ow! Ginger hurt my brain
Natter 69: Practically names itself.
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.
I really need to not read this while I'm working on my resume.
I actually have those printed out above my desk. Right next to the photo of my team all toasting with shot glasses.

I finally added "Free-lance bio-exorcist" to my resume. I figure either people will get the reference and laugh, or they'll be confused and want me to explain it.

Writing gibberish like that is one of many reasons why I decided not to go into advertising and/or public relations. As I told my advisor, I wanted to keep my soul. "But you're good at it!" he protested. "I know," I said, "that's why I'm not going to do it."

Oh, I must give a shout-out to the local Social Security Admin office. We went in today to get a print out of Hubby's disability income for the taxes, and after a wait of only 20 minutes in the crowded office, our business took less than a minute.

Fuckers.
