Excitement I didn't need this morning! Got into the office this morning and my boss turns to me and says. "There's something weird going on with the network, and it says your account has been deactivated." I try to log in, and yep, I don't exist.

Run to IT and they reassure me that there is something going on company-wide, there's 500+ employees with the same disturbing issue, and they're working on it. My skip-skip level big boss was standing there, and he said, "Yeah, don't worry about it. Oh right, you're a Microsoft vet, I get why a message that your account was deactivated on a Friday would freak you out."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

YIKES!

Everyone's account has now been reactivated, and I am still gainfully employed!

Our wings are not tired.

Phew! I get calls from users with such issues from time to time and tell them they can go home early, but they know me well enough that they don't believe me.

Sophia, I hope you get a quick and reasonable quote.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That would be so scary!

I just met with one of my freshman, and I really want to get this kid off the track I think he thinks he needs to be on. He is miserable in most of his classes, and planning for more misery! I just don't think that is necessary. You can still get a good job taking classes you like!

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

Aw, I hope he can hear that from you, Jesse!

Yikes, Atropa!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Ok guys, I have been talking to msbelle and she has encouraged me to ask. Right now the estimate is 1142, which I can cover, just barely. But I am going to need a new bed, probably another dumpster, and cleaning supplies, and also I was saving this money for a cat spay so if you want to kick in a bit, I am ok. My PayPal addy is nbrookstaylor@gmail.com. Please do not give if you yourself are struggling. This is doable for me, even if a struggle. Just talking to you guys has been so helpful!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Thank you for asking, and for letting us help. I'm going to hit up PayPal in just a minute. (Thank the AMA for slamming me with work and therefore large invoices.)

Aw, thanks, Sophia! I was going to offer to collect and send you one large amount, so if anyone wants to do that, too, I am here for it! My paypal address is my yahoo email.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Mr. S came home with a bottle of nail polish in his backpack. I suspect he took it from the nanny. He wanted to put it on his nails, and got upset when I told him he couldn't because it wasn't his. This child :shakes head:
