bad week, man.
Yeah, we're building a race of frog-people. It's a good time

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Seriously.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am seriously pissed about this Alan Rickman thing. Well, more about mortality in general.

Unrelated: so if someone copies me on an email to someone else asking for info, I know the someone else is in a meeting but I have the info so I Reply-All with it, an hour later the someone else replies-all with the same information in a slightly different format and the original sender thanks her - I probably shouldn't take that personally, right? I'm just, like, fragile this morning.

It's very angry-making, Dana. I have had enough if it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, don't take that personally, -t. Among so many other things, you know people don't manage their in-boxes properly.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My reaction was "VENDETTA! Salt in their coffee!!! Install Windows ME on their computer!!!"
...because I work from home and have no human contact, so a little office drama sounds fun.

Sigh. Not only did I not win the powerball, I didn't even match a single number, in the five tickets I had. I mean, $10 down the drain is far from a financial burden, it's worth it to dream, but yeesh!
I had no real hopes of winning, the tickets I purchased were protection against a case of the What If?s that I'd have gotten if I didn't buy any at all.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
About 15-20 years ago Powerball or something like it had a record value. My bosses and coworkers all went in together to buy some tickets. I joined in, but it was out of fear of having everyone else win and my bosses folding up the company that motivated me to do it. That's the only time I've played the lottery.
