Eff. Why? I...

Dear M ~ Thanks for the magazine. We'll have to take a few minutes so you can tell me all about your day yesterday.

This is my mantra this morning..."If he gives her the job I think I'll go berzerk. If he gives her the job I think I'll go berzerk." Repeat endlessly while attempting to reach the point of zen. Fail miserably at being serene. UPDATE, ya'll: She failed the typing test. So the job was offered to someone more qualified. There is justice in the world, after all. Our new co-worker (who we'll all meet in a couple of weeks) can type over 100 words per minute with 100 percent accuracy. She's a machine!!! I hope she's nice, though. I would hate to get on the bad side of an administrative support robot. Have you ever seen the damage one of those things can do when they're angry? Even my powerful office-ninja fu isn't enough to combat that...

The three little sentences that will get you through life, courtesy of Homer J. Simpson, in his infinite wisdom. Number 1: Cover for me. Number 2: oh, good idea boss! Number 3: It was like that when I got here.

I feel obligated to put something interesting in this post, other than the mindless minutae of my daily existance. Lets see what I can find...Well, for starters, it's Wednesday. You know what that means. Surely you have not forgotten. Lost. I told someone yesterday that I don't care how convoluted the plot lines get and how long they drag things out. My mom had Twin Peaks. I have Lost. I'm with it 'til they cancel it. Even if I totally hate it by then...as long as there are no backwards talking dwarves at that point. Some things I'm not digging, though: Jack is the new Jesus? That's just ridiculous. How is it that Rose's cancer is gone, Locke can walk, Sun can get pregnant - all because of the miraculous curative powers of The Island™. But Henry/Ben develops a tumor, and the others can't bear children (thus their inclination to spirit away the youngest survivors of the crash and the attempt to take Claire's baby). So - the "good" people are healed and the "bad" people are stricken? Another one of the many good vs. evil parallels. I could just go on and on about it. But I won't. Anyway, tonight's episode is supposed to be pretty good (don't click the link if you don't like teasers/spoilers - or if you just don't care!).

An interview with Tori Amos. She just released a five CD box set.

James Cameron is not an archaeologist. He is most certainly an attention whore, and his best film was the first Terminator movie.

"Meow be back"

However, that won't keep me from watching the program on the Discovery Channel this Sunday. This is also a main story on National Geographic's website. Did somebody say Jehovah?

I'll pay you if you can give me a recording of that...

I'm interested in the hoax though, if only because one of my USF SRQ ANTHRO professors works in israel, unearthing the diets of said Jesuits. whoa, was that inappropriate? hah. yes, I'll take some time to chat about it soon, like Fri. Until then, I have a hugmungo project and a giganticous exam on thurs.
thx for caring though! I'm glad someone does. :)

Sure maybe Fri. I'll mull that over.

Be-ung?

Did you read the post before this one? And you scared me just now when you said "I have some bad news..." - I thought you were going to say you couldn't go to ORL in March. My heart stopped for a second. It sucks that you can't do the presentation you wanted. Who was the bastage who picked it first, and how the hell did they steal my idea? I bet if we beat their kneecaps with steel pipes they won't be able to present! Ha! Violence, if properly and creatively applied, solves a myriad of lifes little dilemmas.
