'Hell Bound'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Morning. ::yawn::
I gotta put down the keyboard and clean today, as we are having overnight houseguests tomorrow. Strangely enough, they are people from OTHER PARTS OF THE INTERNET.
Guys, it's true: they exist. And some of them are nice and smart, even!
But I gotta clean the bathroom and dust and stuff...
What I really want to do? Go swimming and go to yoga.
Me too. Let's run away. The kids will be fine.
I am totally stressed out right now. Fortunately, all the people in my department are animal lovers, so they don't fault me for coming in late and leaving early, but I hate doing it because I'm the supervisor.
I need to move the crib out and we were going to give it to a friend, except now drop side cribs are verboten. So maybe not?
Most drop-side cribs can be configured to not drop. (We accepted a hand-me-down drop-side crib for Aeryn because the alternative was spending money we didn't have. So there's also that.)
Soylent Green is other people!!!!
And Jesse has met them.
I need a doppelganger.
What it was an Evil!Sparky who gave everybody a Needs Improvement on their review, grilled the candidate mercilessly, and tracks down and slaps everybody who called on the Sass phone with false leads and mean prank calls?
Kat, I'm so sorry it took me so long to give it to him. If it's any consolation, I think now was possibly the best time for him to receive it, she says sheepishly.
You know when you've got an important but very technical thing to communicate to a client, and your sales and marketing types are all "Help us understand this highly technical piece of information! And then make the information exciting! Make it sparkle!"
Yeah, I don't know how to make it SPARKLE, people. You keep telling me to make it shiny, but nobody's giving me any solid feedback on how to make boring and technical shit unicorns and rainbows!
Maybe these will help: [link]
Tom, at this point I totally would draw an interpretive ppt slide in glitter pen if I had any idea how to format and present this information.

Oh, ita, no apology necessary at all. I had forgotten about it (and when I think about it, I think about the one I made for my friend David who just died this spring which makes me sad) Why was this time a better time?
Sparky, I'm going swimming. Obligations be damned.
OMG, such a clusterfuck just now. I was waiting for a document coming by courier that I had to sign and send back with the courier. They took it at 10am, but hadn't gotten here by 12:15 when I went to get lunch. So then my coworker talked me into to sitting down to eat, because we have Things To Discuss, and of course the courier got here at 12:16. Luckily, he waited around, and another coworker brought it up to my office right when I got back, and I signed the stuff and gave it back. But ugh! I should have come right back to my desk with my sandwich!
