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

Kat, all about pleurisy. Nice and old-fashioned sounding (according to Google, it used to be treated with mustard plaster), but people still get it all the time.

Not it, then. Just curious about the new job. (I work with non-profits in development, which kind of sounded like what you did/do.)

tonight is gonna be another late night - no chance of getting to sleep anytime soon.

My grandmother just told me to just tell them when my last day will be and if they protest to say "tough". HAHAHA. But I guess she's right. I will never use them as a reference so who cares.

brenda - the new job is a start-up for-profit. I have crossed over and sold out for more money and hopefully saner bosses.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

and hopefully saner bosses

Wait, at a start-up ?

Good on ya. We all need to sell out once in a while.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Dumb question: When someone quits smoking cold turkey, about how long does it take for the nicotine withdrawal symptoms (esp. irritability) to set in and subside?
