Think Alice might be on to a certain cubicle mate of mine’s internet chicanery. Just writing this down in case in comes back later in a debate that I knew before the hammer dropped.
Kids, tweet at your own risk.

Puzzled - Back to the Future 2 Casino Stairs
After my mammoth success with solving the Die Hard 3 water jug puzzle and the Little Big League open-ended word problem, I took some well deserved time off.
When I came back to the game, I thought, hey, why not tackle one of the big visual tricks in movie cinema and really cement my place as the internets go-to movie fixer.
But I flew too close to the sun, because Back to the Future: Part 2...

Joke's On Alice
Alice apparently put out a memo saying we sucked for sucking at our jobs and told us that as punishment she wouldn’t be choosing an Employee Of The Month. Ders and Adam and Montez seem pretty bent out of shape about this, but I couldn’t care less. I actually thought we stopped doing employee of the months six months ago.

Watchin' CATS
Decided to watch CATS after finding that sweatshirt this morning to see if it’s something I want to rep. I’m about halfway through (1998 performance, directed by David Mallet) and I can’t decide whether I like it or not.
It’s definitely pretty fucking weird. Ders was sort of right about being creeped out by grown - ups dressed in cat costumes who are singing and dancing....

CATS Sweatshirt
I made Ders stop at Starbucks so I could use the bathroom on the way to work and when I was in there I found this awesome sweatshirt:
I asked if it belonged to anyone there and nobody claimed it, so now it’s all mine. I’m definitely going to wash it when I get home because I don’t know where it’s been. Ders keeps telling me that CATS is really stupid and that he...

Burning Man Update
I’m still really mad at Karl for abandoning me before Burning Man, I may never actually forgive him. However, I got a call from him today and he apologized and told me that while he was trying to climb onto one of the floats he slipped and fell and broke his arm. He felt that it happened because of what he did to me and that it was karma.
I don’t know if it was karma or the fact that...

“It’s not like, like now that me and Anna broke up I’m now choosing...”
– Seth Cohen, “The Heartbreak”, OC Season 1.
So romantic. I’m not even afraid to say it. Ders was going to post it, but his eyes are still kind of teary, so he said I could.

Tragic Burning Man News
Just got a call from Karl. Expected it to go something like this:
KARL: “Hey, Blazer. Meet me outside in an hour and we’ll go to Burning Man and have the best weekend of our lives.”
ME: “Sounds good, Karl. Thanks for picking me up. See you in a bit.”
Instead the call went like this:
ME: “Hey, Karl. Where ya at, bud?”
KARL: “Oh man. Just went...

Burning Man BURNING MAN!
Bought 10 loafs of bread and 5 lbs of cheese slices, Karl says he has an iron we can plug into the van and an ironing board for a work station.
We’re gonna be grilled cheese kingpins, he says, which is a little weird for me since I really want to enjoy the scene and ride something like this—
But hey, if I gotta do a little work to earn my place in the Rape Van’s hollowed...

Might Start Using A Handkerchief
Saw an old man outside Cold Stone Creamery with a handkerchief and he looked so cool that I think I might start using one too.

GONNA SEE THE WOOD MAN BURN!
Karl totally said I can sneak through inside his hollowed-out secret van compartment, which he says they never check anyway. He doesn’t even have to hide his ‘supplies’, at least not like he would if he were driving to some corporate music shithole festival.
Apparently they’re really strict about having a ticket to get in, but then ultra...

SAVED
Jillian dropped me a SOLID and drove me to the Urgent Hair Center this afternoon. She told Alice she had her period, which is huge since she can only use that excuse once a month, twice if she thinks Alice didn’t hear her the first time. I owe you one, Jilly-Bell, and I’ll keep that period-secret between you and me.
Turns out the “lice” was just sea salt and chip...

Uh Oh (lice?)
My head is itching like crazy ever since I took a nap at the mattress store and I think I might have lice. I wouldn’t put it past Amir to intentionally soil the mattress he knew I liked, either, since it was pretty clear to both of us I wasn’t going to buy.
I had lice when I was a kid and my mom mad me take a shower outside with the hose and lice shampoo. It was really cold and also...

Adding up old bills, trying to make some calls, got me all tugged out today.
Gonna take a quick 15, wander over to the mattress store and take a quick 30.
I’ll be back before anyone knows I’m gone, though, I’ve been doing this on the reg for the last 6 weeks. Amir at the mattress store is starting to get suspicious, but I gave him a soft-commit on buying a new twin bed...

My Beliefs
andersholmvik:
I’ve always been a firm believer in the separation of church and state.
I always thought it was church and steak. I mean, you never eat steak in church, at least not where my parents took me to services. Checks out.
You might wanna confirm that one, Ders, less you look like a fool.

Additional Fear
I know I said what my biggest fears were this morning, but I just remembered another one; a doll coming to life while I sleep and killing me.
It all starts with their dead eyes starting to move, and following me around a room.
Look at these things—>
If they turned in your direction, try telling me you wouldn’t piss your pants. No? You’re a fucking liar.
