Yeah, I only get the "send a response y/n?" thing if im declining (at which point I might write back that I'm on vacation that day or whatever--and if it's a one on one meeting suggest a different time)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm Outlook-challenged, because I don't ever use it.

I envy you.

Because books.

I envy you.

Working for yourself has some benefits!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Apparently, we're "upgrading" from Entourage to Outlook, and the rest of the new (not so new now, I guess) Office. More and more people have it, but still not me!

Jesse's e-mail wants to hug it out.

I have to say, I don't understand how that became that show's catchphrase in the general culture. Doesn't he actually say it like once? Or is that what gets cut when I watch it on Comedy Central reruns?

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

Hmm. I'm not filling out your help desk feedback form unless you tell me if it's anonymous or not. FYI.

Look at this kiss. Kisses. OMG, this is why you need practice. Hell, I didn't practice much before my first public tonsil-licking. I hope I wasn't that bad.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

We had a two-hour meeting, mostly on process (the only thing that made it bearable was the pastries). I feel for my poor boss: he's trying to roll a log uphill (in terms of standardizing processes, work-tracking, and so forth). But he's in uniform, which means he's only got about 2 years in this slot, and then he'll move on and the next guy will ignore all his changes. And the civilians will still be here.

I... might be. I just got told (a) I don't get a second monitor like the rest of the staff because I'm a contractor; and (b) they probably won't announce my position until after the holidays.

Not enough facepalm in the world.

He offered to hug it out a few times, but I think it was only "hug it out, you little bitch!" the one time.(The things I know...sheesh.) As to its place in the zeitgeist, funny as that moment was, especially not expecting it, beats the hell out of me. Gary Busey's guest spot was totally funnier, as was the takedown of "Joshie" Weinstein as a "lightweight, pen-stealing, fuckface."

I'm just saying -- before I started watching, I really thought that was going to be the punchline of half the scenes!
