1. It never really is a crisis.
It's all in your head.

3. It's in our heads, and it may be the full moon.
I'm just gazing impotently at all the bat-shittedness going on around me as I try to pace myself.

6. It may, BUT..."when I was just a little girl-
I asked my mother
What will I be?"

It could be I have an advantage because I took an actual "chill pil".

9. There ya go. I work in an office,
and there are deadlines, and there are personality clashes, all sorts of things that can be addressed, but without the level of urgency. Maybe I should surprise everyone with a beer run or something. Maybe that'll shut 'em up. :)

11. Missing staplers, someone not replacing a roll of toilet paper,
a jam in the printer. You know, earth-shatteringly huge matters. I wish the people in my office would calm down, because it's Friday, and because nothing in this job has to be a crisis. :hi:

13. Your office needs some more public nail trimming, flossing, and
consumption of pimiento cheese.

Your office needs some Dorito eating telephone calls.

We have a dozen women in the same room on the same monthly cycle, and we have a full moon tonight. I'm donning my party hat and pulling on my trench coat.

20. I'm sure I've got a tranquilizer gun around here somewhere
sounds like we may have our work cut out for us, huh? :loveya:

I have to go look at something in my dic
tionary-- the three-volume OED set. If a word isn't in there, it probably doesn't exist!

21. We may be forced to use the elephant tranquilizer on
Diana Ross, over there. She's screaming like she just sat on a tack. Who knows, maybe she did! :D
