lagilman*sigh* Had long post typed up, and server went and lost it. Another reason to wince.
In addition to having the worst sinus headache known to mankind, and a manuscript that needs a line-edit before it goes into production, and they need it _today_. And we have a 90 minute meeting scheduled for this afternoon.
I am meerkat. Hear me whine.
And then there are the death-wish idiots who are going to get bitch-slapped soon for starting up the chant of "choke, choke" regarding my grandfather's beloved Sox. Yesterday's game was a loss, yeah, but hardly a 'choke.'
Then again, what do you expect from a certain type of Yankee fan? Having cause for arrogance is the best reason NOT to be arrogant, and not just because the gods love a good pratfall.
And speaking of bitch-slapping, I had to explain the term to someone this weekend. I was astonished. I thought it was one of thiose universally-understood terms.
Apparently, not for Canadians. Who knew?
Of course, it could be worse. We could all be Cubs fans. *wince wince wince*
