There's a company here in town where the supervisors ride bicycles through the cubicle areas. It's supposed to be cool and funky and everyone I ask seems horrified when I make the comparison to the overseer on his horse riding through the cotton fields.

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

Yikes, chrismg! Does your apartment building have a manager that you can talk to?
In less fiery news, I have to write and submit my performance evaluation today, and shockingly I have zero desire to do the thing. How do I make myself do the thing?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OH! I just talked to my boss, and no wonder I've been confused about what she wants. I did not have a key piece of information! JFC.

Sadly, shrift, the only thing that has ever made me willing to write performance evaluations is alcohol. Which can lead to me saying things I really shouldn't. You might try alcohol for the writing of it and then proofing/editing later when stone, cold sober.

I'm so glad that you're OK, chrismg. Don't throw out any of the damaged CDs yet, you should be able to document which ones were damaged and I expect there will be a way to get compensated for them.
I've yet to have an insurance claim for my house (thank goodness) but my experience with having three cars totalled (none of them my fault BTW) is that insurance companies here in MA are pretty good about setting up the process. Fingers crossed.

The weather is making me feel too groggy to even want alcohol. But I've started my evaluation. Maybe I'll reward myself with Last Week Tonight or Brooklyn Nine-Nine if I finish it before the deadline.
