JZ! YAY! That's wonderful!
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

In other "I feel smart" news, I got a Palm Tungsten E2 off of eBay and received it yesterday. The installation software was throwing up errors. Hubby started going, "It's a dud, send a complaint."
But, in best tech support tradition, I noted the error message and searched Palm's support library, then discovered I had to uninstall my old Palm software first. After that, the software installed but it wouldn't sync, so I popped over to Device Manager to check for errors, then let it copy over more drivers.
I feel so smart.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
JZ, you rock!

JZ, I'd meant to link to that weeks ago when I first heard of it, and I kept forgetting, so thank you!
Everyone else, click. Right now. And turn your speakers on. Don't worry about co-workers overhearing - they'll thank you for brightening their day.
Also click on this one, which was my second guess as to what was behind JZ's link. (No sound necessary for this one, but it does have non-sexual boobies in it.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think all my Potential Future Wives live in the Star Trek Mirror Universe....

Oh, and congratulations!! I was too busy laughing at Charlie I completely skimmed that bit.

I love both JZ's and Jess's babyvid links, although it always annoys me that Youtube makes me confirm my age for the latter.
Also, Jess, you should keep that tag forever even though the names are back to normal.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Thanks! I'm all nervous about waiting to find out what my salary is. It's not at the discretion of the people hiring me... they give the position a classification (in this case "Assistant III"), then send the resume of the person they've chosen to HR, who compares that person's education and work experience to the education and work experience of everyone else already in that department with that classification, and the salary level gets assigned based on that.
