IT IS NOT 'REIGN IN'. IT IS 'REIN IN'. THE METAPHOR IS NOT RULING, BUT RIDING.
MANAGEMENT APPRECIATES YOUR KIND ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. CHOP CHOP.
Barnes and Noble shockingly dropped their firmware update within the timeframe they promised it by. They actually almost did something about the library shelves! Although to be fair apparently I had 1.2 instead of 1.3 and didn't know it. Well done checking firmware numbers, self!
OH MY GOD I JUST CHECKED THE MAIL AND CANDY JUST RANDOMLY FULFILLED MY LIFE'S AMBITION TO HAVE A KIRK/SPOCK DOUJINSHI.
EXCUSE ME WHILE I TWIRL AND CACKLE LIKE A MANIAC.
Oh man, that totally made my day, because work was a clusterfuck of a shitstorm and I got home and had to roast a turkey (which I am still waiting for but is at like 145F and then I have to tenderly carve it or whatever).
One funny thing did happen, though -- we have a relatively new resident and he has a red tabby dude named (obviously enough) Rusty. Rusty is a big old thing with gold eyes and a white shirt front, and as far as I have been able to tell, about three more drops of Siamese blood than is good for him. He likes to escape the room and go up and down the halls, crying until he finds his person. So today I'm walking down the hall, bitterly regretting the fact that when I switched bags I failed to put my ibuprofen bottle in the bird bag, and I hear Rusty screaming like a banshee. Like, I was like, Oh Jesus God, someone has found the cat and is helpfully trying to wash him, he's declawed, he can't defend himself.
RUSTY: OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD, HELP ME! HEEEELLLLPPPP MEEEEEEEEEEEEE
RUSTY: OH GODDDDDDD OH GODDDDD! SAVE ME, JESUS! SAVE ME!
RUSTY: PLEASE! MERCY ON ME! I BEG OF YOU! SAVE ME! HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! HEELLLP M---
MEG: *hurries over and opens door*
RUSTY: ---EEEeeee .... Hey, it's a human! :D
MEG: Really? REALLY?
RUSTY: I was lonely T3T
MEG: Yeah, no. *closes door on him*
