Have any of you been able to do a damn thing useful today? I certainly haven't!

It's like 9/11, only I'm the only one in the office that's in shock...

[Willy Lee]

8. I changed the server backup tapes this morning. Yippie ay o...

ki-ay.

Pretty much it, sweetie.

[redqueen]

9. Yes

A billing request here... a confirmation there.

[NoEvilTony]

10. I keep glaring at my coworker

She is a hard core repub and although she is not gloating or rubbing it in our faces, I still keep getting the urge to go over and choke her.

I have NEVER felt this way before. I am a really mellow person. But, wow, I am just filled with emotion.

As for real work, I will just sit and glare today.

And I am really really thankful for DU!

[JimmyJazz]

11. not a thing - except reach out to all of you to let you know how

sorry I am about the ban on gay marriage amendments - what a fucking kick in the teeth. I told Josh that I want to host a commisuration party in Rehoboth Beach for you - I know you are all still welcome there! :hug:s and :*es

12. I couldn't work, so I looked up a song . . .

I remembered from back in the day. It's by James Taylor, and I thought it was appropriate. He was writing about Richard Nixon, but he could just as well be writing about *. It pretty much sums up my feelings today.

Let It All Fall Down

Sing a song for the wrong and the wicked and the strong and the sick, as thick as thieves.
For the faceless fear that was never so near, too clear to misbelieve.
Well the sea is jumping salty and the porpoise has the blues,
my recollection's faulty and I cannot find my shoes.
And my wiring is misfiring due to cigarettes and booze,
I'm behind in my dues, I just now got the news.
He seems to tell us lies and still we will believe him,
then together he will lead us into darkness, my friends.

Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.

The man says stand to one side, son, we got to keep this big ball rolling.
It's just a question of controlling for whom the bell is tolling.

Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.

There'll be suffering and starvation in the streets, young man.
Just where have you been, old man? Just look out of your window, man.

Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.

Well, it ain't nobody's fault but our own,
still, at least we might could show the good sense
To know when we've been wrong, and it's already taken too long.
So we bring it to a stop then we take it from the top,
we let it settle on down softly like your gently falling snow
or let it tumble down and topple like the temple long ago.

Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down.

13. We're all a bit distracted...

...but so busy. We've been working hard with periodic breaks to console one another.

[kmla]

16. Nope. Not really...

Kinda glad it's a slow day, actually.

[sniffa]

18. i've been abLe to heave/puke

not work or eat though

[Susang]

19. Intermittantly

Unfortunately, everyone keeps coming over and wanting to talk politics, which I no longer wish to do today. So I put on the Mosquitos' new album "Sunshine Barato" and turned up the volume on my computer. Hopefully that will convey the proper message to all that my door (if I had one, anyway) is closed for the day.

20. I collapsed in a heap on my desk

crying my eyes out when I heard Kerry was conceding. I couldn't help it. Fortunately I have an office with a door I can close.

But about 5 minutes later I had to go to a meeting to discuss the results of an employee survey we took a few months ago.

I sat there completely dazed and glassy-eyed through almost the whole thing.

I fucking hate everyone at work today. I want to throttle everyone here. I hate their grinning and laughing and high fives and jokes. I want to tell each one of them how much I'm going to enjoy hearing about their sons asses being blown off in Iraq since they wished all of this on us. I have very little sympathy for anyone.

This has got to be one of the worst days of my life.
