Take that, United!

This is the part of work that I'd forgotten. The part where there are things for me to do, all the resources that I need to do them, and yet I'd really rather go take a nap or read a book. Thus continuing to sit here and try to focus is like eating some horrid thing that's "good for you" even though it tastes like old carpet ( Read more... )
