The people who manage my apartment building are ridiculous. They take forever to get any work done, and the hours listed in the leasing office are a scam - they're only actually present about 50% of that time.
We need parking passes for the garage each month, but they won't just put it under our door - we have to pick it up. Only they're never available when they're supposed to be. We don't know they've come in for the month until the parking garage attendent threatens to charge us for having an old parking pass. (And then trying to pick the thing up is a joke because, as noted, the leasing agents are never actually present.)
We were also curious about some packages we were supposed to have received. We found out they were signed for by the people in the office. Get this: They sign for all packages that come in, but do not notify people that they have packages, as a matter of policy. I told my partner we should just stop by everyday and say, "Do we have any packages?" until they get annoyed and work out a better system. Especially this time of year when packages could be arriving that I didn't order and am not tracking (i.e. gifts).
On the upshot, the box of cookies and candy from Italy that I won in a sweepstakes was there. I never win anything, so this is f&**ing awesome.

My favourite lunch has cheered me up a bit. Vietnamese pork roll, take one crusty bread roll, spread mayo and a pork paste on bun, then take three types of pork lunch meat and lay them on the bun, add grated carrot, coriander, spring onion, Spanish onion, chili and a slice of cucumber. Then douse in two types of sauce I am yet to identify... a very light soy and a sweet vinegary type Maybe.
I feel slightly less grumpy with the day now

I want a new Job
One that won't leave me poor
One that won't make me tear out my hair
Or make me feel three inches tall
I want a new Job
One that won't hurt my head
One that won't make my mind feel numb
Or make my eyes go blurry
One that won't make me nervous
Wonderin' what to do
One that makes me feel like I feel when I've been paid
When I finally have money.

Sydney Australia..... It's 1:37 in the afternoon :-)
I think there was an episode of No Reservations that was in Sydney.
Why do we name cities with people names?? Cities should not be named Sydney or Paris or such. Not without having a large illustrious city named Jason. I mean really.

hair is weird. This is why I shave my head.
I concur. But I live in places that get some of the coldest temperatures in the northeast. So I shave my head in the summer and slick my hair back Mike Ness style in the winter so I don't have to deal with it.

So one of my younger coworkers told me a story about how she was mortified by her mom walking in her making out with her boyfriend. After she was done telling me the story I asked her what this guys name was, and she said it was Andy. I promptly asked if I could henceforth refer to her boyfriend as Grabbedy Andy, and she turned bright red. Apparently my smartass response just never turns off.

That's good, because I believe Grumpy was the fifth dwarf. Lunch sounds yummy, but what alternative world had lunch 7 minutes or so ago?
My Dwarf was the 8th Dwarf through the door of a certain hobbits home. I can't remember who was the 5th dwarf to arrive at the unexpected party.
