I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I'm having a hard time concentrating today.

Is it because the whole internet now thinks "Wait, Wait, Don't Eat Me" is brilliant?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh phew -- my coworker finally had her baby this morning! Hilariously, our boss texted her about some work issue and she wrote back, "Just had a baby, can I get back to you?"

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

I hate my new desk! New Guy sits in back of me and there's no divider! No more sneaking io9 all the time for me.

oh, that's a bummer. Now, you're all torn about wanting him to be there. I hate people behind me.

Trust my rage

I'm at my interview. I've been waiting 30 minutes. Apparently one of the attorneys isn't here.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think I have every symptom of the flu, cold and other viruses I could possibly get. Ready to get over this.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Well, yes, there's that and the batshit crazy energy when you get near each other.

No use denying that. We feed off each other like toddlers on Pixie Stix.

Yes, yes we do. HAI THAR MAI TWINZ! Ahem. Soooo, you coming back out here when MCR goes back on tour??

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Like new guy pays attention to anything.

So the CEO has put out our Vision for 2010. And everyone must bask in its brilliance. Someone came around to each cubicle to hang up a sheet listing the company goals. There are three and a half walls in my cubicle, one with shelves, one behind my monitor where items I need for phone calls hang, and the other one to the left of me. She wanted to hang this bit of corporate-speak with my job-essential stuff, and I asked her to hang it on the wall to the left, next to the cartoons and the incidentally important stuff.

"Will you be able to see it?" she asked anxiously.

"I can see all my walls," I assured her.

It's a cubicle, not the Palace of Versailles.
