happy birthday, anne
When I was little, I was in love with Gilbert Blythe. Well, I still am I a little. He and Lloyd Dobbler from Say Anything. Sigh. Anyway, tomorrow Anne of Green Gables celebrates its 100th year of publication.

surviving in the wild
Joy: You have the measles on Oregon Trail. Erica: what? I have the measles? I sooo do not trust you to lead my wagon Joy: I let you rest and I fed you and you still got sick. Other people got over the measles, but not you. If you die, its because you’re just not strong enough to make it on the trail. Erica: or because YOU WERE A CRAPPY WAGON LEADER!!!??? I can’t believe you let me...

its sexual harassment training day!
What with all of the whoring going on, our firm is teaching us how not to sexually harass each other. This, as I am sure you’re aware, is going to be particularly hard for me, as I am well known for sending inapropriate ecards and other degrading behavior…
