It has been a crazy day today at work. Should the budget not be passed, I will be furloughed, as many of you are aware. In dealing with the stress of not knowing our future, it was suggested that I checkout the twitter tag #govtshutdownpickuplines. wow. that made me laugh.


Some of my favorites included

• Baby, the only thing nonessential about you is those pants!
• Are those policy pants? Because your butt looks like it could use a rider.
• Is that a Continuing Resolution in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?
• Sure, the federal government will shut down, but like the post office, It'll still deliver
• There's a Tea Party in my pants and everybody's coming
• No, that's absolutely NOT a vibrating blackberry in my pocket

Completely inappropriate and completely hilarious.
