Do not fuck with my office.
It is my territory.
I live here for most of my week.
It's like a very small, organized second home.
I get rather territorial about it.
I was happily devouring a taco today when a spider decided to do her best Mission Impossible impersonation and come down on a thread onto my remaining taco. Unwilling to relinquish my taco to the eight legged feind, I scoured my desk for a method to defeat the newfound foe.
Are there any napkins to crush it with? No
Are there any books to smash it with? No
Should I take off my shoe? No, I just had them polished.
Post it notes! Eureka!
Just as the spider is about to land on the unsuspecting taco, I grab the nearest stack of post it notes and take a couple off the top. I then proceed to flick a couple at the spider ninja-star style. To my surprise, one of the post-it notes hits the spider squarely in the abdomen and sends it flying across the room.
I let out a gutteral yell, leapt over my desk, and brought down the remaining stack of post-its on the critter, cleanly slicing it in half. Without missing a beat, I use one post-it to scoop its remains onto the remaining post-it note stack and then throw them all away.

But the dramatic awesomeness of the event leaves me to appreciate this incredible series of feats.
Good show, man.
Also, more info on this birthday thing? I'm curious.

It was relatively extremely awesome to be sitting at work reading slashdot, send a random text out to a few friends, and than later (still at work) read it on their LJ. hehehe
