Spike's Bitches 24: I'm Very Seldom Naughty.
[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.
You know today was, as it turns out, a good day.
Verizon was so damn helpful the fourth time I called (I was thinking about changing my service plan and maybe updating my phone since it has been two years and they've got a
pantless
plan.) that I wrote them an e-mail telling them they should give CSR Rick in Salt Lake City a cookie. He gave me free stuff. And was nice. I have a new plan, a new phone on the way and the aforementioned free stuff (a credit for minutes that went way over due to *when in the month I had used them* when I changed plans, even though I went to a higher plan and a free big-ass additional battery - pretty much a hundred bucks worth of stuff...)
And my TiFaux can be controlled through the interbunny. I am sitting here, in front of the tv actually, playing with the Web interface. It's a geeky sickness... Did we know about this?
I also had English Muffin toast with smashed avocado and some cheddar on top. Life? She is good right now.
I need to wash my face before I faceplant onto the keyboard asleep. Keyboard dents and raccoon eyes do not mix. Trash and recyclables are at the curb. I'm just guessing hoping that it might be recycling week.
Hey Andi. Where in Az are you? I disremember.
Wow, top 30. I'm moving up in the
world
thread.

Did you remember your Benadryl?
I wish I could give you my not-allergic-to-avocados-ness. I ain't usin' it.
And by the way, Hi! Long time no post-at-the-same-time.
Of course that took me so long to type, you've prolly gone beddy-bye (esp. if you remembered your Benadryl).
Did you remember your Benadryl?
Hee! I actually did. Well I didn't, but a bite in and I remembered then. Took one, waited a few minutes and then enjoyed my snack in peace from the Dread Swelled Shut Throat.
It's been aaaaaaages. How've you been?
I am not asleep yet, just thinking about it soon.
How've you been?
"Busy as a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest."
I keep thinking I should give you a call, suggest getting together, etc., then remember the three projects, and final in Stats all due in the next 8 days (while still working, taking Kung Fu, taking Irish lessons, etc., ad nauseum) - and somehow slip back into Hermit Mode.
How's you? Any news on the employment front?
Aaaaaand, it would seem that nighty-night calls. Well, some of us. Some of us were supposed to be just taking a brief chat-break after finishing off one project before putting in some labor on the next. So, guess it's Good Night, All.
and somehow slip back into Hermit Mode.
Me too, honestly...
Any news on the employment front?
Fingers are still crossed.
The company (to be known as "they") is actually talking to my rep (to be known as "her") finally which is a step in the right direction.
But... They don't want to pay her placement fee because they (really just the owner, the other five "decision makers" are all on board already) don't realize that it's cheaper and safer for them to do so.
I ranted a little about this in an email to her this afternoon and she made it into a kicky little chart that she sent the company. I just pointed out that the time and hours involved in hiring someone are more than what she wants for finding me and sending me to them.
It's looking not terrible.
That's all for me tonight. I think I meant to go to bed an hour ago. Well, at least, I thought about it. My face is washed and moisturized, it's fate.
thinking about bed. not really sure if it is time or not....
Hey guys - I posted a big ol' smoochy thank you for the gift in Beep Me, but I really wanted to say a specific thank you to the folks who contributed, and to JZ and deb for masterminding. I don't have everyone's e-mail addy, though, and I am not sure I'll be able to find them all, but most of everyone posts in Bitches so I hope y'all see this (and I'll try to hunt down deb somewhere and thank her also).
OK, not the most graceful writing ever, but it's morning and I am caffiene-less.
Robert and I are both floored by your generous gift, and more than a little heartwarmed. You guys rock!
Kalimera, Raquel! So glad it arrived safe and sound!
