Today is actually a total rout, as you can tell by the fact I'm posting here. In fact, this entire week has been piss poor, workwise. Mind you, I actually did a lot of work.

Yeah.

It has come to my attention that certain persons are injuring themselves in an attempt to steal my identity. Probably trying to get in on all the hot ladies that throw themselves at me daily. Did I say themselves? I meant rocks ( Read more... )

I just wrote a post complaining about how I was frustrated. And LJ ate it. I think it waits for a post with a high concentration of the word frustrated, and eats it on purpose. I shall try to reconstruct it here merely to retain some justification for the time I have already spent ( Read more... )
