making. I can't log onto the network with it, but I can log onto the network on any other corporate laptop. Fortunately, I almost never have any need to use it.
Zoe: Captain will come up with a plan. Kaylee: That's good. Right? Zoe: Possibly you're not recalling some of his previous plans.

From over the cubicle wall, a general discussion of manliness: "He's eating chicken jerky--with tissues!" followed by a disapproving chorus of "Dude . . ."
In the breakroom downstairs: "I wish I could grow a beard." "Dude . . . you can't grow a beard?" "Dude, I can grow a beard, but it gets so scratchy." "You grow out of that stage!" "Yeah, but . . . my face gets claustrophobic." ". . . Claustrophobic?" "I'm not as tough as you guys, OK?" "We could have told you that."

I'm in constant need, Gud. But so far today...so good. Knock on wood.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Connie, that's funny. Poor Dude.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm in a ReadyTalk work conference, but I cannot connect via the phone. So I can see their screen and hear everything (through the computer) they're saying, but I can't give any input (which is fine by me).
But I sent an email to the facilitator saying "I can't connect via phone, but I have ReadyTalk open and I can see and hear everything you're doing." When the facilitator read the email, she said "Stephanie, you connected by phone, but can't see the screen, is that correct?" [silence on my end] [obviously] "Stephanie?"
Seriously, they took the exact opposite from my email that I meant. Jesus.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Wow, Tep. A metaphor for our times.

I eventually got through on the phone, but it was pointless, because the part of the demonstration that affected the freelancers was about 7 minutes of the whole damn thing. Yawn.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Congrats on the new job, Jesse!
I love my job, but I might take a pay cut for a shorter commute. 1:30+ each way is pretty draining.

Wow, Jess, that's a very long commute. Do you ever get to work from home? How long was the commute before you moved?
I am so spoiled, I don't think I could go back to working in an office.
