I am also in the do not want to work today corner. Alas I am sitting on a laptop in a mini-golf construction sight configuring network devices.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Also do not wanna!
I asked about a pay thing at work that I should get, but asking for money is hard and it was awkward. Still I did it and should get it and I think it will cover work I need done on my car.

I am tired of deploying my disappointing talent for cussing people out without actually cussing...it is a gift, but also a booby prize.(Not as tired as I am of having people hear me curse and think it is the first time for I'm a Broken Hummel Figurine Under Duress, but that didn't come up in my weekly visit with my representative's voice mail. Still, gets old.)

Go, you, msbelle!
Wow, 1997! I haven't had the privilege for that long, but that is amazing. I wish I knew what year I started lurking. And how I got here. I think there was a link in some article or blog or something, but I just can't remember specifics. I know I started posting during the Quote-off. Man, that was fun!

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

Ahhh, the quote deathmatch! I used to put a lot of energy into doing those.
We even had a phrase for when a quote lost because I ran a match during some time zone's lunch lull. I think we used Principle Snyder's "spazzed."
Like, "That quote got spazzed because Halifax was all out to lunch!"
We made our own fun.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I am supposed to present an award in a few hours so I'm trying to jot down some notes. I'm hoping some loose bullet points will give me a coherent enough through-line without resorting to reading a speech. Public speaking is very much not my wheelhouse.

I’m so sorry to hear about Todd.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I wish I knew what year I started lurking.
LA F2F although I don't recall the year. Well, I never really lurked. I *think* I found Buff Diving and then finding the Board that night or the next day.

Yeah, I found the board a little bit before the LA F2F
