My mother is being released any minute now. And Jesus, she's a terrible patient. I think we're all going to need a crankiness-related nap this afternoon.
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

How is it legal for someone to withhold money from your paycheck that you did not authorize?

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

I don't know. He emailed me back in December proposing the additional withholding and I emailed him back basically saying, "Why? Things are OK the way they are." That was it.
I think I'll ask my boss for a loan to make it through the month

Naps! Take all the naps, Dana. My weekend plans right now are napping and comfort TV marathons.

tommy - I'd be concerned he had done this to other employees also.

I'd make very very very sure the money went to withholdings and not some caribbean vacation fund or up the accountant's nose….

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Speaking of how do things happen, I apparently accidentally ordered a new laptop for my new hire, which wasn't in the departmental budget. I went back to see what I had done, and what I had written on the requisition form was: (desk currently has a desktop -- is there a laptop that could be used instead?) with no budget codes or anything! WTF, IT dude?

ION, apple pumpkin bread and ginger tea don't go together very well.
eta: OK, I think I oversteeped the tea.
