Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yes, he spelled shit.

Hilarious.

People don't call it social media anymore? Huh.

Not at my job, they don't.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

(You can tell because I still call it "social media" instead of just "social.")

Wait. So, like: "Drop the 'Media'. Just 'Social.' It's cleaner."

We still call it social media, and we are proud of how ahead of the rest of our sector we are for using it well! Or some aspect of it, anyway. I didn't pay that much attention to that part of the presentation, probably checking my phone.

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

That all sounds delicious.

Yes it does. The veggie broth I made yesterday is now back in the slow cooker transforming itself into mushroom-beef-barley soup and it is soooo good! I am kinda hoping my kids will do their usual and refuse to eat the suspicious looking new food form so I can have leftovers for lunch.

People don't call it social media anymore? Huh.

Not at my job, they don't.

So how does that work in a sentence? I can see saying we need to develop a social campaign for the new product. But: does the new hire have any experience with social? Sounds more awkward than that new MS slogan.

"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

It cracks me up that my mom will occasionally say "shit" in front of me and then apologize afterwards now that she's a cantakerous Little Old Lady. Mom, I've hung out with soldiers, stage actors, and professional hockey players. You're not going to scandalize me with profanity.

No but she can still scandalize herself

My company is based in Denver but we have offices world-wide. I just went into our time keeping program and noticed that the color scheme had changed to orange and blue. Before it was purple and blue. The wait screen, as my timesheet loads, says "GO BRONCOS - TOUCHDOWN". I have no idea if only Denver employees see this or if it is everyone.

Hee, cute. It occurs to me, I think I have been living in the area that is hosting the Superbowl more times than I have been living in an area that had a team in the Superbowl.

I have shoveled my driveway and put down salt for the ice. I am now drinking hot tea to help my lungs recover from the cold air and wind. The sun's out, but the wind don't care.

Also, I need to use better water to make my tea.
