2:08 PM Michael: ive been informed that the deadline for energy benchmarking has been extended to august
2:09 PM me: Alright, then. What does this mean?
2:10 PM Is this good news or bad news? Or neutral news..
 Michael: it's actually kind of good news
  because we have gotten just the one and only job
2:11 PM so this tells us that the lack of business is not our (my) fault but apparently people just don't know about it
  I've got a performance review coming up any day now
  i had to submit a self evaluation
2:12 PM which i scored very well on, btw..
  so I'm hoping that this can be some kind of leverage
  or at least show that my usefulness could theoretically extend beyond may 1st
2:14 PM me: That sounds pretty legitimate for leverage. Glad to hear you scored well on your evaluation of yourself.
 Michael: haha
  exceeded expectations right down the line
  whoda thunk
 me: sometimes i think you know yourself too well
2:15 PM Michael: its good to know i can still surprise myself with just how exemplary i perform my job
  i think i went a little too far on this description
 Michael: ensuring
 me: for such an insignificant item
 Michael: sorry
2:17 PM thats one that i catch a lot
 me: oy vey
  thanks
 Michael: haha
  this is great
 me: i don't pay attention to any grammar or spelling really.
 Michael: To boot, the keychain makes it easy to carry along anywhere, and with 2 bright LED lights, you can check your tire pressure practically anywhere, anytime.
  HOLY FUCKING SHIT IT HAS LIGHTS
2:18 PM me: haha
  indeed, it does.
 Michael: i meant to comment on the nintendo wii controllers
  thats a pretty great deal!
 me: i think it is.
2:19 PM they are pretty legit for knock offsa
 Michael: oh really?
  i thought they were the real thing
  i wasn't sure if there are like...generic controllers for the wii or not
  oh by the way
2:20 PM i just remembered this
  the band devotchka
  who i think i remember you being a bit into
  are playing some place in brooklyn tonight
 me: huh
  i'll check into that
2:21 PM $30 tix that are sold out
 Michael: you should go and wear the sound equalizer tshirt
  oh damn
  thats a bit much
  even if they werent sold out
 me: they are selling like crazy
2:22 PM Michael: its pretty awesome honestly
  and for 10 bucks
  cant beat it
 me: Spy with style, and take your surreptitious fantasies to the next level with the 8GB Stylish Men's Spy Watch Hi-Resolution Pin-Hole Video Camera.
  is this too creepy? i think it's kind of funny
2:23 PM Michael: haha
  surreptitious fantasies
  sounds sexy
 me: i know
  i figure that's what sells, right?
2:24 PM it might be too upfront and deter people by kind of judging them
2:25 PM Michael: i figure if you are into spying then you aren't particualrly easily detered
  what with all the skulking around and waiting in the shadows and whatnot
2:26 PM me: Heh. that sounds about right.
  (as you place an order for one...)
2:27 PM Michael: dont judge. I can hear you judging because I have your shit wired.
  that's how i roll
2:28 PM me: i kind of want one. it's just it requires a lot of endurance, reading through a poorly translated and complicated manual
  like all of our spy stuff
 Michael: remember those puzzle balls you could get in 25 cent machines?
2:29 PM i remember one time i got one and it came with (poorly translated) instructions and it said "throw it at the ground and watch it decompose!"
  my family still pulls that out every now and again
 me: haha
2:30 PM that's so good.
  i'll have to send a picture of one of these descriptions on the music playing computer mouse with built in microphone
2:32 PM Michael: you know
  that watch is pretty creepy
  i mean
  what else would you possibly use that for other than upskirts
2:33 PM unless your a confidential informant or something
  youre*

6 minutes
2:39 PM me: basically, that's what it's for.
  that's why i decided to call it out in the description
  we have sooo much spy shit
2:40 PM because people buy that shit up
  hey--i have to get back to work...
  i'll be around.
2:41 PM Michael: alright, have a good rest of the day
  talk to you soon
