Please Lord, grant me the strength to not type "O RLY?"  and hit the "Reply to All" button.  Even if they deserve it.

Amen.

People think that I love doing taxes.  Something to do with the accounting degrees, I suppose.  And I don't mind doing other people's taxes, but I really really hate doing my own.  As soon as I get my W-2s I do a rough estimate of the final verdict.  Inevitably it is that I will have to pay, and if I have to pay, I'm waiting until April 15 to even ( Read more... )

I'm sitting here at my desk gently rubbing an eraser all over my beautiful Viewsonic VG1930wm.  I mention the model number to point out that no, it's not from the VA value series, it's the VG series because spreadsheets are serious business.  Anyway, the point is...I feel like a blonde joke brought to life.

Ew. Someone printed out a document (in color, no less) about HPV/genital warts and then didn't pick it up, so it's just sitting on top the printer for the whole office to see.

I dislike signing office cards for people. It's really hard to be original when 20 other people are writing the exact same thing. Condolence cards are the worst, because the way I see it, it's socially impossible to say what you'd really want to say. Can you imagine? "Dude, I am SO SORRY; this fucking sucks. Shit, I don't really know what to ( Read more... )
