You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

[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.

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

he might be Mike's nephew.

What? How would that work?

I suppose it's not feasible to say, "Well, you're the one that got it wrong, so you'll have to come up with the money for the next couple months," though.

No, not really. Although, I'm laying no the guilt pretty thick. Nicely, of course, but its' still pretty thick.

In other more pleasant news, I had e-mailed my creative writing prof a poem that he never got back to me and asked him to comment on it. I just got this response:

I seem to have inadvertently deleted your message/attachment from my inbox--and then I emptied my trash. I must have just kept on clicking "delete" as I mowed down the latest crop of spam. My apologies. By now you may be headed to the bindery anyway. Anyway, I expect that the poem will measure up to the rest of your fine and comitted work during the semester. . . .

That made me feel good.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Keep the pressure up. If they said they're going to pay until July then they better pay. Especially with something this important.

Money problems suck!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

vw, I'm so sorry. Your former boss sounds like a nice enough guy who's doing his best to find you a loophole, but he is still a dope for making a mistake that has no consequences for him but consequences aplenty for you. Stoopidhead.

Art Crawl!!!

If he's the missing woman's brother.

This was being discussed on another board (WX) -- based on Susan's meeting with the missing woman's sister.

The thing is, they are really nice and have been for the last two and a half years...especially to someone who only worked for them for 4 months. So, I have to be careful how nasty I get.

Wasn't the missing woman's sister the woman who was staying Mike? Who was his dead addict girlfriend's sister. I thought.

Should this stuff be whitefonted, or is that just in Natter?

What is even happening?

I'm so sorry about that, vw. Use that guilt for all it is worth, girl. It will cost the employer next to nothing (in comparsion to how you'll feel the cost) to apply some pressure and get your coverage extended for two more months.
