First World Problems

Stopped in at the liquor superstore today and grabbed a bottle of Aberlour and a bottle of Balvenie CC. This creates two FWPs.

1. I have to wait until tonight to drink even though they're out in my car.
2. I'll have to decide which one to open first.

1. This is 'Merica, you can drink at work. Just tell whoever has an issue with this that somebody you don't know from the internet said it was okay
2. Open both and have a little taste. Decide which one is currently what you would like to drink and go with it.

Aberlour. Cask-strength?

M_Six · 11-13-2014, 08:20 PM

Aberlour 12. Double Cask. I like it.

UncleWede · 11-14-2014, 09:18 AM

I have that same bottle, and it's just not getting smaller since I am spoiled by the A'bunadh (I just can't get my lips around that name, so I always go with cask-strength) I always end up saying albondigas (meatball soup)

I just spend $496 on a tire this AM. Would have rather spent that on sunglasses. HMPH.

These onion rings I'm eating for lunch are making a mess of my desk, and I can't find anyone from house keeping to come clean up all these crumbs.

Noted for a future buy.

The Harris Tweed jacket I picked up in the UK is not playing well with the Scottish wool sweater I bought over there to go with the jacket. The rough jacket is causing severe pilling on the sweater. Serious FWP.

Dammit.

(I know, I know, "How Preppy" right? But I do work at a university, so I'm allowed.)

They are moving me into an office half the size of my current, today.

Fuckin' Monday, never fails.

Just keep a close eye on your stapler buddy. If that disappears...well....

I assume you are asking for a raise and extra bacon for your troubles?

Just be glad you don't have to share an office with a chain smoking, smokers cough, smelly coworker.

I gave my assistant a couple of personal days this week and I now have to do everything on my own. I may have to just go home because I can't completely remember where anything in the office kitchen is since I don't normally have to make myself any coffee once I'm here.

How does one go about getting an assistant? How much do they cost? Can they do your banking and stuff like that?

squishy · 11-17-2014, 10:50 AM

I hired an assistant once. But I thought they were supposed to give happy endings after each work day?? Apparently not the case...

Now, I have no assistant

Hell yeah I did...., it was denied though.

Who moved our bacon thread?

I received a package of bison that I ordered. It included bison bacon, and bacon-wrapped stuffed chicken breasts. I had the bison rib-eye on Saturday night, but over-cooked it.

Mmmkay...I'm gonna need you to give me your man card mmmkay?

And I shall return it promptly upon receiving a properly cooked ribeye from you. Or bacon.
