I came home from work today, sat on my couch, and accepted my current fate. So maybe the mortgage company is calling for last months payment, and maybe I'm going to have to work an evening part-time job working minimum wage (which I haven't done since 2000) - but hey, new people to meet and...

I’ve been a little quiet lately … I’ve been planning my escape. Unfortunately I didn’t get further than my foot halfway through a door. It did feel a bit liberating, and the thought of actually leaving was extremely frightening.
Last month I applied for...

Many moons ago I posted Cubicle Dweller's list of Office Etiquette and even considered sending it to all of my co-workers.
Recently there had been an increase of dirty dishes left in the kitchen sink, to the extreme that someone made a pretty little sign stating that dishes not washed...

I found this on a friend's blog:
Prison vs. Work
In prison you spend the majority of your time in an 8' x 10' cell. At work you spend most of your time in a 6' x 8' cubicle.
In prison you get three meals a day. At work you only get a break for one meal and you have to pay for that...

I think most Cubies find that Thursday is a great day - tomorrow is Friday and that means we are almost through the week.
As I sit here listening to Muppet Techno I'm moderately amused that my co-workers moving about almost seem to be dancing to the rhythm pouring out of my ipod. ...

... a little eavesdropping.
As I stumbled my way toward the restroom this morning I heard a stern yet pleading voice down an adjacent hallway. It was the Gastric Cougar - in all her 60's swirl dress knee high pleather boot glory having a very heated conversation on her cell phone.
We...

I've never been one to use the toilet while I'm on the phone unless I absolutely have to, or it's my best friend.
Today, I really didn't have a choice.
The janitor came into the bathroom just as I began spelling relief and at the same moment a voice came on over her walkie talkie, " ......

It's no secret, but if you look close enough you'll see my little horns holding up my broken halo ...
Just another day at the office, right? With the weather so moody I'm feeling a bit impish, thank god it's casual Friday, but again, even though I'm wearing comfy jeans and a fuzzy...

As I sit here listening to the window washer clump clump against the windows, I have begun to crave cheese. Cheese?! Of all things ... especially when I'm a lactard (which doesn't stop me from enjoying dairy products - just puts those in close proximity in danger of hazardous...

The Office Fashion Police (that would be me) is on a mission!
You might remember a few blogs back that I reported being hopped up on allergy medicine and believing I might have slept through to Halloween when I observed a hot mess in f* me boots and a polyester 60's style go-go dress...

Yep, I work with a bunch of crazy cats :) Someone even spooked out one of our elevators. We've already done our rounds of trick or treating, but this year we skipped the main building and their 6th floor Legal Department ... last year they starred at us like we were crazy. ...

And boy do I feel good!
You'd think that a lack of sleep would make me into a complete nonparticipant with this world. Normally it does, but the last four nights have been different.
The first night I couldn't sleep due to a little yapping dog who recently found his...

I just finished visiting the restroom (why do we call it a restroom? I mean, it's not like we do much rest in there ... a lot of the time the noises I hear from the other side of the stall wall are far from that. Maybe I should pick up a bit of grammar from the UK and begin calling it...

This morning I woke up a bit congested and out of a very deep medicated sleep. I drifted through my morning routine in a fog and eventually was stepping out of the elevator onto my floor. A woman walked in front of me, and due to the fact that I typically look at the floor as I walk I...

Today there is a tiny robot walking down the aisles. The girls following it are claiming it is for spying - but you can hear it's little robotic joints revving on the other side of the floor, not much of a spy I say! The thing has passed me several times now and it strongly resembles...
