[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.

So the informational interview went well. I should know if I'm being brought in for a real interview in a few weeks.
... have I mentioned that a Real Interview here at the Evil Empire is 8-9 hours long, while they have you talk to everyone the team can dig up? And that interviewers like to ask logic puzzle questions? shudders

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Congratulations!
We have an ex-MSer here who likes to bring logic puzzles to interviews. Luckily he didn't interview me.

I think the last time anyone at MS got FTE headcount for my job description was five years ago, after the hundred day rule came into play, so I have never had the logic puzzles.
Lily is like a baby mastiff at the moment. Drool everywhere. Things in mouth at all times. Small white bumps on the lower gums, slightly larger than when I first noticed them two weeks ago when Perkins was in town. Oh yes, we have the first signs of teething.
Could still be weeks before an actual TOOTH is seen, but we are seeing teething.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Poor Lily, and poor Plei and Paul.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Which reminds me, it's been like, what, 72 hours since the last new pictures of Lily? This is unacceptable.

That's got to be an amazing feeling.
It is. Although I've been in this position three times this year, and something keeps coming up where I have to haul out the card one more time. Still, it beats the heck out of that $35,000 combined student loan-credit card debt I was looking at years ago.
So the informational interview went well.
Yay!
And that interviewers like to ask logic puzzle questions?
I sometimes enjoy these when I'm goofing off, but handling one at an interview, under that kind of pressure, would make me freeze.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Could still be weeks before an actual TOOTH is seen, but we are seeing teething.
Amen. We waited almost 8 weeks before the tooth actually started coming in and now it's only about 1/2 way in.
But so cute!

Converse now has a place on its web site where you can design your own Chucks, so I was all excited that maybe I could finally get my pink gingham low tops, which I want desparately, but then the web site wouldn't work.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I think we have too much available credit. I'm in the process of cleaning up our credit reports and I can't believe how much these idiots are handing out in credit. Come to think of it, when I applied for financing for our last furniture purchase (figuring, I'd get the $1200 worth of furniture for 12 months same as cash deal) they actually told me my limit was $15,000. I nearly peed my pants and told them I didn't need that much and I didn't want that much.
Every time I call my three cards to lower our credit limit to what I consider reasonable, a few months later, they jack it back up again. I need to cancel a few accounts.
