I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oh, JZ, I'm so sorry, honey.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Just read a NYT article about the weather in the Midwest, and, wow, I 100% assumed that the remark about it getting down to -60 degrees was an exaggeration. Yikes.

It's currently -25F in my hometown, which is just about as far south as you can go in Wisconsin and not be in Illinois. Wind chill -48F.

Meanwhile, 1.5 inches of slushy snow plus +14F equals a three-hour delay for the government in DC today. On the other hand, a lot of local school districts are closed.

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

We went from a 2-hour delay at 5am to school closed by 8am. There's no snow right now but it's supposed to start coming down by 1pm. I *hate* non-snow snow days!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'm so very sorry, jz. I'm glad you were able to reconnect.

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

Men! And their Sales.

There is a particular salesperson who happens to be male who is irritating me with his apparent inability to read emails but I tarring the whole mess of them with the same brush in my mind. For the moment. Sorry any Bufista salesmen if there are any.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My coworker is talking just to hear the sound of her voice. I am at the "uh-huh. uh-huh." stage of contributions.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I can't imagine how cold it must be. Stay warm, Buffistas.

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

I have a recent group of new hires who have been completely baffled by the process of providing documentation to get their spouses and/or children on insurance. I have looked st three different cases today and in each one there is an email that directs you to a website and provides login info. On the website there are links to letters that were sent out that outline very clearly what documents are needed and 2 ways to provide them.

THEY ARE JUST NOT READING THINGS!!!!
