Steve Guttenberg REALLY can’t get enough of the show. He was back last Friday. He also found time to film this promo. I like how the people I work with are all sitting alone in the dark and not making eye contact like it’s a matinee porn.

Now if only we can [...]

Ashley, Josh, and I are in charge of ordering from Staples. In the past I viewed this as a chore. Then I discovered that Staples sells food.

Basically, we’ve turned the office into a kind of 9th floor bomb shelter.
This is the carb cubby, or, as I like to call it, the carby hole. I spent [...]

You know how some things seemed like a good idea at the time but weren’t? In 8th grade, the girls in my class used to hold their breath and tighten their arms across their stomachs until they passed out. This is just one example. There are others. Remember serfdom? Or DDT? How about [...]

RIP Mr. Orange Cluster Head. That’s what our boss named the discount gimp goldfish. He was thrown in the East River (the fish, not our boss) and popular office theory holds that Mr. Orange Cluster Head wasn’t really dead, that he’s revived on brackish water, biding his time in a tire, and getting preternaturally stronger.
I’ve [...]

(G)old Fish

Today my boss ran out to get fish. After cleaning the tank where algae goes to die, he decided–on a Friday at 1PM–that we absolutely had to have more fish.
An hour later, he came back with this:

Here’s some shameless pugs:

And here’s some shameless plugs:
My friend and co-worker Josh is lead singer of the band Soundscape Soul. They’ve already advanced to the final round of a Famecast competition (think online American Idol) and if they make the top five, Josh and the band fly to Austin to record a live one hour [...]

Happy first day of Spring! I can’t wait to wear a sundress and have to shave my legs.
My collective unconscious told me it was here. Last night, I dreamt of brooms (like in Disney’s Sorcerer’s Apprentice) and plastic shoe organizers. Spring is about awakening space: personal, professional, residential, outdoor. Give me that first 65 degree [...]

Steve Gutenberg definitely came to Friday’s show. He was wearing a grey Jones Beach t-shirt and jeans.
I’m extending the contest until Monday night since guesses are still “trickling in” and no one has quite gotten it right yet. Fellow employees who helped time him or who were with me when Steve invited us to join [...]

Lately, I haven’t had much opportunity to write, let alone time celebrities in the bathroom. Plus, when Rue McClanahan missed the matinee, I took it personally.
But it’s time. Time to time. Time to get back on the horse or the bike or the bandwagon or the toilet or whatever else you can get back [...]

Five

Josh tagged me and asked that I write five things about myself that most people don’t know. So…
1)In 29 years, I’ve had two valid psychic predictions. (I say “valid” because I often make unsubstantiated psychic claims.) Both times involved a car crash. The first time, my mom was picking me and my best [...]
