Holy crap, Consuela, that's scary as hell. I'm glad she's OK.

who said she tried to push that message down (by rewarding people with Subway gift cards *just* for identifying potential problems) and clearly failed

Well, perhaps Subway gift cards was her first problem...

Bacon jerky sounds DELICIOUS.

I went to a free event at the downtown Kimpton (the Hotel Monaco where we had the F2F!) because I am a member (but not like, a high ranking one!) of their loyalty club--they invited me and a guest (my roommate) to come to a "women's event", where they gave us delicious drinks (pomagranate and pineapple mimosas?) and then dinner (three courses, and matching wines!)--and prizes! Sadly, I did not win any prizes. But dinner was delicious. And I (of course) gravitated to the lesbian couple in the room--who turned out to have gone to Mount Holyoke, and we knew tons of people in common. Very amusing. Good times! And clearly I am an extrovert, as I was meeting lots of people and making friends. :)

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Holy crap, Consuela, that's scary as hell. I'm glad she's OK.

She thinks it wasn't aimed at her, but (probably) someone shooting at someone else, and her car got in the way. God knows there's plenty of silver RAV4s out there. But terrifying!

And last week her house was burgled: not a good week for her.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, how terrifying, Consuela! I'm glad she's not hurt.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Holy moly, Consuela.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Damn, Consuela! I am so glad she's OK!

Scary...

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

'Suela, that is not a good week at all for your sister. Holy crap. I am glad she's okay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, your poor sister, Consuela.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Jesus, that's terrifying.

I'm glad she's ok.

I hate online only meetings. The quality of the VOIP is such that the sound quality is crap, less communicating actually gets done and half the time, you can't tell whose there and someone always forgets to mute themselves.

Don't get me wrong, I think it is great to be able to include people who are not on-site. It's helpful that way. But it simply does not replace the actual physical face to face. And how the fuck am I supposed to participate as people waltz through my office to work with my officemate?
