Dear Snugglemint,

I really admire the way that you procrastinate at your place of work. Your dedication to fandom is inspiring, what with your powers to ignore the call of real life duties to immerse in the deliciousness of a fanfic.

It's smart thinking the way you delete your history every day after work and keep your cool when someone walks behind your desk because you know any sudden movements will only look guilty.

However, the way your lips twist in that goofy way and sometimes break into a full powered grin is a dead give away. No one enjoys work that much. No one. Also, randomly laughing for no reason, also a no-no. Please learn to control your facial expressions and if you can't, might I suggest botox?

Sincerely,
The Snugglemint Who Still Wants A Job

LOL. Ditto almost all of this, except i read on my phone so have to not-all-of-a-sudden ram my phone in my pocket, or surreptitiously decide to look in a draw...

XDD HAha, yeah, it's hard to keep your cool when it dawns on you that someone is drawing close enough to see what you're doing.

This is why I totes read on my Droid. *g*

I don't have a Droid or an iPhone, so I can't do that, sadly.

I work on a computer though, so it's more natural for me to be looking at the screen (Even if it is with a shit eating grin) than to be looking down at my hand.

Bwahahahahaha!! Sounds like me when I'm on my phone at work and the manager is in the back. Boo work is clearly for reading fanfic, or didn't they get the memo?

Well, if the memo came in a fluorescent pink bird flying around the room like at the Ministry they probably beat it to death and thus it's safe to say that they probably missed it.

I am so terrible at work. Either I am trying to get my plotlines into shape, or I am retelling myself my favourite porny scenes from recently read fanfic! XD

And people at work keep asking me what kind of drugs I take that make me so agreeable and happy to be there!

*high fives*

Fanfiction is the secret to happiness.... until someone makes you actually work, and then I'm like RAWR!

Everything in this letter? Yes. I have a habit of smiling or chuckling to myself at dinner and they demand to know what's funny and I can't explain... XDD

Oh my god. I can't even imagine trying to explain the story I'm reading right now. @-@

I'm with everybody else. It's all about the smart phone. Worth every penny to be able to surreptitiously read fanfiction without having to both erasing your browser history at work....and check email.... and facebook.... and...well...you get the point :)

I work on a computer though, so it's more natural for me to be actually looking at the screen. Plus, I can't afford a smart phone. Sad face.

loool you have to be careful, you don't want something like the word COCK jumping out of your screen when someone walks by

Yeah. I know. That would be an interesting situation that results in my being fired. :D

You give good advice to you! Sadly I can't relate seeing as the only time I'm 'off the clock' is from around midnight to three or four AM. On the other hand, I don't have to hide what I'm reading at that time! LOL

If give myself very good advice, but very seldom follow it. - Alice

Yes, see where I take it allll away in the signature? Lol.

@-@ I don't envy that schedule

I don't read fanfic at work (no computer, no awesome phone), but I bring my m/m erotic books and become very O.O "Nothing!" when someone asks what I'm reading.

Yes! *nod* Actually...*looks at her bookcase* I may have some we can start with (I've a bookcase that is filled only with m/m erotica and yaoi manga). :D

Amazon sells them cheap used. Gravitation is a good romance story and Black Knight is a good plot. Oh the titles I could share.

I'm so finicky. I like having my new pristine books. @-@ Om nom nom.

Mm, the smell of new books.

Though shopping in a used book store is...oh. *flail*

A used book store is different, you can see the condition the book is in. Most times they're brand new and never read. But online you just never know what condition they're in.

True true. I won't buy used DVDs or CDs online. Don't trust it x.x
