Another day in the life of a public servant
In a display of childishness and timewasting taken to unprecedented heights, alchemilla and trianne and I engaged in the following contest today (well, they did, and I watched, because my powers had deserted me). Please keep in mind that we are all women of a certain age, public servants, and did this on taxpayer time.
Alch began with a snarky (private joke):
=^.^=
Tri riposted with:
===^.^===
(Pussycat that won the pussycat moustache competition)
Alch countered with:
<^..^>
(a bat)
Tri immediately answered:
\=^^=/
(Pharaoh’s hat)
Alch, not to be outdone, sent off:
C(*@*)O
(koala)
and followed with breathtaking speed:
@(*-*)@
(Princess Leia)
Tri, however, was not about to admit defeat. She vanquished her opponent with a mighty:
oO
(Elijah Wood…)
And so a winner was declared, and the opponents regretfully left the field for the real world of spreadsheets, databases, records, meetings, Powerpoint presentations and cubicle life.
