[00:56:15] <Bytram> Fnord666: !!
[00:57:04] <Fnord666_> Bytram!!
[00:57:08] * Bytram just finished rescheduling stories... had one story scheduled nearly a half-hour early and 3 stories after it that needed to get changed, too.
[00:57:13] <Bytram> how goes it?
[00:57:32] <Fnord666_> It goes reasonably well for a Monday
[00:57:37] <Bytram> likewise
[00:58:04] <Bytram> we were rather short-staffed at work, so it was a bit more exhausting than it needed to be.
[00:58:17] <Fnord666_> Ugh, gotta hate that
[00:58:24] <Bytram> like anyplace else, they are trying to do more, with less.
[00:58:38] <Bytram> it is what it is, right?
[00:58:51] <Fnord666_> That it is
[00:59:06] <Bytram> otoh, it's not what it isn't, too!
[00:59:27] <Fnord666_> no it isn't
[00:59:28] <Bytram> iow: it ain't what it ain't
[00:59:38] <Bytram> No? Oh, no!!!!!!
[00:59:50] <Fnord666_> lol
[01:00:00] <Bytram> I know!!!
[01:00:17] * Bytram waits for it to sink in that 'no' sounds like 'know'
[01:00:30] <Bytram> ;)
[01:00:51] * Fnord666_ groans
[01:00:59] <Bytram> success!!
[01:01:04] <Fnord666_> ;)
[01:01:13] <Bytram> :chuckles:
[01:01:30] <Bytram> laughter is good for heart and soul
[01:01:45] <Bytram> it's like milk
[01:01:50] <Bytram> it does a body good
[01:01:51] <Fnord666_> And is the best medicine, at least according to Reader's Digest
[01:02:18] <Fnord666_> Re milk that's funny given how many people are lactose intolerant
[01:02:23] <Bytram> yup
[01:02:55] <Bytram> don't worry... this, too, will pass!
[01:03:11] <Fnord666_> Ah, a reference to the coffee story?

[01:03:51] <Fnord666_> Must resist the "that's what she said" joke.....
[01:04:24] <Bytram> and on that [brown] note, I'm knackered. Can you handle things from here? Maybe push out one or two more stories? I'm struggling to stay awake.
[01:04:32] <Bytram> yes, that would be good.
[01:04:39] <Fnord666_> Great minds think alike. I subbed the story as well then saw you already had submitted it
