I'm waiting for tile guys. Again. It's a lot like waiting for Godot.
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Sophia, I'm confused too. I shouldn't care, but wtf changed between the time the invitation was sent and now?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Persons A, C and D can go screw themselves (as can Person B, if this is all just B's passive-aggressive way of taking back the invitation without having to actually, you know, take it back -- but, if not, then just A, C and D).
Thanks for all the good wishes! Now I'm all stressed out over the fact that the hiring process starts now but the formal offer letter may not come until the end of next week. Not because there's any question about it happening, just because this is a massive bureaucracy (took 3 tries not to spell it "crazy") and the actual agreement between all the involved parties means less than the mountain of paperwork. Still, I want it NOW. Until it happens, it isn't happening.
I am all in favor of the jobs-dropping-in-Buffista-laps expanding well beyond the Bayistas and well beyond the Rule of Three. So, hop to it, universe. Please?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Maybe ask in the business thread, just to be sure you catch folks?
And here's an article about gimlets that is also generally amusing about the hot: [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think it's a bad sign that I can't remember where I had my last gimlet. But they did ask if I wanted real limes or Rose's, and then simple syrup with my real limes.
I'm wearing a brick red skirt today. It's a dropped waist skirt with box pleats (front panel 6" wide, other pleats 1 1/2"). Length is to the knee, and there's same-colour embroidery of 2 rows of 2" simple flowers bordering the hem, with cutouts on the lower row of flowers. Right now I'm wearing it with a black turtleneck. I wear it with black tops with no pattern or visible weave. I'd also wear it with white or off white--I just don't have much. What else can I wear it with? I'm predictably stumped.

Art Crawl!!!
Something with a pattern that's the same color as the skirt? Possibly a green shirt (pale, I'm thinking) with something small and brick red on it.

Pretty sure my last gimlet was in LA this spring. Need to get on that.
