Penguin Attack!

Oh. Mah. GAWD!

There are many things I expect when I come to work. It should go without saying that a giant penguin in my chair is not one of them. I laughed until I cried. I'm pretty sure loud guffaws were involved too, as my shrieks captured the attention of half the floor.

To top it off, there was a note on my keyboard (largely obscured by 3 1/2 feet of blowup arctic waterfowl): Tag, you're it! Courtesy of Milosh. (Apparently after all these years the rat fink remembered I have a penguin collection. Yes, it started a decade before I ever heard of Anita Blake.)

He brought it to gelfling33's NYE Game Night party, and she conspired to pull off the prank. Fortunately, she'll play both ends against the middle and help me return the favor, as it were.

Hmmmm, do I send it back with a bonus or find a suitably debased rubber ducky? Hmmmm... either way, it's all kinds of on. Muahahahahahahaha!

Surreal Life

Perhaps it was how the tone of my day was set, but this whole morning's been surreal. Not that it's a bad thing. I'm just hard pressed to stay on task. From one of my favorite song quotes (handily represented in the recent Music Meme), "My mind's been going places without me lately."

ANYway... they're building out our broadcast studio. The end product will be imminently drool-worthy. Said building is taking place less than 15 yards away from my cubie, however. I get serenaded with hammery sawy drilly sounds with frightening regularity. I won't worry unless I hear something akin to:

"C'est un lapin, lapin de bois."
"Quoi?"
"Un cadeau."
"What?"
"A present."
"Oh, un cadeau."
"Oui, oui. Hurry."
"What?"
"Let's go."

And if I see even a tiny wooden rabbit being wheeled anywhere I am heading straight home i-freakin'-mmediately.
