Eh, I'll live. I just think it needs to be filed under One of Those Days.
Nora, I'm glad your meeting wasn't necessarily all bad, even if the outcome wasn't what you'd hoped. Come October, you'll nail the bad boy to the wall.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Basically I had a fourteen hour solid block of fun and friends yesterday.
You deserve this and more, Sean.
{{{Nora}}} Don't make yourself sick about this. I wish you could rewrite and resubmit your papers sooner than the fall though so that you didn't have to have this hanging over your head.
What she said.
Upside, she's geeky, computer savvy, and has lots of freckles...all over! Wish me luck.
Good luck!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Nora, you know what you did and what they thought, and now you're better prepared to pass with flying colors in October. Right now, breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy yourself.
I need some Aims news already!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
P-C, how are your teeths? Or, I guess -- how are your empty sockets?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
can you e-mail a shopping list? Or is it a matter of picking up the right flavor/brand of something as well?
It's more of a matter of last time I sent him to the market to get five items, he had to call me five times. It's just not his cup of tea.
omnis, want to go cluestick someone for me? They're not too far from where you live.

{{{Nora}}} I'm glad the meeting made you feel a bit better. October will be here before you know it and you can put all of this behind you and get that piece of paper. In the meantime, have a fun ass summer!

They're okay. The most sore socket is, I presume, the one where the tooth was coming in sideways and likely the most traumatic one to remove. But I feel better every day, and I only needed Vicodin that first day. It's been basically fine since then.

Finally got caught up here after being away this weekend.
Nora, sorry to hear the meeting didn't go as hoped, but I am happy to hear it went well for what it was.

Trust my rage
Nora, I've been thinking about you today. I'm sorry it didn't work out, but I hope youa re able to reach some level of peace about it.
No word on Aimee? I've been wondering about her too.
