The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I didn't do mine last week because I took the day off/worked from home the day they were due because of Perkins, so now they are twice as gross.

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

I didn't do mine because I'm a slackery slacker. I have no good reasons. I just suck. I'm good with just about every deadline except that one, strangely. Even the other boring ones.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Well, technically they should have been done before them, but they weren't, because I suck and put them off.

Well, fooey. They're not sending us home at 2 after all, because the protest & march are supposed to leave the area by 3 or so.

hip deep in pie

I was just writing a post to complain that I called my mortgage company today and they hadn't returned my call, when they called. I was calling to see if they could give me a better rate on renewing than they had offered me. The consultant had to put me on hold for a couple of minutes. The hold music, I swear, was a jazz version of Pink Floyd's Money.

The good news is that they matched the rate the broker offered me. Now I'm left wondering if I could have got even better. Anyway it's still not as good as the sweet, sweet rate I have now.

I don't have a legal filesharing tool. At least not at work. If I need to send someone a file larger than 5MB, I have to burn a CD.

Consuela, have you tried yousendit.com? That's what I use at work when we don't want to use either our or a client company's FTP site. I think the free accounts have a limit well above 5MB per upload, and 2GB total if I'm remembering correctly from before we went the paid option.

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

When we were the 800lb gorilla company, we couldn't get to any filesharing web site of note. Now that we're smaller and more flexible, they're not spending much money or effort keeping us away from anything, but there's always the threat of monitoring hanging over our heads. Hell, they took away internal IM because the CIO wasn't getting a representative sampling of our messages to read.

We are not allowed to use filesharing sites. Period. I have a hell of a time even getting into some of our contractors' FTP sites, because our security wall keeps blocking them.
