I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is a good one! Thanks, Dana.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Man, one of my co-workers was waiting on another to bring her lunch, and the latter was out of the office until almost 3pm before checking in to see if she still wanted it. Luckily my afternoon soda run was to a place where I could pick her up one of those tuna & crackers packets and a candy bar. Who the hell takes a 2.5 hour lunch break when they've offered to bring takeout back for someone else?

I'm sorry, msbelle.

Zenkitty, I probably would have made the same call.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

{{{{msbelle}}}} Sorry for the suck day. I must inform you that lots of people already love you and have no intention of stopping, so you are way off schedule for this whole eternally-alone-and-unloved thing. I just wish we were actually physically right nearby. Stupid giant land mass in between us.

What the lovely JZ said so well.

My brain is depleted, but I did solve a complex technical issue today and gave the programmer specific if you do this it breaks, if you do that it doesn't every single time notes. So I don't mind hours working on stuff when I at least accomplish something. Still brane ded.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I posted on FB, but Ozzie is gone. Poor mac came home from school and thought he was dead since he was not moving. Called me hysterical.

Oz was very close to death, but I got him to the vet in his bed and he was peaceful. There was another family there for the same reason, sad evening at the vet.

Being very catlike, Sylvester is unmoved. just wants his dinner and my lap.

I'm applying beer.

We don't have any other feline diabetics on the board anymore do we? I guess I should contact a cat rescue and see if they could use the needles and insulin.

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

Yes, agreeing that you are very much loved msbelle. Sorry for the sucky day.

My girl is such a tween, veering between on top of her work and letting important stuff slip through the cracks, capable self-reliance and getting in her own way. She has a friend over and they are, for the record, mostly studying. They are also watching Panic at the Disco videos.

Oh, I'm so sorry, Rebecca, many hugs for you and E. Such a hard thing, I really feel for him having to come home to that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

What a crappy day, msbelle.

I'm so sorry, msbelle. Oz was a good cat.
