Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath  

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

Heh. Without even click on Tom's link, I knew it would be medical journalism jobs in NYC. Tom ROOLZ.

Yeah, that made me smile. {{{Steph}}} I'm sorry you're having to deal with this. What a PitA!

-t, I think Cindy's birthday is tomorrow. I think. But, I could be wrong.

Is this the boss with the weird consumptive strep thing?

I am so thankful I have such a great boss. She totally goes to the mat for all of us.

OTOH, doing so burns her out to a huge degree and I'm afraid she's going to quit. She gets so much pressure from all sides. She worked her way up from the bottom rung of this office, and wants to help us out as much as possible. This is so awesome and rare, but I am afraid it may kill her, mentally.

t or cupcakes

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Tom rocks.

Today is also the 60th anniversary of my maternal grandparents' wedding. I'm pretty damn happy for them.

Oh, god no. That's Big!Boss, who is still in the hospital in St. Louis, and is likely to be there for at least another month. They can't even do a skin graft until he's stable, and right now his body is still way too traumatized from the infection and from having all the skin on the underside of his arm removed. He's still on a ventilator and is heavily heavily sedated for the pain.

Though it seems like, long-term, he's going to make a full recovery. It's just going to be a long sloooooow road to get there.

I think I'm starting to plan a trip to Chicago for my break between summer session and the start of the fall semester. I'm getting very excited about the prospect. I haven't been back since the December after I moved.

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

I could easily be wrong, vw. I thought I remembered it was the same as my friends, but it's very possible that I shoudl have remembered it as the day after.

I like my boss, but not enough to bring him cupcakes.

60th anniversary! That's impressive.

Steph, arrrgh. That sounds really irritating. I've had similar situations, and there's nothing you can do except wait for the boss to come to his senses or else shut up.

I'm a little too over-caffeinated, I think, because I'm still twitching.

What a day to not be taking valium.

It's amazing how many days I feel like saying this.
