Dakini ACTION Late Shift

00:36 / 26.07.07

Might be worth it, or simply drinking more water to balance out the dehyrdration. Calm, cleansing breaths as well. When do the appraisals have to be done by?

01:00 / 26.07.07

The end of this week. They're actually a piece of piss, but I hate the feeling of sitting in judgment on people, even though none of my team have done anything they need to be judged for.

23:29 / 27.07.07

ZANG!

23:39 / 27.07.07

WOO HAH!!!

23:56 / 27.07.07

Whatcha up to, Stoats? I'm stuck at work on a Friday evening. Lame.

00:48 / 28.07.07

I, too, am stuck at work. Arse.

00:53 / 28.07.07

Hey all.

00:58 / 28.07.07

Hat!

Work is like drowning in endless frozen time.

Until payday.

Hey all.

Just discovered the fatal flaw of escaping to Nebraska: I just received two calls back to back, one to try and convince me to go out tonight, the other, to find out if I'm going to make deadline. Only one of these can be answered with 'I'm sorry, I'm halfway across the country right now,' and it's the wrong one.

01:08 / 28.07.07

But which one is it? WHICH ONE??

01:17 / 28.07.07

Let's just say it's cheaper and easier to say 'Yes, of course I'll make my deadline*' than it is to find a last minute flight counterbalanced only by incredibly cheap drinks and probably the blowing off steam and lots of maudlin rounds of compliments that come after hours of ICD. (Y'know, if it weren't for angry drunks, most disputes could probably be settled over rum?)

*Even if I don't make it, which, right now, wouldn't technically be my fault, since I'm waiting on approvals.

ICD?

Incredibly Cheap Drinks.

01:27 / 28.07.07

Those are the 2nd best kind! The first being IFDs.

01:34 / 28.07.07

I'm mending books-- expect glue-fume-addled posting shortly...

01:35 / 28.07.07

So, instead, I'm trying to do a little ahead-of-time research and make this bottle of whisky last the night.

Can you believe I'm being paid to prove to someone poncho's are and have been available in Germany? This would be excluding the possibility of someone just buying it elsewhere and bringing it back with them. Producers to not live on the same planet as I.

01:37 / 28.07.07

Maybe you DO need a drink, DN.

01:48 / 28.07.07

I know I do.

01:57 / 28.07.07

ME TOO. This glue is doing nothing.

Meanwhile, the Accomplice - who is too mathematical for his own good - calculated that today we've been together for 1415 days.

02:18 / 28.07.07

ME TOO. This glue is doing nothing.
Well you're not supposed to drink it!

02:22 / 28.07.07

Awww, you're no fun.

My insides is sticky!

02:29 / 28.07.07

swallow some book making material and see if you can shit out a novel

02:41 / 28.07.07

Only Joyce Carol Oates can shit out a novel. I have to actually write mine. She does six before breakfast if she takes castor oil.

02:56 / 28.07.07

I have never read any JCO.

sTe

02:57 / 28.07.07

Upside down toileting leads to very novel shitting... so I've heard told anyways

I've been dancing

30 this week and I've been dancing and obviously showing these young upstarts a move or two, which was most drunkenly pleasing. Seem to have lost my partner along the way tonight though which is concerning me greatly

I think the last time I did that, I ended up starting a mosh pit, launching myself from a speaker tower and getting escorted out by the bouncers. Damn, those were the days!

04:44 / 28.07.07

Wow. I'm used to getting stupid e-mails and calls over work stuff, but tonight was like an endurance trial of inanity.

Leigh Monster loses its cool

04:56 / 28.07.07

JUST finished work. Now is time to go to the early-opening shop, and buy bus beer.

05:05 / 28.07.07

Hallo! I worked twelve hours today and now my workday is over!! YAY I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU ALL

05:08 / 28.07.07

Bus beer should be a brand. Bus Beer, in a yellow schoolbus-like bottle. With actual wheels, so you have something to roll around the table after you've killed a few of them.

Primarily because I love the prospective visual of an entire bar full of people, loaded and rolling toy buses around their tables and across the bar. The Wheels on the Bus as drinking song. Great pick-ups are hidden therein, as well. Also, you could feel terminally mature if you're the one person not drinking a Bus Beer, taking yours in a respectable glass or adult bottle.

Hey, Leigh. Glad to see I'm not the only one still going.

Twelve hour shift? Even factoring in an extra-long lunch break, you must have more energy than me.

05:11 / 28.07.07

Mrg. Including the lunch break, it was thirteen hours. Two jobs, straight from one to the other.
