Spike ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Mardi Gras day is actually kind of mellow, or can be. You've seen 8 zillion parades already and filled a grocery bag with throws, so the pressure is off. Or maybe that's just me since that one year when I got food poisoning in the morning.
ETA mmmm, new employee brought in homemade lumpia for everyone. She's my favorite now.
Happy Mardi Gras, y'all. Raise your hands if you'd rather be in New Orleans today.
I'm putting my hands up. Metaphorically. If I did it literally, I'd probably freak out the dude sitting next to me on the shuttle.

Yeah, totally calmer than the weekend.
Although I am looking forward to my plan of happy hour at the place with $1 oysters and chocolate-filled beignets.
Ooh, that's an excellent plan.
Apparently in Haiti they have postponed Carnaval because of the political unrest?
Oh, wow, that is hard to imagine. I heard that Brazil is not cutting back despite zika.
Oy, I have 4 hours of meetings tomorrow (I know that is not a lot for some people but it's an astounding amount for me), one of which is a training I'm giving, and which I scheduled, so I can't even complain that much. But we are getting lunch as part of one of these, so that's something.
OMG, finding a neurologist for my migraines is such a headache, ha ha, see what I did there.
Got an appointment in slightly less than a month for a headache clinic that seems to be the best bet around. Naturally, I will run out of meds about three days before that. Now I need to call them and beg to be put at the top of the cancellation list, because I'd still rather go to them than someone else.
Wow, I hadn't realized that a court invalidated the copyright claim on Happy Birthday all the way back to 1949. Dan Rydell is definitely lecturing someone right now.

Hands raised, literally. I can do what I want when working from home.
We're getting more snow. Roads aren't bad, but I still don't want any more.
