If anyone is still reading this, I'm not dead...just so you know.
I've been staring at dual computer screens every day for hours on end, and it's made me exceptionally grouchy, and I haven't been so good about the ol' blog, you know?
Well, that ends now, because the only communication I seem to get from some of you folks (John...you pud) seems to be via comments on the blog. I shall hereby be blogging again, bitterness be damned! Unfortunately, I don't really have any good stories as of late, though. The strange humor that surrounded my mailroom job doesn't exist in my new position. The people I work with (and recently, though to a lesser extent, me, if you can't tell by the tone of my last few posts) all share a real resentment and bleakness about the company, and it's pretty difficult to find funny stuff in that. For me, I guess it's just hard to see that path and still have to walk it.
Oh well. We are where we are.
That said, did you know that the name "Ziggy" can be distorted into all sorts of great nicknames? For example:
1) Ziggawatt (it's funnier if you say it like Doc from Back To The Future - "This sucker's electrical, but I need a nuclear reaction to generate the 1.21 Ziggawatts of electricity I need.")
2) Zig-a-zig-ahhhhh (yes, a Spice Girls pun)
3) Ziggle-it-just-a-little-bit (sing it - you'll see)
There are tons more, but I can't think of 'em right now.
IT'S OVER!!!!!!
