But there are no wombs in Supernatural...
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Consuela, mr. flea heard today that the efforts of the hiring team to get the pool expanded beyond the initial 3 people referred were successful, and he's been referred as well! So now they can choose to interview him if they want (and boy do I hope they do.) Is this something that could work for your position? From what I understand the boss of the open position asked to have a larger number than 3 referred (I think 5). There was no guarantee that central HR would agree, or that mr. flea would be in the larger pool, but thankfully he made it.

Now tagless for your comfort.
DH still has a job--but has been encouraged to put in for two actuarial jobs in Madison. Apparently, because his skill set is not what his position needs in the long term. This from the company who made an actuary director of marketing. @@@@@@@@

Oh, that's excellent news, flea! I hope it works out--and I'm sure they'll interview, because they won't have bothered to keep him in the loop if not.
I may ask HR if there's a reason they're going by 3 instead of 5....

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Have been covered in cat fur. I don't mind that so much, but the constant attempts to test gravity with stuff from my desk is annoying.
