Happy Birthday.. what are you now.. 25?  I suspect they will be dicking around but we don't want to know the rest.

I don't actually know! I like to think he did. And ghost, do you mean to imply dicking around on f13 isn't fun?

Happy Birthday.. what are you now.. 25?  38.  I kind of hate Friday birthdays, usually we go out to dinner etc. but on Fridays I'm usually too tired from the work week for anything interesting. Probably just order in and watch some Archer or play SWTOR or something. Oh, and beat the Phillies.

My past relationship experience has taught me that communication with one's SO would only be improved with a backspace key, so I understand completely.

Well, we met on a text based MUD, so the tappity tap tap is just tradition at this point. We don't sit in the living room in silence, though. We have a COMPUTER room.  Ingmar is celebrating his birthday by playing a multiplayer CK2 game. It makes him happy, who am I to judge? EDIT: Birthday update: Now his birthday download of The Secret World has started. And we're getting ice cream! We know how to party in this house. EDIT TWO: Now Lizzie decided to celebrate by throwing up everything she had ever eaten in her life.

I could tell a lot of thought and care went into it. Our cats are givers.

Yeah, we are oppressors that keep them indoors at all times, so the best they can do is murder spiders. Which Lizzie does mercilessly. She doesn't share them with us, though, so I guess she doesn't love us. :(

Be grateful, my sister's cat routinely drags half dead and twitching bloody rodents, up to and including baby rabbits, into my sister's bed.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Is this where we were discussing what to wear at work? I was thinking about it today, so here's my take. Simply put, if you want to play ball, you have to wear the uniform.
I suppose there are a couple types of companies. Smaller ones work like a sports team. Everyone is working together for a common goal, and the opposition is Everyone Else. In this case, you wear the uniform that is agreed on. Maybe suits, maybe jeans, but you aren't going to have a good team if there are mavericks wearing ties in a office where people are expected to wear beards and hoodies. Yes, "whatever I found in the hamper" is a uniform if everyone does it.
The larger companies are more toward the "George R. R. Martin" end of the scale. If you work in the kitchens, you wear what the kitchen wenches wear instead of finery: uniform. If you are someone that spends time dealing with the court, you have to wear something accepted, or you will end up wherever people are that dress like you. Furthermore, the "higher" you rise, the more important it is to play The Game, which means you wear the uniform.
One thing I have noticed is relaxing of said uniform in the corporate environment. And more tattoo's in middle management. It warms my heart.

No Nerf, but I put a link to this very thread and I said that you all can guarantee for my purity. I even mentioned your case, and see if they can take a look at your lawn from a Michigan perspective.

That is very true, I haven't had to wear a jacket and tie in quite a while. I could get away with jeans occasionally if I wasn't at a client site and if I wasn't trying to look like I should be trusted to lead.

We've got a dachshund that points scorpions. She does this funky little dance with them, too, but I'm not about to let her get stung on the nose to see if she could finish it out. Well, she used to point scorpions. Now she's blind due to two dislocated lenses.

My beagle has an ongoing rivalry with the local squirrell. Well, I call it rivalry. I'm pretty sure that squirell is a dead rodent if he's not quick enough, and the beagle's come close.
My older dog doesn't chase anything anymore, but if there's a dead bird lying around she's all over that. And if there's a hole in the ground? She can be trusted to find it, lay down with her face in it, and take a nap. Which is why her water bowls are always kind of muddy.
Currently my beagle is spending his time scratching and whining at the front door. He basically makes a pass at it every few hours. The wifey's in Chicago this week, and the beagle is not pleased with this turn of events.

Seeing as it's on the page every time I load this up; can someone explain the baseball gif to me ? I'm not getting it.

I'm no sports fan but I think it's because the Cowboys scored a lot of home runs against the Lakers.

It's kinda like Cricket, only the games are slightly shorter and more boring.

The Gif. Not the game.
I understand the game. It's like Blernsball, only harder to play.

It's not my birthday yet, but a cat threw up on my pillow to wake me at 7am. Joy. And it's now official, I'll get 2 days at home before having to head to Maryland to work. I haven't been home since January, so this sucks. At least in theory I'll have intarwebs there.
