Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Do your shit on time, tell us when you cannot do your shit on time and really tell us when you can't do your shit at all.

I want to give everyone I work with a pretty little plaque with this engraved on it.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Or possibly that could be an embroidery project. I have recipients in mind.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Watching some Eighties music videos. Some observations:

The full-length version of Michael Jackson's Bad is pretty hilarious.

Lionel Richie singing "Hello, is it me you're looking for?" to a blind woman is kind of insensitive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You know how we're kind of an umbrella? One of the companies we're an umbrella for is on the 13th floor. So, sometimes their visitors mandate business formal. However, the Marketing group on 12 also does have the odd person that means us on 11 dress up and pretend anyone gives a fuck. It's exasperating, but they're always recruiting more of the smaller companies that make up the larger company we're the umbrella for. Or individuals. Who seem to like ties.

OK, that sounds even sillier than my old job, when we were required to suit up for Board meetings AND asked to come in early and not leave our desks, so we didn't walk by the Board meeting.

Lionel Richie singing "Hello, is it me you're looking for?" to a blind woman is kind of insensitive.

He can see it in her eyes.

Cheese grits! For reals!

And random snowflakes and birds puffed up and refusing to budge even when you stray too close. But no storms this weekend. Odd.

My niece only knows that song from Community. She likes it without irony.

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

Timelies all!

Eighties music videos are often quite ridiculous. Flew Jet Blue(which offers Direct TV) to Boskone and was watching VH1 Classic, which airs such videos. It was a Heart video(What About Love, I think) that made me nudge Gary and say "This is sooo 80s".

And yet, this was the stuff I wanted to watch as a teenager.

No doubt. And Britta, I'm sure. I got this second-hand from my sister, I really want to sit down and talk TV with my niece, now. We seem to have very similar taste and she has some interesting opinions and insights. And a habit of introducing my sister to a series with a good but atypical episode - Pillows and Blankets and Once More With Feeling for example.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

For some reason I can no longer recall, I had a great need a couple days ago to introduce Franny to "Our Lips Are Sealed." Turns out certain video themes from the 80s still ding me, and one of them is bands/singers driving around LA.
