Feeling really cranky right now, which is about 90 miles west of my normal position. Grrrr. Where’s the sullen smiley? ---

I got about three hours of sleep and wasn’t entirely sober yet when I left for work this morning. I’ve had nothing to do since about 10:30, and over an hour left to work. I feel your pain, sister. ---

I too understand…try fantasizing about torturing your co-workers in new and inventive ways…say, like, skinning 'em with a dull cheese-slicer, stringing 'em up with piano wire, basting them with napalm and putting 'em on a Hibachi. Often works for me. Sometimes I laugh out loud when thinking of stuff like this. What?! ---
