E-mail exchange from today:
Me: Which one of you bled on the [client] notes? Biohazard! If I get an infectious disease, I'm blaming you. Next time, a little less blood, eh?
[Boss 1]: Hmmm. I don't recall bleeding, or seeing blood. Maybe [client] came in the night, and this was intended to be a threatening message... I think we should put Dr. Jekyll on the case.
Me: You fool! Jekyll cannot even save himself!
[Boss 1]: Dash it all--you've seen through my plan. Now I must find a scapegoat, to divert attention from my nefarious machinations.
Me: You're approaching blogworthiness. You are indeed nefarious.
[Boss 1]: Double dashes! Now my thoughts and ruminations will be made public, when I'm supposed to be maintaining a low profile! I curse the day you arrived, with your twitter and your bloggery.
[Boss 2]: It was me, but it was beets. Which may be even grosser to you, I guess.
Me: A likely story!

I love your bosses! I also am considering using the phrase "double dashes" in normal conversation. It would be a good substitute for the things that I say that aren't generally appropriate for times like, say, class or when on the bus, or at a parade with lots of little kiddies.
