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.
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!
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.
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?
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.
Toto being pesky?
Dallas just spent my very stressed week very stressed herself -- rotten little creatures feeling our pain... but I was ready to kick the little bitch off the bed.
It's just really frustrating, because I did everything I could to make sure this very thing didn't happen. I was being all responsible and starting a job search, both so that I'd have extra income once the supplement stopped and so I could have health insurance when my COBRA ended (supposedly on the same day, which I should have found suspicious, probably). This is one of those things that I'll deal with, but just doesn't seem fair, because I was trying to be all responsible and stuff. I've "radically accepted" (a DBT term) that it's done, and I just need to deal with it, but that doesn't really make it any less frustrating. It's making me able to problem solve, which is good, but...
Completely unrelated, Emily, if it starts raining, do you want me to pick you up after tutoring?

Toto being pesky?
He won't. stop. barking. He's making crazy.
