I got my haircut on Friday. I used to hate having it done, but now I almost find it enjoyable. I think perhaps I have departed a little from the worrying-what-I-look-like stage of my life and more into the enjoying-the-pampering stage. I have always gone to the same barbers.

Today I have mostly been entering the wrong password. We're forced to change it every quarter and aren't allowed to use old ones. I swear I've typed it in wrong at least 15 times today. Why can't my mind remember 5 seconds before I press Enter and not 5 seconds after ( Read more... )

When something goes horrifically wrong for my boss and he needs to let off steam the worst thing I've ever heard him exclaim is:
