Ugh. Can we just forget the last two days?

I mean come ON. Monday's blather-fest, followed by Tuesday's open-ended whine? The least I could have done was come up with some sort of funny, impractical solutions and flogged them to death for your entertainment.

How about having a meeting with each coworker individually to proactively work out new dynamics for the work environment? That would endear me to them.

How about trying to bribe them all with a virtually unending supply of TimBits and cherry strudel? Nah, I sit beside the food area and would ended up scarfing the lot myself.

I could write a long sonnet likening the workgroup to a bunch of summer starlings, flitting about in the trees joyfully. Then I could share it in our weekly status meeting, just after the source-from-store update and before the current sales goals.

See? Here I am, making with the funny. Where was all this great material yesterday?

It's all gold, baby.

My Sea-Monkeys seem to be thriving again, for those who were wondering.

The water's all nice and clear; they all seem active and happy. There are even a couple fresh hatchlings bipping about.

Do mature Sea-Monkeys eat their young?

Damn.

One Year Ago Today: I was still on hiatus, but in 1839, the first baseball game was played in America

Mom Rating: 2 out of 5. Mom will only think it's all kind of funny. Not more than that though.
