Thanks, Raq! My first interview is in 90 minutes. I have already splashed tea on my nice white top. t headdesk The stain stick is king. Long live the stain stick.
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

[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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm fascinated by higher math that uses letters for numbers (I'm thinking specifically of the numbers e and i), but it makes something in my brain short-circuit when I try to actually learn it beyond what i stands for.
e^i(pi) = -1! Suck on that.
I like imagining their inner lives too much.

I just realized that if I drink one cup of espresso every hour on the hour starting at 8 am I won't run out of cups until after 9 pm.

Bitch for the day:
They have been cutting down a tree across the street and grinding it up since 8 this morning. I really didn't need to know that there's a more annoying sound than leaf blowers.
Dear Blood-Drawing Person:
If you've frelled up the stick inside my elbow so that I have a giant hematoma, you've given up the right to be shirty when I tell you what size needle to use in my hand.
Signed,

Dear Blood-Drawing Person:
My sympathies. I always have them go for my hand because I have tiny veins and they roll. Of course, that doesn't stop them from ramming the needle out the other side of the vein and making a mess.

My body is making life very difficult for me today. I'm hoping this lease signing is short so that I can get home and crawl back on the couch. Right now I want to just cry and crawl into a hole.

sj, everyone wants to cry and crawl into a hole when they're moving. I hope you can get back to your hole quickly.
My best vein was in my right arm, but they can't stick that anymore because of the lymphedema. A good phlebotomist can get the inside-the-elbow one, but it's fairly deep and the more incompetent miss or go through it. The veins on my hand look large, so new people always start with a larger needle, which doesn't work because they roll.
I've also given more than 6 gallons of blood.
I know my veins, people. Listen to me.
