Dear God...

[mousme]

Is today over yet?

:::pathetic whimper:::

I've been "accused" of losing a valuable document. It's possible it got shuffled to the wrong desk. It's also possible it never got here. I don't habitually read the mail I deliver. It would take too long, and besides, it's boring. I just do my best to get it to the right person, end of story. Sometimes that doesn't happen, because it's not really meant to go to the person to whom it's addressed (ever notice that about mail?).

I've searched both my desk and L's desk. It's not here. We didn't sign for it and then forget it. Which means it's either somewhere in the manager's office, on the desk of her admin. assistant, or else it wasn't delivered here.

We'll see if I hear back from the manager. She hasn't asked about it in fifteen minutes or so. Maybe she's found it already. If it doesn't turn up, we'll have to phone the courrier and ask for confirmation that it was delivered and signed for by someone who works here.

I needed this like a kick in the teeth.

/end whinge.

:::ETA:::

Okay, so the document is here. I signed for it. Since it came by messenger, that also means I would have brought it to its rightful owner (at least, to my knowledge) within about fifteen minutes maximum of its receipt. I hope to God they find it. My name is the last associated with that stupid paper. Gah.

Hello there!

I'm a random LJ'er who came upon your LJ to spread a smile meme and such. Sorry you're having a difficult day.. in my office we have a rule: If you can't find something accuse someone of taking it and BINGO.. you'll find it right that second.

Hope your day improves!

Hi, and thanks for the nice thought. They haven't found it yet, but here's hoping.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[ozy-y2k.livejournal.com]

Oh, we've found it alright. Don't you worry 'bout THAT.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

I never even accused YOU of taking it.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[clayfoot.livejournal.com]

No, that would be hardly be necessary, when you know very well that you pinched it yourself!

[vureoelt.livejournal.com]

Ugh. That's not good... it is found promptly.

[vureoelt.livejournal.com]

Doh. Insert "hope" right after the elipse.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

OMG! Are you accusing *ME* now?

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[clayfoot.livejournal.com]

Are you feigning innocence now? Tender, my fanny!

mousme, you gotta think to yourself: document gone; tender_shredder appears outta nowhere. Coincidence?

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[mousme.livejournal.com]

I have to admit I'm wondering where the heck all you people suddenly came from. I don't think a "random" person has so much as looked at this LJ in three years.

Coincidence?

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

Hey hey hey! I totally did NOT go all Fawn Hall on her very important document! Totally.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[clayfoot.livejournal.com]

Actually, it's phaedra's fault, which I'm sure you will, to your everlasting dismay, learn soon enough.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

Yes, Phaedra took the valuable document. She's SUCH a clepto!

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

That's actually phaedra_amunet.

I'm unsure who the other Phaedra is, although people keep mistaking her for me.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

*poses sexily with stolen document*

*runs away*

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

Seriously, sorry to hear that. :-(

I work at a law firm, so I know about Lost Document Panic Attacks.

Hope you find it.

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

OMG SHH!!!

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

See! See! See! Did you see that?

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

Ooh, insomniac *and* cat person, hmm?

Hail and well met!

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

*waves hand*

These are not the documents you're looking for.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

well ::elbows akimbo:: were they SIGNED BY OLIVER NORTH or not?

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

Far be it from me to--

OMG LOOK OVER THERE!!!

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

WHAT? A document shredder?

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

ASTEROID!!!

*sigh*

Why doesn't that ever work for me?

Do I not have enough conviction in my voice when I say it?

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

No. You have a smirk on your face and a evil glare in your eye.

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

Moi?

[rearranges face into angelic smile]

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[tender-shredder.livejournal.com]

Yeah like we're so convinced you didn't totally take the valuable document NOW!

Ha.! ::helium voice:: ddiiiieeeeee

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

Was it the BLACK document?

::Strindberg voice:: Black...as is my need. Bleeding...as is my heart.

There is no hope of a single lasting happiness in this life -- since we are.already. in hell!

[mousme.livejournal.com]

I think I actually fit both technical criteria for being a "crazy cat lady," as it happens, since I'm crazy and have four cats. The two facts are not necessarily related. ;)

Hello!

Re: I've unleashed the Comment Vortex

[clayfoot.livejournal.com]

I don't know how I ever get you two confused. She's the good one.

[ai731.livejournal.com]

As you also live above me, do I get to refer to you as "The crazy cat lady who lives upstairs"?

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Sure. Why not? :D

phaedra_amunet, I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact and was in no way fair comment and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.

Awww, Chester, I'm sorry. :::scritches Chester:::

My other cats would eat you. Seriously. They think I starve them. You wouldn't stand a chance. But I'll friend you on my LJ. How's that?

[weephun.livejournal.com]

What is this crazy moonman language???? Someday I will learn the tru7h.

Seriously hope you find that doc though. Office politics can be a real pain. I just transferred myself to a slightly better department to get away from the worst of it here.

[mousme.livejournal.com]

That's ch3ster_23_t0es. He's very sweet, but, being a cat, hasn't mastered all the intricacies of the keyboard yet. Besides, he's got three toes too many. You'll have to cut him some slack.

[weephun.livejournal.com]

Poor thing.

[phaedra-amunet.livejournal.com]

OMG r j00 h4x0r1ng m33?

[urthstripe321.livejournal.com]

It's a Kloo! I'm sure the Document is with the Cube somewhere in the City of Domes.
