Putting the fear of God into the TPO

I actually didn’t intend to do it, but I inadvertently caused TPO to be scared shitless for my health and my mental capacity. See, it’s like this: during the day – ESPECIALLY lunch hour – I am a bucket of rage, anger and hate. I don’t mean to be and I go in every morning [...]

Same puter, different look

It’s alive… it’s ALIVE!!! After some careful and less reactionary contemplation, I realized that the problem was not that the puter was dead, but that the puter’s video card (which is the only thing on the puter that was not tippety top of the line when I bought it) decided that it didn’t want to [...]

End of an era?

I think – and this is just conjecture at this point – that the big puter is dead. I’m on the lappy right now, which is ok for stuff like “updating the blog” or anything that does not require any heavy processing, but it doesn’t pack the punch that the big puter did… it was [...]

Canned Laughter

It’s been over a week, but this continues to make me nearly die of laughter every time I listen to it (which is embarrassingly often). I’m serial. Also, Manbearpig. That probably wasn’t one of South Park’s better eps, but the phrase Manbearpig makes me giggle like a loon (not that it takes much to make [...]

Sparse

This month, as I’m looking at it, has been sporadic in my blogging at best. These are stressful times at Frog Central. TPO is looking for orders for his next command – and the pickins are slim, we will be finding out any day now if TPO will be renamed CPO (we both think not, [...]

This just in…

Apparently, members of Steely Dan are possibly the most lame and petty people in all of the known universe. I could be wrong, but after reading this, I certainly don’t see how that’s possible.

A milestone I’d rather miss…

So, the thing I had been fearing since I started working finally happened last night. SpecialK called me to finalize some plans after work and when I picked up the phone, I actually answered it saying “Thank you for calling theFrog’sCompany…..” Luckily, I stopped myself before I added the “how may I help you?” – [...]

Famous Last Words

Yeah, I guess I can see that as a definite possibility. Your Famous Last Words Will Be: “I can pass this guy.” What Will Your Famous Last Words Be? EDIT: I can totally spell the word “definite”… no, really.

I’m surrounded by Morons!!

We are doing this training at work on call personality profiles because the company has this new program that can determine the caller’s personality from verbal queues… Scary, yes, but it was developed by NASA, so we’re supposed to be impressed. That’s not why I’m blogging, though… So, I’m in the training class, in a [...]

It’s not just me!

So, I was talking to Quiet Girlie during a rare shared lunch yesterday (usually our schedules do not coincide enough to speak to each other). But, before I go into that, let me just say that lately, I’ve been under the impression that I was just over-reacting to things or being melodramatic. As I’ve said [...]
