I love it when I get an email from someone I have never had contact with before asking me for information I have given someone else in their organization several times, and when I reply to them I get an OOO bounceback. Such a worthwhile use of my time.
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

Work will either be dead because no one's getting work until the first of the year, or it will be hellaciously busy because of all the work they've put off that's due by the end of the year.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Work is hilariously busy, and I can already tell it ain't all getting done. Not by me, anyway.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Very slow here today. All of my work is on other people's desks.
And just about everyone is out this week. As in, I'm de facto in charge of the division because I'm the senior person here. I have let power go to my head by turning up the radio in my office.

I'm in the office today, along with about 1/4 the usual staff. I'm getting a fair bit done, actually, which is nice. But I miss my coworkers.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Condolences to all who are at work today. I on the other hand got up at 8 and am hoping to spend the day addressing holiday cards (since Xmas is already past) and clearing through some boxes. At some point this week we need to call AAA to jumpstart the van as it is packed to the gills with items to donate.

My flight to Chicago has been cancelled because we're getting freezing rain. I'm waiting for the airline to call me back so I can get any rebooking info, so I just emailed my work team that I probably won't be working tomorrow after all.

Travel weather this year is counterintuitively suckier than usual this year.
One round of errands done, second load of laundry in. Unpacked. As soon as the first load comes out of the dryer, I'll go foraging for food.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Travel weather this year is counterintuitively suckier than usual this year.
A friend who lives in Kansas City was in Pensacola last week and is still there because his flights home keep getting cancelled. He was going to drive over to Biloxi to visit a friend, but apparently there was a threat of tornadoes there, so he's just staying put in Pensacola (which isn't the worst thing in the world).
