Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Because 7 ate 9 OF COURSE.

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

Sorry about the work stuff, msbelle. I hope you find a new position soon, with people who treat you better.

I am reluctant to admit I might have seasonal allergies, but sneezing my way in to work every time it warms up just a bit suggests otherwise.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Wah, I am back at work. I am not pleased with this. (On the plus side, our team table is full of interns so I get to work in the kitchen today, which puts me much closer to the coffee.)

(My office has a really nice kitchen with a seating area, it's not like I'm sitting in the dishwasher.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, my coworker shaved his beard, and it's horrifying! Maybe I'll get used to it.

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

I went to BBAB the other day to get a CO2 refill for the Sodastream, and I handed the cashier my 20% off coupon. And he tut tutted and told me I should use a $5 off coupon instead (vs $3 off), and I explained this was all the couponage I had. I find it interesting that the staff doesn't expect me to pay full price for a $15 item, which is fair, because I pretty much never shop there without the right number of coupons in hand.

Banana Republic is becoming like that. No shopping unless at least 1 thing is 30% off, preferably most. If they're willing to have sales all the time, I'm willing to restructure the order in which I get things, so they know I'll at least check with them first. The arrangement works.

Because books.

I just almost fell down the stairs at work. I did a very strange sort of modern ballet and managed not to actually fall, but my back is sore where I pushed up against the wall.

Can I go home now?
