So. You know how some washing machines have that glitch that opens a portal to another dimension for all your odd socks to fall through? (It's due to a miscalibration in the agitator that combined with the rotation of the drum and the static electricity... ahem, anyways) Well, I suspect that the printing machines at my work have a similar problem ( Read more... )

Last night I dreamed that I had just saved the world from a giant, alien (or supernatural) chocolate bar. The dream did not include the actual event, only the aftermath, where I was riding in a limo with Nick Fury from the Avengers movie (played by Samuel L.

Every day my boss tells me he loves this place. Several times. He also tells me regularly about every. Single. Problem he has to deal with at great length.

I suspect he may be fibbing to me about loving it here.

Okay, so I finally has a full-time job... almost. That is, I am officially off the Temp agency's books and on the payroll of the new place. Sort of. Pending the last paperwork and stuff. Clocking in on the "Casual" slot rather than my own, named slot. But I'm almost there!

Ye gods. Some days I feel like I'm running along the street, chasing a $5 ( Read more... )

And I emerge briefly once more for collected randomness.

#1 - Went to see "Shutter Island" at the movies. I think it broke my brain. One big WTF moment. I think I liked it. I think...

#2 - Breeding a chihuhua is a terrible thing to do to a dog, lady. Do you have to dress it up, too?

Well, things are - um - settled. Sorta. I'm currently posting from an interweb cafe as have no connection of my own, but I still live and have a roof over my head, so yays ( Read more... )
