Ok, your boss attorney? EVIL! And clearly stupid, because anywhere you are is the funnest and most intelligent place to be.

Thanks, dude! And yes, every day I seem to find myself more and more sure that my father's initial reaction to hearing that I'd been placed with this law firm ("Oh yeah, they're evil") was correct. Evil lawyers! And not even in a fun laden-with-special-effects way, like Wolfram and Hart. :)

yeah, I always get semi-monthly and bi-monthly confused, and I've especially psyched myself out on them because I remembered that it's counter-intuitive, but now I think my intuition has changed about them, so I always get them wrong. But I guess semi-monthly is twice a month, and bi-monthlyl is every other month. Er, I think.

The point is, your boss sucks. But you are fun!

And I, myself, am always late, and think it's an egregious character flaw as well, but I just! I just can't get my act together. I think it's because the one area of my life in which I am optimistic is how long it will take me to put myself together.

I know!! Isn't it an awful thing? I mean, it's always so STRESSFUL and I hate it but I still can't change! I don't think I'll ever fully understand it but you're totally right, the drastically overly-optimistic estimates of how long it will take me to get ready are definitely at the root of it. Ditto with driving time -- it's ridiculous! Okay, so *one time* I made it to work in sixteen minutes. Now I assume that that's how long it will take me, even though almost every other morning it takes between twenty and twenty-five -- and isn't this riveting? The point is: I need to get my act together!

Also: You are fun as well. :)

Friday: I'm so glad you were able to come to my birthday dinner! It was so fun, and no big deal to get you out of that driveway, actually it was fun! (Of course I was just directing, not doing any pushing or anything.) And you brought ice cream and lottery tickets, so that makes it all ok!

Sunday: I know I've said it before, but I LOVE YOUR FAMILY! I am serious about that adoption thing.

Monday: Grrrr to the boss attorney. Um, hello, SHE didn't know what it meant!

Hope you are having a lovely Tuesday. Will you be available on Saturday for Birthday Bash Part 2 (i.e., you, Jo, and I)?

Saturday sounds good to me -- any plans yet? I'm going to call you tomorrow sometime so maybe we can talk about it then.

Also: My family loves you right back! They would totally adopt you right quick.

Greatest Entry Ever!

A little manuel labor never hurt anyone, especially if there was Ice Cream afterward. Mmm.

Your boss seriously needs to have a house fall on her.

Thank you! And I agree, ice cream cures everything. Everything! Aaaaand now I want ice cream. Time to raid fridge!

Also: Every time I look at your icon, I start laughing. Love it!

Hey, I didn't know there even was a difference between bi-monthly and semi-monthly. That woman is a complete bitch, and her time will come.

Also, I can't believe we're talking about bi-monthly vs. semi-monthly when our brothers and sisters are DYING in Iraq.

Dude, the bi/semi thing is VERY confusing, is it not?

Also, I can't believe we're talking about bi-monthly vs. semi-monthly when our brothers and sisters are DYING in Iraq.

I am deeply shamed.

Have I whined to you about my neck in the past few hours? Because it HURTS! Whine!
