The schools I have gone to:
Alice Brown Elementary (first half of Kindergarten. Actually, I’m not sure if this was the school — give me a break, I was 4, what do I know? Anyway, it was an elementary school in Brookswood, I think this was it. Mom will correct me if I’m wrong.)

Overheard in the Office

Did I ever mention how nice it is NOT to be the weird one in the office?
Dave: Nick and I have a special bond
Dave: I can tell by the way he avoids my extended eye contact whenever I see him
Dave: And how he shuffles slightly away when I sit really close
Donna: that’s how he [...]
I win at support

So, for those of you not playing at home, I work for a company that makes web based content management software. I run the support department, if by “run the” you mean “am the”. We downsized quite a bit last year, so instead of managing a fun little team of three or four like I [...]

How much do you think a stuck pixel (in this case, stuck neon green) would bug me?
I recently asked my employer if I could buy one of our extra LCD monitors, because I love having dual monitors at work and would like them at home. He offered to let me have one. Well, score. [...]
FRIEND FAIL

Tonight is Nick’s work Christmas party. Should be fun. A thousand of my closest friends that I’ve never met, all of whom I’m supposed to make a good impression for. I probably shouldn’t talk about sex. Luckily, theoretically it’s all video game nerds. I can talk about video games. This’ll be easy, right? Right? Hello? [...]

Today, I’m wearing: a sweater. pants. ski jacket. arm warmers. toque. blanket wrapped around my legs. And a space heater blowing full blast on me. And I’m STILL freezing.
Why? Because there were apparently some leaks in my office building, and they’ve shut off the heat while they work on fixing it. Worse, they’ve left the [...]
You’re sick

Was having a conversation with a co-worker about the flu. We have someone off sick today, and since he’s been plagued with this year’s flu, we’re very HAPPY he’s off sick today.
So I got to thinking about sick days.
I take a lot of them, unfortunately. I suffer from chronic migraines, and as mentioned [...]

This is a mad abuse of air conditioning.
I am wearing a sweater, wrapped in a blanket, and STILL freezing my tuckus off. Dear Office Building People: Fuck you.

Last week, I bought a 24-case of diet coke for week. This should, theoretically, last me a good 2-3 weeks. Awesome.
This morning, I got into work and found that SEVEN were missing. Seriously? Seven? What the hell? One or two, whatever… but SEVEN?
I asked around the office, and one coworker mentioned that yes, [...]
