Go Scrappy! Is this for the porn-o-rama?
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck! Burn, Scrappy, burn -- Scrappy inferno!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Go, Scrappy!Hireability ho!

So what was billed in the appointment for this afternoon as an end of year staff meeting is actually a one on one meeting with my director. My coworker and I only figured this out when we started arguing about the start time for the "staff meeting" and checked out individual appointments. Clearly communication is something I should bring up as an issue.
I am feeling a little bit blindsided.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
It's for a large real estate company which I actually really liked on my first interview. My first choice is Sony--I go in there on Monday.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Nothing is faster than the speed of light. Except now we know quantum entanglement trumps that. Wow.
A team of Chinese physicists have clocked the speed of spooky action at a distance — the seemingly instantaneous interaction between entangled quantum particles — at more than four orders of magnitude faster than light. Their equipment and methodology doesn’t allow for an exact speed, but four orders of magnitude puts the figure at around 3 trillion meters per second.
Spooky action at a distance was a term coined by Einstein to describe how entangled quantum particles seem to interact with each other instantaneously, over any distance, breaking the speed of light and thus relativity. As of our current understanding of quantum mechanics, though, it is impossible to send data using quantum entanglement, preserving the theory of relativity. A lot of work is being done in this area, though, and some physicists believe that faster-than-light communication might be possible with some clever manipulation of entangled particles.

Woohoo, I finally got a link to the pictures from Brenda and my boat trip! I bought a CD of the pictures at the end of the trip, but when I got home it was blank (she was burning it as I stood there, so I know it wasn't intentional), but they finally emailed me pictures. Sadly, they are not nearly as awesome as I would've thought, mostly--she had a really nice camera, and was taking lots of photos, but most of them aren't much better than mine with my basic point and shoot! Sad.

Good luck, Scrappy!
