Carpooled with my husband this morning, which meant I had to get up early. Arrived at his office, and he realized he'd forgotten his badge. Now I have no car, and he was late for work.

For breakfast, I had a Luna Bar, some pretzel chips, and sugarless chocolate mints. It's going to be a day.

I love autumn! My one time in NY in Autumn was pretty great. I think the November weather thus far had been nicer than our July weather. Of course, I've probably just jinxed the rest of the month.

Yesterday there were some landscapers clearing the leaves from the housing that's across the road from me. Never mind that they were using leaf blowers at 8:30 AM on a holiday, the guy who was in the giant trailer they were using to haul all the leaves was having a ball throwing them up in the air and stomping them down.

Last night I wasn't really hungry so I just had granola. This morning I rode my bike to work, and I noticed my legs just didn't have the strength and stamina that they have had lately. This happened once before when I didn't eat a good meal the night before.

So if I have to box someone, I'll be sure to have a piece of steak beforehand....

It's a pity, since many of their t-shirts are really good quality and they are made in America by people paid a living wage, from what I understand.

Made in America & no sweat shops, yes, but I've always found the quality to be pretty shoddy. (Most of our corporate t-shirts are American Apparel and they fall apart the second time you wash them.)

overheard "The problem is nobody has a set of fucking balls to make a decision." - management level talking to someone outside our department. his door is open. he was not soft talking.

I am not that much of a prude, but outside of close groups who work together, that just is not ok work talk in my book. This is a pretty conservative workplace and he is just so out-of-line all the time.

Also, their sizing is crazy and, generally, got wayyyyyyy too small.

The deer in the DC area are the stupidest deer in the universe. I know this to be true because they think that East-West Highway is a fun place to play when they're not busy eating my mom's front lawn.

On Monday, one of them jumped into the lion enclosure at the National Zoo.

Perhaps inspired by Suicidal Bunnies?

Happy Birthday, Jessica!

I've had AA t-shirts only for kids, and they've been durable and true to size, both the regular jersey and the baby rib (for girls, and meant to be snugger). I got them as gifts, and can't bring myself to buy more, though.
