what i've been up to
05/11/2006 = 12:38 PM

I'm aware that "What I've Been Up To" ends in a preposition, but since the correct syntax would read, "Up to What I Have Been," I decided it would be quooler to be ingrammatical than to be mistaken for Yoda.

I guestposted at heydomsar's place last weekend, and also at La Casa de Pie, and forgot to tell people. Oops.

Dear Lady at the Literature Fulfillment Center:

You're not confused because you haven't been informed specifically as to what we require. You're confused because you refused to take notes, or save any of the instructions we tendered to you in any manner, and you are now in over your head.

At first, I tried to take pity on this situation, but since I've attempted several times to reclarify the instructions for you so that you could reconcile the requirements in your own records and your own mind, you're still being really thick about it, and I've come to the conclusion that it's not that you can't understand, it's that you're hoping I get so frustrated with you that I just stop trying to make you understand.

The only problem I have with that is that MY CLIENTS NEED THAT FUCKING LITERATURE YOU LAZY BITCH.

I've also gotten past the point where I don't care, past the point where I'm capable of explaining it to you yet again, past the point where I'm angry with your lack of attention, past the point where I want to bitchslap you, and all the way to the point where, if I ever meet you, you'd better hope we're not near a flight of stairs.

Do you get my point?

Or shall I explain it to you again, this time in person?

Sincerely,

Golf "Meet Me At the Top of the Staircase" Widow

All in all, I'd have to say that there are aspects of this week that are very much causing me to want to hide in my home with several large cupcakes, an attack dog at the door, and Billie Holiday.

How much longer till pirate shenanigans in C-Bus?

If you donate to That Man's Paypal, he'll know who you are and tell me to put you on this year's shirt, but if you donate directly to the United Way or mail your donation directly to the clinic, I have no way of knowing what a nice thing you did unless you tell me. So note me or comment me and I'll add your name to the Shirt of Much Tackiness.
