'Sleeper'
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.
Oh and congrats on the retail therapy, Consuela. You've more than earned a splurge.
Thanks, Burrell! I admit I woke up thinking, "WTF! I spent more on those shoes than on my last pair of skis!" They are, however, really beautiful. I hope they're as comfortable as they claim...
No, I don't think it is a bad metaphor. It is probably better than using a "dating metaphor" which I have seen used in grantwriting presentations.
Yeah, that.
YAY shoes! You totally deserve them, Consuela.
I am not doing well at work today. I keep crying and I am not sure lunch is going to stay down.
That reminds me--I got my state tax return yesterday! It's already spent, on last month's car repair credit card charge, but at least I can stop wondering if/how I could pay last month's car repair credit card charge!
oh msbelle, I am so sorry.
Well, I am now boggled at the idea that anyone would think a dating metaphor was a good one for grant writing. I mean, yes, you need to find a good match, and, okay, I would be more likely to date people who can spell (but then, see my actual husband, who can't), and eventually you just go to a bad place which involves getting into a foundation's pants, and NO.
Edit: bad place, not bed place. Hellooo, Freud.
I am not doing well at work today.
Can you take a walk for a little while? Get some air?
I'm sorry your job is so horrible.
A walk seems like a good call.

As I "learned" at work just the other day, working with foundations is more like dating with an eye on marriage, while corporate sponsors are more like one-night stands.
Scrappy, is your profile addy still good?
