Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Compassionately intolerant

Phosphate Girl and Polter-Cow! They fight...ennui!

What a charming image!

Congratuwelldone, PC. I'm excited for you.

By the way, 'I've wanted to ask you out since we first met a long time ago' is _super_ romantic. I do believe I sighed reading that.

Aw Steph. I'm sorry. And join you on the not doing well bench.

I, too, slept like rubbish and am in a lot of pain, so my day is bad so far. Plus, some work agita. Ergh.

This shoulder of mine is really, truly plaguing me.

My bff told me to take 2 Aleve every 12 hours for at least 7 days. This is what worked for her when an ortho prescribed it to get over a bad muscle strain. I've been giving it a go, and thought it was working. Not so much today.

So annoying.

And this, after two really _good_ days, makes today feel even worse.

Good ~ma to all who need it.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

And how could I forget? P-C, that's great! I'm excited for you.

Urgh, how do I do this without setting off alarm bells at work? I'm using the doctor's appointment excuse because they're going to want a reason.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

She had a boyfriend then, as I immediately discovered after adding her on Facebook that night. An action I partially took to determine whether or not she had a boyfriend.

NH company wants me to come up on the 22nd. The 22nd-24th are going to be tough because someone is out on vacation, and I won't get the time off approved. Argh. Potential company is looking at other days, but I don't want to come off as difficult.

Oof. I hope you can work something out. I think they'll understand, and you can also frame it as being dedicated and committed to covering your co-worker in their absence.

Or you could do that.

Our wings are not tired.

Stick to your guns, Maria. They'll get over it - After You Are Gone to the new shiny job!

Teppy, there would be something amiss if you weren't freaking out!

((Bonny)) I hope you get some relief. It is hard to baby it when it has been doing good.

Because books.

Teppy, do you want to see more Mediabistro job listings? Or is that not helpful right now?

Also, what Laura and everyone else said. A freakout is definitely warranted.

All luck with the interview, Maria!

Holy shit, it's happening. July 25th I will be in Manchester NH for an interview.

Yay! They accommodated you and everything! Rock their socks off, Maria.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Yay, Maria!

Yippee! Things are really coming together, Maria. It is a joy to watch.

Thrive to spite them

Yay Maria!

And yay for P C.

My interview went well. The interviewed said he wanted to hire me but the head mgr is out sick today so I couldn't do a second interview. He's going to try and set one up for tomorrow or Friday.
