I take it back...

Okay, this entry won't be cheerful. Nor will it be long.

I need earplugs. Everyone at the office is being loud today. It's not even a uniform loud, which I could eventually just ignore. No, they come individually and are loud at my desk, and then they wander off again.

I either need earplugs or a large-caliber automatic weapon. Either would be good right now.

I have to leave for the dentist in fifteen minutes' time. That's going to be exciting. I chipped a filling the other day, so now I have to get it fixed. Joy. More money I can't afford. Do I have insurance? Why NO. I'm a temp, and my boss just made deprecating sounds at me which were supposedly meant to make me feel better about the fact that she still hasn't hired me after nine months.

Gah.

Okay, back to work. Enough negativity for now.

Attempt at adding positivity - we really need to make a date for when Rich and I are in town. Before Christmas is getting kinda full, but we'll be back in town on the 29th. We're doing New Years with Mackayhotep, and have nothing else planned for those four days. Are you around at all?

I am not only around, but I have four days off after the 31st. So the weekend and the Monday and Tuesday.

I shall be doing New Year's at Mackayhotep's as well. :)

Large-caliber?

Actually, in an office environment, a large-caliber weapon would not be the ideal choice for a murderous rampage. You'd want something shorter and less bulky, with a large clip in a smaller caliber, to keep the recoil down and enable you to carry more rounds. It'd be less cumbersome and let you react more quickly to your more heroic co-work targets.

Good point. Can I switch out for a flamethrower?

Flamethrower? Ooo! Kudos on the massive terror and moral horror with nampalm and extra extreme prejudice factor. However, sneaking them past security in the lobby can be a bit of a problem...

"no, pesticide spraying is part of my job descrip... wait, no, what I meant to say is that it's a vacuum cleaner! Yeah! That's the ticket!"
