Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Congratulations, quester!
Cash, I hope things work out for the best with your DH. Having a job that caters to his actual, existing skill-set seems like a no-brainer to me.
msbelle, I'm so glad the new job is less toxic than the old. You sound so much lighter and happier when you talk about it.
flea, that's wonderful news for Mr. flea! I hate the government hiring process with the burning white-hot heat of a million fiery suns.
edit: sara and Suzi, I hope you hurt less, soon.
One step at a time, java. But, if it turns into a real job I will definitely be looking for classes.
Whoo, msbelle! The new job makes you sassier! I like that.
Congratulations, quester!
Cash, all kinds of job~ma for the DH.
Actually, much job~ma for everyone who needs it, including Consuela and mr. flea.
Also, cupcakes. For everyone.
YAY Quester
Far fewer uncomfortable conversations in the hotel elevator than TAM.
Plei and I had a conversation about the state of my boobs in the elevator with two random women.
At least one of them didn't think I was uneven enough to worry about it.
I stopped on the way to infusion and bought myself cupcakes. So far I have not eaten any, but that's because I have fresh CSA corn to eat for dinner first.
Also, cupcakes. For everyone.
Unlike what's recently come out of Congress, THIS is a plan I can heartily endorse.
msbelle, I'm so glad you're liking the job, and that they are recognizing your awesomeness.
Excellent news Quester! (And Laga, and continuing excellence smonster & StW)
Cash, a big cluestick for DH's boss. Consuela and mr. flea: bureaucratic-hurdle~ma.
calm~ma for Jilli & Pete (hope I'm still in the right thread)
phew. tired now. We went to a concert tonight and took a picnic. Food outlasted the music. Hmph. Now DH is planning to pull an extra day of work out of tonight. This is clearly wrong.
(smonster says) Consuela, bonny recommends a powder you can sprinkle on their food, called Plaque Off (they make a human version and a pet version).
I haven't had the courage to give it to my cats yet, but I've been taking the human version* for two years. My teeth are whiter and I have no tartar/plaque/whatever-it-is buildup to speak of at dental cleanings anymore. It also seems to have helped my energy levels - it contains iodine, so probably helps my sluggish thyroid. It's some particular seaweed. How it helps teeth, I don't know, but it seems it does.
*The human version is exactly the same stuff, in a bottle with smiling people on it instead of smiling pets.
Sox, I think you crossed the threads a little. Happens to me all the time!
flea, I omitted a hearty "woo hoo" to the news that mr. flea is back in the game for that job. Is that the one near Steph?
I'm now being completely thread irresponsible. Did I get the thread right just now in bitches? Dear dog I'm confused. I need thread counseling. Or a nap.
