Nick, Why are you still at work? Go outside and frolic!

KitCat, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:07 (sixteen years ago) link

that was an xpost, and maybe i'm wrong about that?

colette, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:07 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah, I'm leaving work now. HAVE FUN, KISSES!

n/a, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:07 (sixteen years ago) link

Seriously the coy "I'm confused" shit is tedious as hell.

Well, I haven't met any of you really.

Don't be scurred, Jon.

I can't believe it: the Fire game sold out.

i think i need to slow down on the water today. yesterday i left work with the worst migraine i've had in months, and guessed dehydration was the trigger. so i've been necking water today and have probably been to the bathroom about 5 times already. in 3 hours. i can't win.

colette, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:20 (sixteen years ago) link

I drink alot of water too and I hate it when I reach that feeling of being waterlogged.

KitCat, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:23 (sixteen years ago) link

I am constantly amazed at the kinds of issues a lack of water can produce.

sweet tater, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:25 (sixteen years ago) link

I love drinking water!

Jordan, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:26 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm so hungry! I was given money to pay a pizza guy when he comes, even though I'm not getting any pizza, so I have to wait up here. C'est dumb.

KitCat, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:27 (sixteen years ago) link

I love drinking water as well!

I'm great about drinking water during the week b/c I have one of those glass quart canning jars at my desk that I constantly refill. During the weekends I'm less good about drinking as much water b/c I don't have it always within reach of my left side.

sweet tater, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:29 (sixteen years ago) link

Totally.

KitCat, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:31 (sixteen years ago) link

can't you take a slice of pizza as your fee for waiting?

last time i worked in a chicago office building, i started getting screaming headaches every day about the same time. my coworker said she'd had the same problem, and it was not enough water combined with sealed windows/AC, etc. i started drinking water and sure enough, no more headaches! it's just harder to remember as a temp since every office is different and sometimes i'm on reception and can't really get up when i want to.

xp- toby got me a bottle that's like a nalgene bottle with chococat on the side, which i bring to work most days. i try to drink at least 3 'chococats' (650ml) a day.

colette, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:31 (sixteen years ago) link

Yay CHOCOCAT!
I have a nalgene bottle, but I haven't been that great at remembering to bring it to work this week.

At home, I'm always asking Nick for his water because I'm a lazy wife.

I might take a piece if it's veggie.

KitCat, Friday, 14 September 2007 17:33 (sixteen years ago) link

the expectations here are even lower than i'd expected. i sent over the thing assigned after about 2 hours or so. she walked past another half hour later and i asked if it was ok, and if the thing i'd sent last night was ok as well. 'oh, i haven't had time to look at that yet'. so i'm holding onto the third one until well after lunch.

she also asked me to find out who was doing advertising for a brand, and who was parent company. she said 'you can use google, but i'll say i've already tried and come up with nothing'. of course, it was the first hit on my search. sigh.

I've been drinking massive amounts of water lately, too, to deal with a touch of dry mouth. Which also means I have to pee 15 times a day. Is that good for you in any way? Like, maybe I'm flushing out my kidneys?

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:10 (sixteen years ago) link

is it bad to be applying to jobs on monster.com while on a temp job?

NO

dan m, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:17 (sixteen years ago) link

Still going to that DJ set thing by my and matt's friend tonight, and they fixed the flyer so it lines up. Apparently the gif from the other day was a "beta".

It's going to be goofy, but it's free!

dan m, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:29 (sixteen years ago) link

what is the Xippo Lounge like?

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:36 (sixteen years ago) link

has anyone seen aesop rock live?

sweet tater, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:39 (sixteen years ago) link

I get a feeling in the fall...a feeling of great possibility. Like when I'm walking down the sidewalk if I turn around or turn the corner there will be something really great there. It's the opposite of a feeling of impending doom--I can feel a great calm looming.

Also, I always feel ready to start a love affair with some wonderful boy.

Jesse, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:40 (sixteen years ago) link

I don't really know what the place is like, and I have seen Aesop Rock before.

dan m, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:44 (sixteen years ago) link

Jesse and I feel the same way about fall. Except for the wonderful boy part.

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:44 (sixteen years ago) link

It's like, "Soon, I will be wearing sweaters." This makes the world seem like a benevolent place.

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:45 (sixteen years ago) link

worth seeing, dan?

sweet tater, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:47 (sixteen years ago) link

I can't wait till the smell comes! And the sound of leaves rustling around!

MUST FIND PARTNER BEFORE THE GREAT SLEEP COMES UPON US sort of feeling. It's like how a cut flower that is stops getting water suddenly opens up and releases pollen all over the place--the coming greater death makes me want the little death.

Jesse, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:47 (sixteen years ago) link

la petit mort

Jesse, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:47 (sixteen years ago) link

You are a poet today. Fall weather brings out the romantic in you! That's so sweet!

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:49 (sixteen years ago) link

xps I would say so, yeah. The time I saw him was at the Pfork fest in 2006, and he was performing with Mr. Lif, who I am much more familiar with. It was hot as hell, so that detracted from my enjoyment a bit, but it was still really cool.

dan m, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:50 (sixteen years ago) link

Like I think I drank 2 bottles of water during their performance, and I was mostly standing still!

dan m, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:50 (sixteen years ago) link

In you too Kenan!

Jesse, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:50 (sixteen years ago) link

How about this gem from the Faggotry thread: "the object of your goo"

Jesse, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:51 (sixteen years ago) link

hahaha

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:51 (sixteen years ago) link

That is a technical discussion strictly. I am nowhere near the weird, sleep-deprived goat boy I was yesterday.

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:52 (sixteen years ago) link

he's playing here on saturday & leaf & I are trying to decide if we should go.

sweet tater, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:53 (sixteen years ago) link

I would. He's a pretty amazing mc. I saw him at an in-store a couple-few years ago. It was tiny and cramped, but very very good.

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 18:56 (sixteen years ago) link

I had bulgogi for lunch.

Jesse, Friday, 14 September 2007 19:03 (sixteen years ago) link

I had beef with sweet green beans and peanuts. One of the agents bought the marketing department lunch at Big Bowl. It was pretty good!

kenan, Friday, 14 September 2007 19:05 (sixteen years ago) link

bulgogi apparatus

dan m, Friday, 14 September 2007 19:05 (sixteen years ago) link

Where's he playing, Kelsey?

Jordan, Friday, 14 September 2007 19:05 (sixteen years ago) link

dan, so is that the kind of thing people will be dancing at? sounds kind of fun. but not sure how it would match up with gig at empty bottle.

colette, Friday, 14 September 2007 19:14 (sixteen years ago) link

I assume there will be dancing, yes. The way it was described to me was "if you want to dance, people will be, but if you just want to hang out that is very easy too". It's not like a club thing, I don't think.
