I wholly didn't expect to be spirited away into being sociable last night after dinner at Amphora [NO 'S AT THE END PEAS], so it did ruin my plans, but since my plans largely involved being unsociable, I can't genuinely complain ( Read more... )

I'm having a harder and harder time concealing that I'm sick and avoiding getting sent home... I'm a little too Japanese in this respect, am I? But Aibo's been sick already, and I doubt Madame Red or anyone else would catch anything from me since they're farther removed from any of my contagiousness [having said that... *knock on wood*]. So, yes, I ( Read more... )

The plan was to get to bed early and try to reset my schedule. The flaw in the plan was I got out--as is now usual--at 10 with a request to come in early tonight [and subsequently leave early] that I rejected outright. My extended excuse, had I been asked, would be that I needed to supervise the door painting they're doing [right now, in fact], but ( Read more... )

I've been getting a headache over how bullheaded he was about doing the backroom however he felt like it without listening to a word any of the Team Leads ( Read more... )

So I ended up getting a different bag, because I just didn't see my sketchbook fitting in the one I like :( but I could stand to have a bag specifically for holding things I might take with me on the town [sketchbook, camera, pens/pencils]. It vaguely bugs me that I've bought yet another bag I might [not] use, but what draws me most about a lot of ( Read more... )

The truth is I am clearly a liberal--I am so accepting of the notion of change that I really don't protest it unless I see a clear reason that something's a bad idea, like buying a very large and expensive toy when already in massive debt or things to that effect. In practice, I'm centrist, because I don't exactly go around enforcing change myself ( Read more... )
