Iron Fist

I got up this morning to check my email, because I’m an addict and can’t not check my email in the morning. My computer tried to tell me that my network cable was unplugged. “Goddamn it, no it isn’t!” I raged after checking my connection.

I rebooted, because 90% of Windoze problems are solved by rebooting the damn thing. Still no dice. Then I got a bright idea and dug up my Comcast bill. I could have sworn I’d had service for less than a month, but apparently I’m already overdue. Fuck.

Anyway, I’ll get to the bottom of this. Right now I’m using a Personal Telco node at the Natural Capital Center to crank out this post. What I’m saying is that this is going to be my excuse if my site doesn’t get updated this week, not because I’m completely lazy.

I rolled into work a few minutes late this morning (actually, I’ve been a few minutes late every day this week — I’m working on it, okay?) and as I went to tuck in my shirt I realized that I’d forgotten my belt. Well, fuck it, it’s casual Friday, right? I was already wearing jeans and some loafers, so I decided I was going to go ahead and walk around all day with my shirt hanging out.

Then, I decided I didn’t feel like wearing shoes, either. So I kicked those off underneath my desk. What’s the deal with having to wear shoes at work, anyway? Who decided that was a requirement? I’m clearly more comfortable without them.

I settled back into my horribly un-ergonomic office chair with my cup of coffee, and since I was reading Slashdot anyway, I put my shoeless feet up on top of the computer underneath my desk. That thing is nearly worthless anyway, so it works better as a footrest than at doing the mediocre job it’s supposed to do.

Casual fucking Friday. I like it. Maybe next week I just won’t wear pants, either.

Don’t tell me you never thought about doing this (especially if you’ve ever seen Benny and Joon):

Is your stovetop broken? Have you just moved, and don’t have your own frying pan yet? Or are you just looking for an alternative way to make a grilled cheese sandwich? Here’s how to make your next lunch with an iron…

I have a headache.

So don’t ask me any questions.
