Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

move out and draw fire

I just found out that my new company gives us the 31st as a holiday as well as the 1st, so yay! But we don't get Inauguration Day (although it's a federal holiday so DC will be basically shut down)...at least I can "go to work" in my PJs that day.

That's nice Volans! We've occasionally gotten the 31st but only if it's like, a Friday or Monday? I'm wondering what holidays we'll get this year--last year we got MLK for the first time, instead of "Spring Holiday" which was always Good Friday. Not sure if that'll continue this year, though I feel like they ought to, given the current climate...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm hoping billytea comes through to assure the rest of us that 2021 has, indeed, arrived.....

Ooh yes. Please, Australians, tell us it’s over?

Australian friends of friends on FB said something about lemurs taking over the world, which does sound like an improvement. Would like confirmation.

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

Work gave us day after T'Day and Christmas Eve as extra days off, which was so nice, but now I am MIFFED that we did not also get today off. Why HELLLO there Gifthorse, what a lovely mouth you have. I can be an ungrateful bitch.

In that same vein, I was annoyed with the parents for buying me a Roomba when I had asked for a different robot vacuum. See? ungrateful. Well I had a talking with myself and said, "SELF! get over it, YOU HAVE A ROBOT VACUUM!!" and so I straightened and pied floor clutter up off the floor and have run it THRICE and the first floor is dustbunny free and I sat and worked while it was running. LIVING IN THE FUTURE!!

Now tagless for your comfort.

That sounds like something The Container Store would love to help you with

I consider The Container Store as the Atheist's version of Heaven. I want to go there when I die.

What is even happening?

Look at Cashmere trying to tempt me from the path of righteousness.

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

Oh wow that would be so nice.
