I am hung over. This wouldn't be a problem, except...
...the goddamned pink elephants are too fucking lazy to do my work. I mean, I sure as hell can't be bothered to do it.

And I'm stuck here late tonight, did I mention that? 2 hours later than normal. And I'm hung over.

Goddamn DTs.

2. Oh God, no.
They'd send me into the "Employee Assistance Plan."

Then I'd have to talk to some shrink about my *feelings*

If I wanted to think about my feelings, I wouldn't have to drink! :7

5. ah therein lies the problem
some Jungians would say that people drink to "get to" their feelings.
You can talk to me ;) On second thought, maybe not. Al, you would be a trip as a client.

11. no I wouldn't
I would wonder though at your complexity. :hug:

Hope your hangover is better. Is this the hangover from Sunday? Yesterday I felt like I had a hangover and I barely drank anything all weekend. Guess it was that holiday week-end syndrome.

13. Sunday? Good Lord, no.
This is the hangover from last night's Let's See How Much Stoli Hedges Can Drink on a Worknight contest.

I won. Of course, I was the only competitor. You know, for a while. Then there was another me. I think.

14. 'Rat, you can't be fired from being retired
I think, though, that would be even worse advice in the line of your former occupation.

You at least keep your bullet in your shirt pocket, instead of in the chamber, right? Just like sherrif Andy taught, ya, right?

23. Can't be fired?
You haven't met my wife, half Mexican, half German. Very Scary.
I take the bullet out once a month and clean it.

6. Try this.
1 glass tomato juice, 1 raw egg, 2 teaspoons Tabasco. Mix ingredients together and drink as quick as possible.
Your stomach will make an immediate decision. Either way your gonna feel better.

16. Door? What is that?
Are you referring to that portion of my cubicle in which there is no partition set up? The bit via which I enter and exit my cubicle?

No, I can't lock that without disrupting the space-time continuum.

17. Go to an empty cubicle
Rip off one of the walls

Take it to your cubicle

Make it your door

Voila!


Oh well... it would work if everyone in your office were short, anyway.

21. I had mashed potatoes for lunch.
I could only eat half of them, because they were those horrible instant potato bud crap. Each bite made me want to die. I suppose I shouldn't expect much more from the corporate cafeteria. Still....
