Eeep, be careful Jesse. I looked pretty funny walking when I was up north. Each and every step deliberate. But I didn't fall!
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I must remember that last week's feedback session was much worse, which may help me refrain from wishing a cartoon anvil would drop on my coworker's head.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I feel like "not worse" than last week's session is not a high enough bar, and cartoon anvils may still be appropriate.
I just said to my coworker that I don't have enough time to be at work this week, and she suggested taking Friday off! Brilliant! I really don't think I'm going to have anything to do that day anyway, work-wise, and as she pointed out, I can do some stuff from home if there's anything that's actually urgent.

My unit's director brought in Bailey's-laced chocolate truffles. All is forgiven. Not that I have a lot to forgive him for. He's actually building up a fair bit of credit.

I went back to sleep for a bit after my meeting ended. I am less homicidal. (Also, there may have been doughnuts.)

Hooray for non-homicidal doughnuts!

I'm off FB for the week per NAACP boycot, I may be even chattier than usual. Be warned.

Yay doughnuts!
The boycott is a full week? Dang I didn't notice that somehow, I thought it was a day.

I didn't know about the NAACP thing at all, but it looks like just today, which means I already didn't comply at all. Ooops.

Yeah, I didn't know about the NAACP boycott, either. Sorry. I don't usually cross picket lines.
