Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

To sum up: I am a complete asshole when buying a car.

Also, I bought a car. 2013 Mazda2

More later. Going to go turn in my old title.

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

Congrats on the new car, sarameg. I say go celebrate with your neighbors and a bottle of wine.

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

Here is the important question, sarameg: what color? (also, congrats on the new vehicle)

Brava, sarameg!

As a final example of how fubar my employers are, I just got a call from my actual legal employer (the contracting firm): apparently the period of performance on my contract ends TODAY.

As in, no point in coming in tomorrow, I won't get paid for it.

That's kind of awesome.

That which does not kill you should RUN

Consuela, every time I think your job can't get more screwy, it does, even at the end. I feel like you aren't going to make it out the door at quitting time today without a cow falling out of the ceiling tiles.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also, I bought a car. 2013 Mazda2

Congrats, sarameg. The Mazda 2 is cute!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

At the financial firm where I work, they're fairly adamant about the difference between adviser and advisor. I'm not sure if it's a style thing or if there's some regulatory reason behind it.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal

I think you should dedicate that song by Cee Lo to them. (one of my favorite You-Tubes is "Fuck You" narrated in ASL.)

Which is?
