I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Not recognizing the Shelleys isn't Millennial. It's just someone who needs an English lit refresher.

sj, I hope your ankle's problems are easily resolved.

Job~ma to Tim!

amyth, give me a buzz if you need a ride back home. They didn't let us out early per se, but everyone sort of collectively took a work from home day at noon. So I'm home.

Agreed! (Meant to write that earlier, but was so excited about getting a ride home from work, I forgot!)

I would love a ride, Calli! Anny said she'd get me, but she works a lot later than I do, especially today. Thanks! (I'll text you.)

Our wings are not tired.

I know we all aspire to be like Zenkitty and meara, but no more broken legs!

Nothing broken. No idea why it's swollen. Pretty much a waste of two hours of my life.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I thought this might cheer people up. Entertainment magazine did a photoshoot of Stephen Colbert dressed up as some LoTR characters ... I mean, how ELSE could we see Gandalf getting a NY cab?

Stay safe, everyone.

The HR person I am working on because of a bad thing just emailed to ask me for the names of everyone who works in my department who is of a certain race. I don't even know how to begin to answer that question - does she want me to guess? does she want me to ask them to self identify? doesn't she have the information if they chose to self identify at the time we signed them up for paychecks?

I'm going to ignore the question and hope it goes away. It's a managerial strategy I used to hesitate to apply, but now it's a favorite.
