Less Clairvoyance = More Annoyance. Ugh..

hannah, you should wear a dress covered in pictorial representations of the job for which you're applying.  Then you can try to rock the "Miss Frizzle" look.

I never would've caught this reference except that for my Tuesday night class, a group did a presentation based on The Magic School Bus.

FUCK THE NIH AND ALL THEIR CRAZY ELECTRONIC FORMS

THIS IS NOT EASIER THAN PAPER

PAPER IS NICE, WHY YOU GOTTA MAKE ME GET ALL ONES AND ZEROES

[hannah]

Interview: finished, over with, done. Not necessarily kicked on its ass, but at least kaput.

However, migraine? Full force. Damn. One hour until I get off work. Two hours until I'm home. Six or so hours until the Indians game is over, which means seven hours until I can go to sleep.

[RavingLunatic]

Some doctor told someone my mom knows that to fix his migraines he chugs a can of Mountain Dew and takes 4 ibuprofen. My mom's started doing it, and it's worked pretty good for her.

[YojimboMonkey]

I have apparently killed the part of my brain responsible for reminding me to zip up my zipper after using the bathroom.  I remember to use it when I'm getting dressed in the morning, etc.  But after using the bathroom, I'm less than 25% successful over the last several weeks in remembering to zip up.  This is an annoyance.  I imagine that as winter comes along new neural pathways will be forged and the problem will correct itself.  But still.

GODDAMN MICE

EVERY BAG OF FOOD IN MY KITCHEN HAS BEEN GNAWED THROUGH

FUCK YOU MOTHERFUCKERS FOR EATING/CONTAMINATING MY FOOD AND THUS MAKING ME THROW IT AWAY

311 I AM READY TO FIGHT

That stuff is probably still good. Just cut off the chewed up parts.

Yeah, if I have a migraine and can't get to medication, I just get as much caffeine in me as possible.  It's one of the active ingredients in Excedrin, which is the only thing that's ever helped with my migraines.  Yay caffeine, I guess.  Though I have to say, I very rarely take caffeine into my system, so that might be why it helps so much.

If I eat my own brain would that help

[hannah]

is 7:30 too early to go to bed

[girl]

I'd vote against eating your own brain, but for going to bed (if you can get to sleep).

(Except you'd miss baseball, and Boston's really funny tonight.)

(Except you'd miss baseball, and Boston's really funny tonight.)

SHUTUP! SOX IN 7! BELIEVE!

(Also, Garko was totally getting signs from Victor Martinez, who was on first. Did anybody else watch his eyes? I'm onto you, Garko! Next time up you're eating one!)

[Swimmy]

Who gnawed through it all? andronicus?

Also, Swimmy, having been in that situation myself, I usually pull out "problem floss" with a pair of tweezers.

This resulted in simply tearing the floss, leaving a too-small-to-be-tweezed bit left.

[jebreject]

If I eat my own brain would that help

No.

However, if you let ME eat it, that might help.

OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS STUPID FUCKING PRINTER???

[YojimboMonkey]

My laptop took a shit this morning.  Won't boot now and is hanging when I try to repair the install. 

Of course my job involves computers, LOTS of computers, and I have other computers I can work (and fuck around and post here) from while I'm fixing the laptop.  But it still sucks. 

Also my brain hurts this morning. 

[diesel_powered]

I was up till 5 this morning trying to get this printer to work so I can print some shit for our big fundraiser this weekend, but to no avail. Consequently, I slept through a departmental cleanup this morning (which isn't all that bad since I need the sleep because I'm STILL FUCKING SICK) and am missing a lecture this afternoon. My only hope is that the person who's SUPPOSED TO MAINTAIN THIS FUCKING PRINTER BUT DOESN'T DO HIS FUCKING JOB can get it working today so I can make and hang prints.

[slow west vultures]

our mail key is now about completely stripped.  i tried three times to get it to work.  the first time when the mailman was there, then half an hour later when some woman pulled up to check her mail.  it probably looked like i was trying to break into somebody's mailbox.  grrr

[C of heartbreak]

My mailbox lock is a piece of shit. I have to struggle to get the key in every time I open it. You'd think they could put a decent lock on something as important as a mailbox.

[slow west vultures]

i think ours is just rusted out from the sun.  the woman who was checking her mail suggested putting wd-40 on it, but i don't think that would help because the key itself looks like its worn down.

I just spurted super glue all over my goddamn hand

[DCDave]

I just spurted super glue all over my goddamn hand

I had to explain to somebody that the smell of SoftSoap made me think of superglue because of my days as a miniatures gamer and getting superglue everywhere and that was embaressing

[C of heartbreak]

I imagine the embarrassing part would be explaining miniature gaming.

[DCDave]

You'd be surprised about how often I don't have to do that to a broad swathe of people and how often the response is "So like... Space Marines?" I think DC has the nerdiest "hipsters" 

[milesofsparks]

is it wrong that this thread made me laugh more than I've laughed in days?  sorry, everybody, I feel for your annoyance.  I hope it goes away.  but not until after all of you have milked a few more posts out of it.
