I THINK MY MANAGER HAS FIGURED ME OUT AND HAS STARTED TO GIVE ME REALLY BULLSHIT ARTIFICIAL DEADLINES SO THAT I ACTUALLY GET STUFF DONE ON TIME.

I'M NOT DOING ANY WORK TODAY AND FEEL GUILTY BUT NOT TOO BADLY. I'M WEARING A PASHMINA, AND I TIED IT AROUND MY HEAD LIKE A TURBAN BECAUSE I'M SO BORED. I WANTED TO SEE IF ANYONE AT WORK WOULD COMMENT ON IT BUT THEY HAVEN'T. I THINK THAT BECAUSE THEY REALIZED I'M A LITTLE WEIRD COMPARED TO THEM, THEY THINK IT'S A SERIOUS HAIRDO.

Serious Hairdo is Serious. (I couldn't get it to size down small for some reason)

Give up. . I can't find anything that would get be fired for having in my office, other than, maybe you. . .

Look to the left of my head and to the right of the green booklets on the bookshelf. In front of the Crystal Light candy...it's clear, and so blends in well.

posted by Stewriffic 22 January | 17:23

I still can't tell what it is. . .a pipe of some kind? Sex toy? Piece of hash? I really can't tell.

posted by danf 22 January | 17:25

Heh. It's not exactly a sex toy, but that's close. It's this , approximately, (NSFW!) and I use it to show people how to put condoms on.

posted by Stewriffic 22 January | 17:28

Sure you do.

(And now, forever, every time I go on Amazon.com, it'll say "if you liked this, you'll like THIS!)

ZHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAA

I tried to find out from our nurse where she bought that for me, but she wasn't readily available. So instead I just googled something like 'clear suction penis' and amazon was the first link.

OMG I AM SO BORED I CAN'T STAND IT! 30 MORE MINUTES!

posted by Stewriffic 22 January | 17:32

*raises hand*

But if I don't have a clear penis, will condoms still work for me?

posted by danf 22 January | 17:33

I GOT TSUNAMI'D BY FIVE DIFFERENT IT EMPLOYMENT AGENCIES AT WORK TODAY ASKING IF I WAS INTERESTED IN STILL WORKING AT THE SAME PLACE I WORK AT NOW AND NONE OF THE AGENCIES WERE THE ONE I CURRENTLY WORK FOR SO I HAD TO DO AGENCY-FU TO MAKE SURE THE AGENCY I WORK FOR WANTED ME TO STILL WORK AT THE PLACE I ALREADY WORK AT!

TURNS OUT THEY DO, AND I MIGHT STILL!

You'd be surprised the questions I get...

LT, your tsunami is difficult. I can't tell if it's good or bad.

I JUST MADE THE BIGGEST FRITTATA EVAR.

I WANT TO EAT THAT FRITTATA!

meep. shouting difficult on iPhone and too exhausted to bother. Dear Hot Chemist Guy, you are the fucking bane of my existence you manipulative douchebag. I love everything about my job except dealing with your inept slackassery. I daydream daily about burying your dismembered corpse out behind the tank farm, except it'd probably be an Environmental violation and god knows we can't have that.

Is it OK to love someone from afar. . .with no other motive than to just ENJOY THE FUCK OUT OF. . .their mind, and language?

I WANT TO GO HOME. IT'S FRIDAY HERE, AND A LONG WEEKEND THIS WEEKEND, AND I WANT IT NOW. OR SOONER.

I'M SO EXHAUSTED. VERY LITTLE SLEEP FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF NIGHTS. I HAD INSOMNIA ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT, AND THEN WATCHED A MOVIE TO GET RID OF IT. BUT THE MOVIE WAS SO BAD, AND I CAN'T THINK OF A SINGLE NICE THING TO SAY ABOUT IT, EXCEPT, POSSIBLY, THAT IT ENDED, THOUGH NOT SOON ENOUGH IN MY OPINION. I ENDED UP BEING EVEN MORE UNABLE TO SLEEP, BECAUSE I WAS SO INCENSED AT THE FUCKWAD CHARACTERS, OF WHOM EACH WAS WORSE THAN THE LAST, AND NONE HAD ANY REDEEMING QUALITIES.

AVOID 'MY BEST FRIEND'S GIRL' AT ALL COSTS. IT MIGHT MAKE YOU HURL. IT CERTAINLY WON'T MAKE YOU LAUGH.

MY SLEEP SCHEDULE HAS BEEN FUCKED UP FOR WEEKS AND I WOUND UP SLEEPING ALL DAY WHEN THERE ARE THINGS I NEED/WANT TO DO.
THE BROADBAND KEEPS CRAPPING OUT---ERROR 815--AND THE ONLY THING I COULD THINK OF TO FIX IT DIDN'T HELP.
I DON'T KNOW IF THE KITCHEN WILL BE FINISHED BEFORE THEY SHUT DOWN THE ELEVATORS.
I'M GOING TO BE ALONE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
