  1. Current running tally of my figures in other people's talks: 8! Booyeah.
  2. Some guy thought I was a former boss's grandson's girlfriend, giving me a legit excuse to quip aboot "Vancougartown". #SpentMy20sUnderground
  3. Running Tally of My Figures in Other People's Talks, Conference Day 0: 1.
  4. Given my tiny legs and teetotaling, I worry 1st class is wasted on me. That said, I am 2 ginger ales in the hole while still at the gate.
  5. Not sure how I feel about probability nor prospect of spending whole conference in these clothes, but I checked my bag anyhow.
  6. @johnroderick HR guy loves *the spirit* of my argument that most all audio is workplace acceptable if headphones are utilized judiciously.
  7. "…but maybe it's just a reference to the Atwood book which sounds similar to the Canterbury Tales. That's probably totally fine."
  8. As @JohnRoderick dropped a Canterbury Tales allusion mid@RoderickOn, I said to myself "Salacious! Perhaps this isn't workplace appropriate."
  9. "Did you say 'Mother of Toilets!'? I don't think that's a thing." While child-friendly, it's ever awkward to be called out on my profanity.
  10. You've got a friend in palindromes, Pal. .laP ,semordnilap ni dneirf a tog ev'uoY
  11. @cmcook **frowny face**
  12. The nice thing about getting SO ANGRY is now having a new threshold for HOW INSANELY ANGRY I can get without She-Hulk-ing out.
  13. I'm not saying I meditate on the McCoy Multiverse. But clearly there is something big going on here. twitpic.com/9lhdij
  14. Hank, Leonard, & Jack McCoy in a band called "The Real McCoys". The thought of their "Come Get Your Love" got me through the day.
  15. I have dreams of a universe where Hank, Leonard, and Jack McCoy are related. "I'm a doctor, Jim: ignore my sweet blue eyebrows."
  16. "THERE ARE ONLY TWO LETTERS USED IN THIS, BUT THE O's ARE ROUNDER! EVERYONE WILL KNOW"
  17. Current Crazymakers: The typeface used on structures I dropped into this file isn't the same as the previous 18 which I only have as images.
  18. There may be no time-traveler sadness as dire as learning about a delicious-seeming but discontinued sandwich via old tivoed ads.
  19. My quest for the day: swap mother into all places where there would be "mom"s. Happy TherMOTHEReters Day!
  20. You say "Bear", I say "Sass-quatch": honestly, which of us is *really* being the jerk here?
