not a good start to the month...i don't know what the deal is, but people are making less sense than normal today (which, considering how people tend to be normally, is a pretty significant problem), and i'm really not in the mood to deal with it.

do i deserve to get yelled at by a reporter because someone's out of the office? hells no. and will i put up with it? see previous answer. i'll be as polite as i can be, while still making it clear to rude people that they can kiss my ass. ;)
