On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

[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.

Hey, Gud. How are you doing?

Not great. Had a talk with my wife last night and it didn't go so great. After things started going downhill, I complained that whenever we talk it either seems to end up being how I'm a big jerk or if it is about non-relationship stuff she says it's all meaningless. When I complained about that then she got all mad and when into a "Oh, so I'm the villian" mode which wasn't really my point. I'm not sure how this is going to work out.

Okay, maybe that was too much information and too little grammer.

Also, how are you doing? It sounds like you got a great job.

Never too much information. I'm so sorry things are SO difficult. {{{Gud}}}

I'm doing pretty well. Classes are tough and time consuming, but good. I'm excited about the job. I start next week.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Gud, it sounds like she's way defensive. So she must know that part of what's going on is on her, too. Gah. I feel so bad for you.

calm job-ma for askye.

vw, that sounds very good (and I like the edits). I think it's really nice that you are in such demand and have a choice in which job you take. That's got to be an ego boost.

Tasty beer is on the horizon. Sadly, not for many hours yet.

Not for many months for me. *sigh*

Susan, doing that right now, ainfg. Gris, ditto. Who says my life's not full? Me, mostly.

Actually, it was fairly stressful, but now, afterwards, it's kind of an ego boost. Yeah.

I think the stress is you worrying about not making everyone happy. Just remember that it's most important that vw be happy in her job. They will find another person that's right for the other job. But you already know that.

Happy Birthday Nora!!!

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

Oh, Gud. I'm so sorry. It sounds so frustrating and disheartening. No advice, just bushels of punctuation.

Nora, wishing you a day of low stress and tasty beer that arrives ahead of schedule. And I think I'm possibly more behind the times than you; I got American Idiot last year, listened once and shrugged and set it aside, and just rediscovered it about three weeks ago. Then I listened to the whole thing six times in one day. What was wrong with my ears a year ago?

This is how my husband and my relationship started. We not-dated for about a year. So there's that, Gris.

I was just about to say, but Raq said it first. Hec and I were not-dating, and not-dating, and not-dating, and then we were dating but clearly, firmly, and definitively not in any way, shape or form actually Dating. And then we were engaged. So, Gris, there is indeed that.

excellent letter, vw, and I know the dilemma has been stressing you out and making you feel like crap, but congratulations anyway on having two different potential bosses recognize what a catch you are!

Also, calm-ma to askye and job-ma to everyone who's been interviewing, which seems to be a lot of Bitches lately.
