Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

FYI, the espresso cups that Starbucks is selling as ornaments hold less than 4 oz

That seems like it should be enough for espresso and yet 4 oz just doesn't seem like enough coffee on principle.

I am about 88% better from my cold but I am still waking up with my mouth tasting like the inside of Santa's boot. I've been gargling with salt water to kill it off.

In other exciting news, my debit card was compromised which I did not learn until I tried to buy papertowels yesterday and had to leave it all there at Walgreens and call my bank.

Now I have to get a new card, but it also means that things rigged up for automatic payment on that account now have to be re-done as well. What a pain!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Blasphemy! And yet, many espresso cups hold only 2-3 oz. As if anyone would ever want a SINGLE shot of espresso.

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

Ugh, Hec, such a hassle!

The department Keurig's smallest setting is 4 oz! Woes.

Happy birthdays to Jesse, Rayne, and Theo!

I'm supposed to be working Wed-Fri this week, although I may take a vacation day on Friday because things are very slow and I have little desire to do anything.

I've also had a little too much family togetherness, and thankfully my mom and dad were both out of the house today for a few hours so I could get some introvert recharging time.

In other exciting news, my debit card was compromised

Boo, hiss!

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday to Theo, Jessie and Rayne!

Looks like I don't have to do an annual performance review until 2020. Nice!

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

I left work a few minutes early. I was the only one still there and it is pouring down rain.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It is no fun on the road from Austin to Dallas.
