I just had an hour conference call from home on speakerphone and the phone's battery was only down one bar. Thank you, Perkins. Not living on the edge like with the previous phone.
Now off to office.
Yeah... That went well.

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

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

Happy birthday, Suzi!!
In less happy news, I just learned they probably won't be interviewing for the new position I want (in another group, thank dog) as soon as I'd like. Which means I have to keep playing nice and probably agree to yet another business trip.
The upside: I may be in MD the last weekend in February if DC/Baltimore peeps are around.

Dear People,
If you do not come to the meeting, we decide when your stuff will happen. If you want a say, you have to show up.
Which is to say, we discussed that request 2 weeks ago and decided it wasn't a priority. Sorry.
No I'm not,
Me

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am sooo sleeeepy. For no good reason. I need to perk up before my Big Boss meeting!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Facebook lies like an SOB about "new" posts on their feed. I do love redesigns that make things less functional.

OK, I was just noticing that Dana. I have had the same "New" status at the top of my live feed since this am!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It's not really Tim Burton's movie, though. He just produced it.
I've got a British magazine from 1962 and the society page covering a benefit event has the best batch of uber-British names.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Miss Lorna Dingwall-Main
That sounds like a porn name. "I grew up on the corner of Dingwall and Main, with my little dog Lorna".
