The Rabies

Today I learned the cat that bit me doesn’t have the Rabies, so I don’t have the Rabies! Hooray!

Don't catch the rabies

Padded Walls and Wings

Anyone else miss the nice, blue, padded walls of the elevator? I thought that it added a nice homey feel to the place. Now every time I get into the elevator, it just feels cold and unwelcoming :’(.

Not as nice as our blue ones, but still padded

In honor of our lost padded walls (and because it’s beery Wednesday), I vote that we mourn (celebrate) by having wings and beer at that bar near Adam’s apartment (also gives me an excuse to get my bike ^_^).
Who’s in?

S-to the u-to the Su..Su..Su Sushi?

Sushi Good!

Sushi Good!

Doug missed sushi last week, so we decided we are going to go again tonight. Assuming he still wants to go and won’t bail on us again. : P I think it’ll be Suehiro tonight as most people seem to like that better than JeJu or Nemo’s.

Tour Groups

So how many of you have seen a tour group today? Am I the only one thinking we need these signs?

This seems especially pertinent as I sit in 120, which has a cord to separate lines outside it...

I also felt the need to post something as there has not been anything new in the past day or so. It made me a sad panda :’(

Do You Have Any Questions for Me? (a.k.a. Just Because There Wasn’t One!)

That's So Funny!

That's So Funny!

So, you’re being interviewed for a well-paying job and the interviewer is about to wrap it up. So she asks you the same old question they always ask at that specific point:

“Do you have any questions for me?”

A good suggestion I read in a book yesterday is that you reply by saying:

“Gee, I know that I’m supposed to ask a question, but the people I interviewed with this morning answered all my questions. I guess you’re off the hook!”

Does anyone else find that to be funny?
