2. Everyone is in a good mood
3. My colleague has brought in the delicious liquer chocolates that she didn't like (so we are now slightly tipsy)

1) Installed Norton AV 2010 on my laptop and I haven't sued Symantec... yet

2) Am drinking Diet Pepsi

3) Realized that Cyclops can't both see and have lasers shooting from his eyes at the same time, so his aim must be pretty crappy.

I don't know why he couldn't. I mean, he's firing lasers from his eyes. I think the standard rules of anatyomy are suspended.

Thank YOU! Hah, I said the same thing (without using anatyomy because...I didn't know the word).

bold mine Lester, that has got to be one of the best tasting subs on the planet when you have to wait a month to get something special like that. You should tell the sub shop, they might give you a free one! "Man, this guy loves our subs so much that he chooses US to have his once a month deviance!"

Lester- be prepared to explain "once a month deviance". Don't want to have to post bail.

I still don't see why Cyclops is alive. All it would have taken is one good blow to the back of a head from any of the many super-strong villains they've battled to wipe him out. Sure, he has concussion lasers coming out his eyes, but that doesn't help stop whatever's behind him.

maybe he always fights standing in a corner?


1) I got a kiss
2) This stupid feature is almost complete
3) Lunch!

It's because Cyclops is an ass, but a very smart one. He picks his fights, he marshalls his troops very well and is damned good at his job, which is staying alive.

I'm not impressed that Wolverine's still alive. Dude has a healing factor and an indestructible skeleton. I'm frankly a bit embarrassed by how often he's come close to death. Ditto The Hulk and all the other guys who can take a super-punch. Cyclops is alive for two reasons. They're both made of brass and for anything else about them, you'll have to ask Emma Frost.

1) My day is half over.
2) New Leverage tonight!
3) I'm eating chips n' dip.

~You are a *Taverner*.
Sometimes patrons want to go where everybody knows their names, though it helps when half of them are named John. When people want to celebrate, or commiserate, they gather to your establishment. You provide the atmosphere, the warmth, rum, and even an ear to bend. Did I mention the rum? Years before the language will be mangled with terms like facilitator and networking and interpersonal communication, you've overseen it all, and broken up a few bar fights, to boot.~

1) I let myself sleep in an hour.

2) The trees were covered in a thick white frost this morning, and when the sun shined on them they looked like they were made of diamonds.

3) I've sold 3 times my daily goal for today, and it's only half over! Cha-CHING!

1) & most importantly: I came home from a 2-day work trip & was able to see my man again
2) my boss was not in today (which meant I got a lot less irate than I would have)
3) a colleague agreed with me that my job does not entail having to be available 24/7.
