<description>Why do people insist on being idiots online?&amp;nbsp; I mean, I know it&amp;#39;s probably because of the anonymity, but do people really consider it fun to act like jerks on the &amp;#39;net?&amp;nbsp; Maybe I&amp;#39;m just way out of the loop.</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;About to go to the mall food court with some other people from work, as we all have errands to run.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;m a little mad because the gyro place is gone, though.&amp;nbsp; Been replaced with something called Taco Time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Okay, so if you can&amp;#39;t tell on the right, I&amp;#39;m a filthy geeky anime fan (and I drew that one, which is why it looks a bit crunchy).&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;m sewing a new costume.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://animebb.jp/production/tatsunoko/img/urashiman_top_02.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;Future Police Urashiman&quot; title=&quot;Future Police Urashiman&quot; width=&quot;380&quot; height=&quot;165&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The one on the right ... I hate pink, but oh, well.&amp;nbsp; I really just want to make it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I can&amp;#39;t wait to get home tonight and get back to work on it, because it&amp;#39;s actually shaping up to be one of my better sewing projects.&amp;nbsp; Maybe I&amp;#39;m finally learning to sew well!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;I wasn&amp;#39;t hungry at all last night, but I&amp;#39;m starving now.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;m trying so hard to resist the urge to get junk food, but I&amp;#39;m not sure if I&amp;#39;ll succeed or not.&amp;nbsp; I sense impending failure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s suddenly very cold in the office.&amp;nbsp; Bleh.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Random people apparently love my comment on The Big I Am -- about having a smaller bottom than the girlfriend of the girl I like. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And I have it on good authority, too!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Only 10.15 here, but I&amp;#39;ve been promised bleu cheese burgers for dinner ... my friends and I are getting together for our usual Tuesday in -- dinner and watch Top Gear, Sarah Jane (both of which we download *gasp!!!*), then Bones and House when they come on over here.&amp;nbsp; What are we going to do when everything goes off the air for the holidays and/or because of the writers&amp;#39; strike here??&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s only 3.30 here!&amp;nbsp; Why???&amp;nbsp; And the part-timer hasn&amp;#39;t gone home yet.&amp;nbsp; She keeps saying she wants to go to the mall to buy some boots or something, but she hasn&amp;#39;t actually done so yet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Two more hours &amp;#39;til I get to go home, and even then I&amp;#39;ve gotta run some errands first.&amp;nbsp; I wish my errands and things would just magically do themselves.&amp;nbsp; Or I wish I had servants.&amp;nbsp; But if I could afford servants I wouldn&amp;#39;t be working a desk job.&amp;nbsp; o_O&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;9.30 AM here in the States.&amp;nbsp; I just went to the doctor to get a shot in the arm, and it still hurts.&amp;nbsp; My office is having a Thanksgiving potluck or some such silliness over lunch.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;My grandmother is bringing me three jars of artichokes or something since I can&amp;#39;t cook for more than two people and I missed out on being the one to bring in plates or a vegetable platter. &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Fell asleep at 1 PM here intending to sleep for 30 minutes ... it&amp;#39;s now 3.25 and I&amp;#39;m supposed to meet some friends for dinner at 7, and then people are coming over *here* at 9.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve also gotta finish cleaning up after my various caged pets, and got some art deadlines to meet ... which are now, erm, all three and a half hours away.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Must NEVER take naps ...&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Now I&amp;#39;m just trying to rack up kudos while I wait for it to be time to go home.&amp;nbsp; Also, some guy is in here hooking up a new phone for our part-time girl.&amp;nbsp; What thrills!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m trying to think of other things I could do at my desk besides kudo-ing myself out:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-- Draw (like my avatar)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-- Send weird e-mails to my family&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-- Start writing a novel&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-- Begin forming my plan for world domination&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
