Someone else getting up to make coffee or take care of pets would be good. Sadly I do not think I would even be happy to be woken up at 6am for sex at the moment. My love for sleep is too pure and the thought of a person to have sex with is too foreign.
The money was too good. I got stupid.

That was a BOOM, they went all in. Come the end of each current mission contract, the institute will not be renewing CSRA's contract. First to drop is HST, 4/30. The positions that will be opening will be posted in the coming days and "we are strongly encouraged to apply."
This is how they are going to transition us to AURA. Some people will be able to stay CSRA on a contract that doesn't expire until 2019 and there are people for whom this is actually preferable. I am not one of them. I will be applying for my job. I may be taking a pay cut (unclear so far), but I will be gaining a 10% auto-retirement match and 5 weeks vacation and 5 weeks sick.
They found a way to make it happen.

People (who don't know me as well) are all "Are you OK???!" and I'm like 'I'm dancing a fucking jig on the ashes of the CSRA contract. Burn, baby." with a vehemence that is perhaps taking some aback.

Yay Sara!!! And I'll hope it doesn't involve a pay cut. That sounds like best case scenario that you've been hoping for!!
If anyone has a tiny spare bit of -ma, can you hope I figure out where my credit card is? I used it last night, it's not in my wallet, I'm really hoping if it's not in my jeans pocket the bar has it...it's the credit card that doesn't have foreign transaction fees, so I need a new one before Monday when j leave!!

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
WAHOOOOOOOO! That is fan-fucking-tastic news! Congratulations, Sara!
Find your card~ma, meara. Can you go to the bar as soon as it opens up and check?
