1) My boss told me today
a)I was not allowed to have any contact with my replacement.
b)he’s resigned himself to the fact that i’m not going to get any work done.
2) Quote of the day
I don’t need huge quantities of ejaculate to take over the world, just a willing army of hippos.
I wish I had the time and inclination to explain this to you, but…I don’t.
3) I spent much of the day talking to Ireland. I was on the phone on 4 separate occasions with 2 different people in Dublin. I’d like to justify it by saying I was firming up travel plans for my trip, but…I can’t. p.s. Irish boys are drrrty boys.
4) When I have to yell at Ghengis he immediately drops to the floor, splays out his front legs and puts his nose down. He gives me giant sad eyes. It’s sad. I still continue to yell.
5) I’m supposed to go to the opening night party for Death of a Salesman. On one hand, free food and liquor and eventually being felt up by drunk gay boys. On the other hand, sleeping.
6) HAPPY BIRTHDAY, APRIL!!! If my sister had a website, I’d link to it and you could send her birthday wishes. She does not have a website, so you’ll have to leave them in the comments. You’d better leave her birthday wishes or I’ll hunt you down.
7) I picked a house in Baltimore, now I just need to sell my house. Buy my house so I can quit my job and move to Baltimore.
8) There’s a distinct possibility that I will be able to swing going back to school when I move to Baltimore. I have to decide between studying something I love (paleobiology with an emphasis on evolutionary modeling – bet you didn’t know I was a nerd, did ya) or something conducive to a career (something with initials that mean business something boring). Fun or responsible? Don’t know yet.
9) Can’t wait for east coast road trips.
10) Gotta pee. Later.

I just wanna say
I have the coolest friends ever. Period. My friends kick ass and that’s the way it should be. If you don’t kick ass, rock hard or generally bring me joy, then you can’t be my friend.
And when the revolution comes, if you aren’t my friend, I’ll try to find you a position cleaning my hippo stables or something.
p.s. I think i’m gonna need a clubhouse or something for me and my special friends.
confidential to you
Let me make this clear, I’m laughing at you, not with you. I mean for fuck’s sake, man, it was SHAMPOO!!!
Still laughing.
and the lies…they continue to build
Silly Mark he called me a sensible woman.
I am many many many things, I’m sure you all have some choice titles for me. This is the first time I’ve been called a sensible woman.
I feel sort of dowdy.
Who cares?
You know how when you are leaving somewhere you kinda stop caring about things? Yeah, that’s me at work.
When you combine my winning charm with my intense apathy it makes for some interesting office politics. I pretty much respond to every request with “I don’t really care” and varying volumes and level of whine.
Also, I’ve been here in this position for 4 years and today the director of development came up to me and introduced herself to me. Um…we’ve met, I’ve been here for FOUR YEARS, we work together, we gossip at potlucks, my office is directly below hers. Still, she told me it was nice to finally meet me.
I guess it is possible for one person to care less about their job than I do. Hard to imagine.
