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

Oh, man, my company is using a different format for our Halloween costume contest. Instead of just gathering for a half hour or so at lunch time and seeing what everyone is wearing, we are supposed to submit a photo and they'll all be shown on TVs in the break room for a couple of hours and everyone who passes through will vote on their favorites. Which is all fine, but not very social, which is what I liked about previous years, since people have incorporated little performance-y things and whatnot. I didn't even notice until it was pointed out to me today that we are supposed to submit our photos by MONDAY.

This is not quite as against all sense as the "report your Random Acts of Kindness to get credit for this employee incentive program" thing (I just can't even with that), but it's pretty silly.

Wait, you have to submit a photo before Halloween? Do you have to then dress up again on Halloween?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Am I listening to a meeting where my coworker and a PM go round in circles? Or am I reading Venom fic which may or may not involve tentacles?

Why not both?

Tastes great! Less filling!

Conveniently, that's also the motto of Venom/Eddie shippers.

This. Also, grrr. Not really so much a fun and playful event.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Jesse, if you want to text with Red2Blue here is a link to get set up. They are much more organized and together than the group I am texting with today.

Exactly! I don't know who thought this was a good idea.

Thanks, msbelle. I've actually enjoyed getting the texts I've had so far. (8 of them!) So I signed up. I am in a pretty blue district so I am happy to be assigned to a more purple or red one.

Ha, just got an email that they are extending the deadline to submit photos to Halloween morning. Somebody must have complained.

Well fuck. Twelve weeks is the verdict. Which is January before I can even START putting weight on it. Which means I can't drive for even longer. Fuck.
