You look cute today, Amanda.

That second one is totally stuffed. Ick.

What I've had to eat today, by me:
* 2 pieces of cinnamon toast
* coffee
* a bagel with cream cheese (it was free at work!)
* a piece of chocolate (free treats at work!)
* hot chocolate

There are free treats at work from Thanksgiving to New Years. I am going to get so far on cookies and banana bread and coffee cake.

i've got a pretty gnarly thumb blister coming in

My power flickered 15 min before my alarm was supposed to go off, so I got a bonus 45 minutes of sleep :) :/. I've had some vanilla yogurt and coffee.

i just made cheese toast with cheddar cheese and herb chevre, it was nice. also on my third cup of coffee

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
thanks you

burns like that suck. i get them too often because of clumsy.

Haha "far," I meant "fat."

Don't pop the blister.

I ate 4.5 jumbonormous King Crab Legs Last Night! Plus I put away all my Side Items. YURRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM..........NOOMNOMONOMNOMNOM

do you play guitar with that hand, nick?

i play guitar with both hands

ha ha, but the burns were on my fretting hand, which sucks, but fortunately the worse burn is on my thumb, which doesn't really do much for fretting. my index finger is also burnt but not as bad and not on the tip, which is the important part. actually, guitar-playing callus may have protected the index tip a little.

though i tried to play just now and barre chords kind of suck, since i use my index finger as the barre for those. it hurt. might have to reconfigure my playing a little, at least for practice tonight

Would it hurt as much if you wore your fingerless mittens?

Since they would cover the lower part of your finger?

i play guitar with both hands

that was my joek

oh i thought you were genuinely interested in my well-being

:)

suck it up, dude

rock 'n roll

YYYYYAAAAAAAOOOOOOOWWWWWWW

i am posting to say that i am here.

I am posting for the same reason as Jesse is posting.

posto, ergo sum.

rather, postamos, ergo somos.

is that how latin works?

i just fought a battle with a stapler and i triumped over that shitbag

oops
triumphed

someone should start a pants company called Triumpants,

Triumpants: They're For Winners

lol shitbag

I can't believe Dan has never heard me or others use the term shitbag.

Of course I have, dingbat, I just appreciate A's usage of the term.

I know... it has the slight connotation of Amanda being a gritty street cop who's seen its type before.

Wait wait wait, my mind is reeling. Colette, how do you know Liz K0sz@r3k nee B3@v3r?

In an email conversation you, Dan, said "Shitbag is new to me" or something simular.

Don't front.

Jesse how many times have I asked you please not to discuss private emails here?

you guys i am totally a gritty street cop and i have seen perps like this sonofabitch stapler

in other news i am hungry because i know nothing of these "office treats" :(

I just ated cookies. I want lunch. Hot, hot lunch.

Guys, I'm a dating machine. That fucking awful 5 year dry spell is over. New Orleans cured me, apparently.

Find me a girlfriend while you're at it.

I don't get that last image.

I <3 my Managing Editor. We're currently discussing the merits of "get my poop in a group" v. "get my shit together" via IM.

it is a graph, most likely produced by a dating machine
