Well... here I am having a leisurely 3rd cup of coffee rather than rushing like a fiend from thing to thing at work.  It's good to have an employer that shuts down for the holidays.  I go back Monday and then have three weeks before the Christmas shutdown... which happens that Christmas week unfortunately, and as wii're (actually that means ME as J ( Read more... )

hmm...

Of course, is it the kitten?  is the other cats known as The Kittens (because we got them as kittens about eleven years ago)?  is it the welfare cats out front who yowl for their chow?

enough to make a paranoid person... more paranoider.

I wasted a nice chunk of tonight at I Can Has Cheezburger Pleaz (forgive spelling) and found the canine ( Read more... )

Well... totally at a loss as to what to do with this extra hour courtesy of Daylight Savings Time.  Of course, it could be spent working, or cleaning house, or such, but as those things were planned for today anyway, using the Extra Hour for that seems unconscionable.  Thus... I haven't been to LJ in like For-EVAH and EVAH and so a quick skim to ( Read more... )

This is just NOT RIGHT on so many levels!

Gleefully nicked from CretKid (who is angry!  be careful! the raging Cret!)

Week form hell, including training, being sick, training other people, and trying to not be annoyed to fucking hell by assorted people.  So. Not. Fucking. FUSCHIA!

Right now I am wondering exactly ( Read more... )

We're trying to transition puppy to the outside kennel so she doesn't have to spend all day in the puppy pen in our house while we're gone to work.  It's a large outside kennel, and we split it with an interior gate so that she has her side and Sir Willy the Dim but Patient has his; otherwise, she would hell devil him until he snapped, and I'm ( Read more... )

I obviously need a sleeping puppy icon as a userpic.  Oh that's right--I have a BORDER COLLIE.  Sleep???? Perfect waste of time that could be spent THROWING THE BALL ( Read more... )

Vacation officially ended at 7:30 on Monday.  The entire team is back on site after a few weeks off, which means room and office changes, some new personnel,  lost items found, and the requisite computer issues, a few of which I solved so my compadres wouldn't have to get in the line for tech services.  Oh, and we had training on various topics and ( Read more... )

It's amazing.  All it takes to make me utterly content is the jingle of puppy tags as she chases the kitten and tries to destroy the living room, J tapping on his computer behind me, a glass of milk--and an utterly divine pecan creation from the local French bakery.  Oh. My. GOD.  It's so good that I'm pretty sure some religions ban it, and there ( Read more... )

So, I split a big candy bar with J, set my half down on my desk with a small glass of milk, and step outside just long enough to put the trash cans at the curb (it's pickup day tomorrow).  When I come back inside, Tess looks guilty, there's little bits of white on her whiskers, and half my milk is gone.  WTF???  And little sprinkles of milk on my ( Read more... )
