teaosporin

So, I'm on this major business trip right now. Staying in a freakin' five-star hotel in a room with a balcony with grape arbour and shit. I have been in meetings saying things like "this is unacceptable," and stuff.

Seriously.

So, I've got my laptop with this wireless card thing in it and this special little key thing that allows me to uplink to our network back in Montreal. The battery lasts about an hour and a half. So, an hour and a half into this gutting session I'm taking part in, my battery is about to die.
Rewind about a month. I had a cut that I was worried was going to bug me, so I had thrown a few band-aids and a tube of Neosporin into my work shoulder bag type thing. No biggie. A little while later, I ran out of loose leaf tea at work, so I threw a bag of that in, took it out at work and threw it into my desk drawer without looking at it. I've since been drinking another kind of tea, so I guess I hadn't realized that the bag had ripped open a little bit. I also usually only put my lunch in my work bag, so I didn't notice that, at the bottom of my bag, there was a hell of leaking Neosporin tube infused with tea brewing.

Until I pulled out my laptop cable to plug into the wall and it's covered with white spoogy looking stuff with brown flaky tea leaves, which undoubtedly look like drugs.

Dude, I am SO professional.

Nasty. I always try to keep my tea and Neosporin apart for that very reason. I hope you didn't drink any of that, by the way.

And about your last post: I'm still here. I never left, really.
