    T'was the night before Christmas...
    And we got back from a little shopping with smiles on all of our faces. I managed to floor [info]chelistaeriadne with the gift of a portrait of Moonbeam, Ashferret, and I that she'll be able to enjoy after the Holidays.

    We just finished tracking Santa... ( http://www.noradsanta.org/en/default.php ) and we made some lovely Christmas cookies for him too (my gingerbread man kinda looked like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson when I frosted him, so I added a championship belt made of candy bits and traced in his definitive eyebrow).

    Dishes, wrapping to follow. We gotta put Wildfire to bed.

    Merry Everything to all, and to all a good night!

    Story Time
    Okay, so I haven't posted in a while, and my life is a hurricane. Wanna know why?

    So I dressed up as a wicked priest for Hallowe'en, in my long black opera coat that looks like a Monsigneur's robe. Was walking around the Half Axe Market Square with [info]nosidagi, and a guy asked me what denomination of priest I was, thinking (for some reason) that I was the real McCoy.

    I replied, "Church of Hedonism," without missing a beat.

    The dillhole actually looked at me questioningly and asked, "What's hedonism?"

    I pulled back the opera coat, revealing a flogger, a slapper, and a whip.

    "If it feels good...do it," I replied and walked away, leaving the guy's jaw to drop.

    As for why I've been incommunicado for so long? We'll get to that. Just know I'm safe, happy, and my life is a hurricane. :)

    Got my new shift
    12pm - 8:30pm, Monday to Friday. Not spectacular, but I know quite a number of the people on my team, and I scored the seat I like. The sup's good too. Might actually be able to do Karaoke again, which would be nice.

    Now I'm whipping up some Mandarin Orange Sirloin Strips, served with Brown Rice. Thanks for chopping that monster thing of meat up for me, [info]nosidagi, it's very nice to have a freezer full of premium meaty goodness, for not much money at all.

    Of cheese and assKICKery
    My song of Corporate Doggerel (thanks for the term [info]moonkittykat, it works perfectly!) won my team a big ol' pizza party to be held today. Go me.

    Getting a new shift starting November 6th. Hoping I'll get something that ends earlier in the day than the 11pm I have now.

    Oh, and we're not supposed to leave memos on people's accounts anymore. How that qualifies as "We Care" or "We Own" I still haven't figured out.

    Quote of the day...
    "I am NOT puking in your 'Diaper Genie'!"
    -[info]shapshift, on why changing dirty butts is a hard limit

    So the other day, I'm talking religion with a few guys around me. One of our resident "Subject Matter Experts" busts out this winner of a quote...

    "So, like...in the Bible, it's written like Lord of the Rings...right?"

    I laughed uproariously at this...with images of Jesus Frodo, Sauron crucifying Gollum, Jesus getting it on with Arwen, and other twisted things.

    So the guy takes my "kudo" last night and gives it to me today.

    It's got a friggin' Hobbit on it.

    I'm still laughing about it.

    Unusual...
    Hey, [info]xavienne? You didn't recently hurt your feet...did you? I just had a very strange and vivid dream, and wanted to make sure you were okay.

    Two down...
    Cellphone. Check.

    Long distance from home. Check.

    Hey, [info]hightechlowlife? How's my computer doing?

    Of Cheese and Asskissery
    I finally finished that song that was crammed in my head.

    Don't look beyond the cut unless you want to see an example of how I earned the nickname "Ankles".

    (as in, I'm such a brown-noser I'm in it up to my ankles)

    Beware the cheese )

    Trivia Time...
    This one's killing me.

    In the 1988 movie Beetlejuice (starring Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis) what caused the couple's car to swerve off the bridge, causing their untimely deaths?

    I know I should know this, I've seen the movie enough...but it's been years.

    The third thing...
    My landline long distance.

    Not a biggie, but a pain in the arse.

    Somebody stab me.
    Between calls, I'm coming up with lyrics to a song about my job in a "Corporate Brown-noser" kinda way. Sure it's for a contest, and our team could win a prize...but c'mon. I could be bluebooking with my free time. But no, the filk/silly song bug hit me, and I gotta let it out...even if it means being a kissass.

    Hoy, Fairymushroom!
    If you come over to my place early Sunday afternoon, I do believe [info]nosidagi will be making his Amazing Alfredo (with garlic bread!) for dinner a little bit later that evening... :)

    If these things come in threes...
    First it was my computer that crapped the bed.

    Now it's my cellphone.

    I really don't want to know what's next.

    Amazing.
    Despite being sick, I managed to get a kudos today.

    Cool.

    Headaches SUCK.
    I want to die.

    It started as a headache.

    It blossomed into an enduring (started Saturday...it's Wednesday now) throbbing headache accompanied by nausea.

    The nausea was so bad at one point I actually had to "visit the rosebushes", which is something I haven't had to do in years.

    Now the right side of my neck and trapezius muscles are aching.
    My head is pounding.
    My throat is stripped.
    And my head's in a fog.
    Why the frig am I still at work? I should get out of here and schedule a Doctor's Appointment for tomorrow.

    Headaches...
    Had a wicked migraine-like headache this weekend.

    Came home, and my comp decided it doesn't want to boot up. Does the whole "you wanna go to safe mode?" thing, without letting me move the cursor so I can start it in safe mode. So when it does boot up using the defaults, it kicks itself in the groin and reboots, and comes up with the same question, which it won't lemme answer. Grr.

    And now my headache's coming back.

    Fun.

    Bad call.
    I was on a call today and listened to a woman verbally humiliate and physically assault a small child.

    Needless to say I forwarded this on to my superiors. I really hope they'll do something about it. Like suspend/cancel the evil bitch's service.
