According to the old clock on the wall I’ve been at my real work desk for ….carry the three….oh, about 14 1/2 hours. My goal is to get out of here in a couple of hours, around 1-ish, because I have to be back here at 6am-ish to deal with programers on the elitist east coast. After which I’m guessing I’ll be here until 7pm-ish when I have to leave to go to dinner with mrsTbogg, and the L&T Casey for the L&T’s 22nd birthday.
Come and take it, Galtian Overlords…
Thursday Basset Blogging is iffy right now because I haven’t been able to pick up my Mac from the geniuses yet.

Don’t worry about us, TBogg. Get outa there and have time with the family.
Happy birthday to L&TC.
So, you’ve got time to put up a stock photo of cubicles, but you threaten to deprive us of bassets because of “work,” and because your computer is “in the shop,” and it’s your daughter’s “birthday?” Feeble excuses, TBogg. Feeble. We will require a note from the bassets documenting that all this is, in fact, true.
You get to sleep for 3 to 4 hours? Looter.
Happy Birthday, L&TC.
Now, now, Zep…I have faith that when TBogg comes back from cubicle Hell, he will bless us with both some lovely basset pics, and a new Shakira mashup. He’s just that way, y’know!
Happy Birthday, L&TC!
He could have posted a “graphically unforgiving” photo, invited FDL Central Command’s moralists over and 200 comments later we’d never have known TBogg was away…
Yes, but do you have the right cover sheets for your TPS reports?
mmmm Yeaaaaaaaah …. I’m gonna need you to come in on … Saturday. /Lumbergh
Happy Birthday, L&TC. Get the work done, T. We’ll be fine.
(sob… no bassets?)
Comrades! Get teh bassets! To teh barricades!
This is unacceptable. You will be reported to the relevant authorities.
I think this happened on Andy Richter Controls the Universe, except the guy was in his cubicle all weekend. Well and Andy thought the smell was a sandwich he had taken from the company refrigerator and had left in his desk.
No work means no basset chow. No basset chow means more excursions into the hamper for “alternative” sustenance.
Really, do you want that to happen? ;)
Blogging at work? Who do you think you are, Instapundit?

whinin’winnin’ …FIFY
I’m picking my Mac up from the Geniuses in a few minutes, you can use it. And what kind of spoiled kid have you raised that everyone expects you to celebrate her birthday (there will be plenty more) if it means all the losers out here in Tboggland won’t get a Bassett Fix? Teach that girl some humility.
Seriously, settle your ass down and enjoy dinner with your wimminfolk, say happy birthday to The L&TC from the rest of us, and fergawdsakes get some sleep. You’re too old for this shit.
I will be thinking about the natal anniversary all day, to keep from thinking that it’s my ex-wife’s birthday. Happy Birthday, L&TC!
But, grateful as I am for that distraction, I must add to the chorus:
Waddya mean, no bassets? Slacker!
4:30 PM here on the elitist East Cost. Hopefully you’re not dead in your
cubiworkstation (euphemisms rule!). Plus it’s bad form to keep your ladies waiting.All the best to the L&TC!
Keep an eye on your Swingline and make sure the ratio of people to cake isn’t too big.
We loved that show! Especially the character of the old guy who had founded the company! And we loved Better Off Ted too, same producer I think and very similar outlook. Absolute proof, of course, that if I like something, Hollywood immediately trashes it.
Yeah, not many shows have a geeky lab guy giving a deposition, while completely baked on his own “mellowing compound”, remarking how “the air feels like jello”…
You actually have programmers on the East Coast?
