I love idleness. I love to sit and read or watch movies or just do nothing. I am almost never bored. This job has been such a godsend to my need for idleness. I can make enough in three or four days' work to keep on top of my bills for the week, and every week or two, the boss gives me a short week. Last week, she gave me Friday and Monday, and today she told me I don't have to come in tomorrow. I'd love to have the money, but having the day off is *such* a blessing to me that I can't work up any disappointment. Cute-poet-chick worries that I won't have enough money, but I'll tell you -- if it's a choice between a bit less money and working my ass off full-time, well, the choice is pretty easy for me.

There's a "special" coffeepot at work. I mean, there are regular and decaf
pots, but there's a third one for the engineers. It's double (triple?)
strength, and usually there's a cute sign on it. Last week it was "Warning:
Spent Nuclear Waste -- may make you glow" -- you get the picture. Anyhow,
yesterday I came in and it was labeled "Osama Blend: Dark and Doomed" or some
such nonsense. Well, when no one was around, I replaced it with a sign that
said "Peaceful Solution Brew: You feel a little powerless, but no one gets
killed". Today, a new one has been added that begins "To the pacifist:" and
says I have no logical sense and am choosing capitulation. Many capital letters
and exclamation points were sacrificed in the making of this sign.

Thanks to a wonderful-smart-beautiful friend who was feeling more pithy than I today, the new sign will say:

"Hawkish Brew: Sure, it's strong, but it has a bitter aftertaste."

and I added

"(WAR [not-equals-sign] JUSTICE)"
