this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, shit. Yet ANOTHER shooting today. Seriously, WTF is wrong with people?

I can just see the headlines: Christian Opens Fire in Office Building.

Well, right? I mean, if it's so important that the Major who was the gunman at Ft. Hood is Muslim, then SURELY the religion of today's shooter is important, too! Right?

(Not that I know he's a Christian, but just by playing the odds, he probably is.)

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

Make Cookies in 90 Seconds with Your Waffle Iron

Oooh. I like it. Not having to turn on my oven in the summer is always good, and cookieless summers are nobody's friend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Interoffice IM is great for gossiping about co-workers you don't want to talk about out loud. Er, I mean collaborating on projects.

Right on. Kind of like this here, I am all for non-work that looks the same as working! (I.e., sitting at your desk, typing on the computer.)

I can see many a college student taking advantage of this.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, man. Now I want a cookie.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Comic-Con 4-day passes are sold out! That's insane.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I would really like my boss to open his office door so I can talk to him about the project plan and status updates that just landed in my lap. I know he's going to come out of his office at noon and wonder where I am. Making sure I only work 40 hours this week, is where. Gotta leave then because of the one o'clock meeting.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I was wondering why I hadn't heard anything from my boss today--turns out that she's off. Since she usually works from the city office, I don't see her every day, but she usually send an e-mail out telling us that she's taking pto the next day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am so full and sleepy from Cheesecake Factory for lunch, but happy about it!

Now my working-from-home problem is that I don't really have to do anything this afternoon, but stuff does have to get done by Monday. So I could blow off the rest of today, but then would be working on the weekend. Hmmmmm.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Jesse, for whatever it is or isn't worth, I'm a firm believer in the weekend as time off unless absolutely necessary.
