should have known it would go down like this

During moments of odd Excel-induced stress, or even just quick little five-minute brain breaks, at work I usually check out the Hotlanta pandas. Because when you find yourself writing another article on why those cute little 100-calorie packs aren't really all that nutritious (ed. note: WHAT! NEXT YOU'LL TELL ME THAT DIET COKE WITH VITAMINS ISN'T REALLY MUCH HEALTHIER THAN REGULAR DIET COKE!), it helps to indulge in some quality panda time.

Today the panda cam was down for maintenance, and the day didn't get much better. I'm fine, shit will be fine, but the day can end any time now. You know?

"Panda cam down for maintenance" = my new way of saying, "I would like to call it a day, go home, and curl up with wonton soup and a Law and Order: SVU marathon. We'll try again tomorrow."
