Wow! Seriously?

Okay, how is Wonder Woman's new costume considered news to anyone who isn't a hard-core comic book collector?

Why does anyone at all give even one hint of a crap about this?

Seriously? Was it just a slow news day? There's nothing else of substance going on in the world?

Isn't Lindsey Lohan doing something idiotic to get media attention? Or is this her day off?

Just whose fault is it, anyway?

Ah, Fox "news". You remain a source of unbelievable hypocritical bullshit. Don't ever change.

Robbin' Hood

This story is just too strange not to tell.

So I've whined about the fluorescent lights that are giving me splitting (and at times, crippling) headaches.

I'm not the only person in my office (or on my floor) suffering this problem, though I'm unsure if others suffer the same severity I deal with.

I compensate as I can. I have an IKEA-obtained leaf-shaped thing that's supposed to serve as a canopy for a child's bed over my monitor. I wear a baseball cap and sunglasses indoors, all day long.

My office HR department even suggested wearing a hat when I made a formal request for some kind of change.

Big help there.

I found out yesterday that someone decided to run with the hat idea.

One of my co-workers got a classic "witch hat" with some kind of weird dangly things along the rim. It's freakin' huge, but it appears to do the trick for her.

Got me thinking.

In ancient times (aka "college"), I obtained a monk's robe, complete with a detachable cowl/hood. I've used it as a Halloween costume from time-to-time.

Last night, I dug out the cowl and stuffed it into my bag.

So now I'm sitting in my office, wearing a monk's cowl and sunglasses while I work.

And I hate to admit it, but it's actually working to stave off the headache.

The Dark Side is stronger.

Windmills

I chose the wrong career.

I should've been a devotee of Don Quixote.

It feels as though all I seem to do lately is tilt at windmills.

Oh HELL YEAH!!!

Yes please.



I would fly to Japan to see this.

Not so much of the dealing

I couldn't take it.

I was snapping at people like an angry dog and it felt like acid was searing inside my skill.

I packed it in and went home for the day. While I have time-off to burn, I can't keep doing this.

I hate this.

Four more days after this. Whee.

Insert Copious Swearing Here

So they've enabled all the lights in my office, including the ones around my new cubicle.

It was my understanding that they were also going to put in "softer" bulbs that would be easier on the dozen or so of us who have problems.

Didn't happen.

Not even 6am and it feels like someone's trying to drill through my skull in multiple points while an army of gnomes is setting off bombs inside my brain.

Jesus Christ... how is it that there are people who don't find these goddamn things painful?
