I think there are classes for that at the health club upstairs.

This is where you can start ignoring me...
I HATE HATE HATE my coworker Hemroid. I hope a reindeer sticks his antlers up her ass. My boss asked me if I knew where she kept a particular file. I looked for it and didn't see it. So he asked me to call her and ask her where it is. So I did (she's at the jobsite and at home today). She said, 'There are a few of those papers in this file, some over here, some over here... I've never kept track of that account.' So I pull this, that, and the other file and give them all to my boss who is standing behind me waiting. I say, everything is in here but it's completely random. If you like, I can call the bank and get everything from them together. He says, I might have you do that, but for now let me see what I can find in here. I scurry away.
Anyway, she just called and asked me which months were missing from the statements. I said, I have no idea. I just gave him everything. She's like WHAT?! You didn't pull out the statements from the other files?! Me - No. I just gave him everything to go through and offered to contact the bank. She - Well, you SHOULD have pulled them out. You really should. Now he's going to be upset with me for not having it all in one place!
I know. It's not my problem. It's her job. But also, IT'S HER JOB. Why is she going off on me for not doing a good enough job covering up her own fiasco? Grrr.

I love cobbler. I'm sure I mentioned I made peach cobbler a few weeks ago. It was spectacular, if I do say so myself, especially considering it isn't peach season.

I belatedly realized I should've called you when I was racking my brain trying to remember what it was called.

That's not really gibberish, is it? This is gibberish:

No, but it's what dudes use to internationalize software, apparently (like to show that the strings can be changed for translation).

I rented a car today and it is such a color as to maybe earn me some extra $$ as a gypsy cab. Weird that they would make a rental of a compact car in Taxi-Cab/OSHA Yellow.
I leave for the Great Lakes state tomorrow AM.

And yes, I am v. selfish to be concerned with my commute when someone may have lost their life. :(

This was pretty much Jenny's reaction. Though I do have to say that I don't think she knows the extent of what's up.

Uh oh. I didn't think this had an impact on CTA, though. In fact, CTA is supposedly honoring Metra tickets tonight.

hello chicago ILX people! i'm not in chicago. i'm in toronto. i haven't read any of this thread so i have no idea what i'm interrupting... but anyhoo...
i just found out i'm going to chicago tomorrow! so i need knee-jerk, off-the-cuff, top-of-your-head suggestions for what i should do tomorrow (saturday) night. i'm staying at the hilton downtown (michigan ave), so i assume i'm fairly central, but probably all the cool stuff is further away. i'm not afraid of cabs. i won't be heading out until 10-11ish, and would prefer a cool bar/spot rather than a gig.
ideas?

There isn't much to do downtown. I'm not feeling particularly inspired so I'm just going to state the sort-of-obvious and say go to Wicker Park (northside Damen stop on the Blue Line). There's lots to do there. The Damen/Division area has bars, but it'll also be clogged with hipsters. There are a few good spots, like Small Bar, Rainbo, and Gold Star. Others will probably dispute my choices (and rightly so) but that's what springs to mind at the moment.
Keep us updated, maybe some of us will come out?
