It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

[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.

Happy Birthday, Cass!

And drat. The job offer that my DH got has come in with a very low salary. Less than he was making before going to grad school. That's just wrong.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

That IS wrong.

All kinds of wrong.

Hopefully they will see the error of their ways, after the DH points it out to them.

On the subject of jobs and wrong, the interview he went to last week (different place) told him to come in at noon and meet with the HR person. So he showed up, and the HR person sent a lacky in who handed him a stack of papers and told him he had two hours to complete the test. Test? What test? No one ever mentioned a two hour writing test to him, so he was mentally unprepared for it and rather angry to be surprised with it. I might have walked out, but he finished it and was only then able to actually talk to people about the job.

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

Drat on the low salary. Counter offer?

That's weird about the test. Some sort of meta test to find out how you deal with unexpected requirements popping up?

(eta, almost forgot, more woo-hoo-ing on the Erin front. Contract! Textbooks! Woo and hoo indeed)

These positions often involve a lot of writing, and often people ask for writing samples. So it was a bunch of stuff to analyze and write an executive summary. It wouldn't have been so odd if someone had bothered to mention it would be part of the process.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Excellent sports bra.

How is a yoga sports bra different from other sports bras?

As you unhook it to take it off, you hear a very quiet "namaste"?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
