Damn, Tep, that is cold. Hoping your mom is able to make some sort of peace with it quickly. Effers.

[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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Sorry to hear that, Tep.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Tep, give your Mom my best wishes.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Oh Tep that so sucks.

“Not dead yet!”
JesusGOD, Tep, that freakin' blows. I suppose she doesn't have any other recourse other than to shoot them the finger as she leaves the building?

I so wish I was going to F2F. But as it turns out, it may have been for the better, in terms of some other stuff. We'll see.

Nope. Ohio's an at-will state.
I just talked to her again, and she and my stepdad (he works at home, so he was there when Mom got home) have already gone through their closets and gotten rid of all the clothes with the school's logo/name/etc.
And she is overflowing with the milk of human righteous anger.
t edit And after 8 years of employment, she got 2 weeks' severance, and 6 months' health insurance.
Have I mentioned that I hadn't yet made my donation to the school's annual fund drive? Hope they don't hold their breath waiting for it.

That sucks, Teppy. I wish them joy in finding someone who can increase enrollment in this economy. Fuckers.
The people behind me are having a privacy fence built about a foot behind my chain link fence. They are doing this without doing anything to clean out the assorted weeds, shrubs and tree seedlings within that foot. I did mention to the workers that taking out the several trash TREES that would be between the fences would be a fine idea and they did do that. They had been adding to the shade in my back yard, which it hardly needs. However, an 8-foot fence will pretty much keep any sun out of the back for most of the day. Even more annoyingly, they have the opaque fence. I get to look at the weeds and god knows what that grows up there, plus it will be a mosquito haven.
eta: If I were her, I'd be sorely tempted to delete my contact files as I left.

The severance is shitty, but I'm impressed with the health insurance.
