For the first time in nearly a week, I've found a job worth applying for, for an events and outreach manager with the Seattle office of the ACLU.
It amuses me to think of how much VCOB and ExArmyBrother's heads will explode if I get this one.
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Susan, that job would rock (and you would rock for the job). Go 'splodey heads!

I'm getting the pig!
Crap! I keep forgetting to say things.
Sail, I hope the doc gave you something that helps the rash asap. Check in when you get home, please.
Stephanie - Ellie is so freakin' cute. Her expressions are so incredibly unique. What a doll.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Because books.
Yay for Ellie pictures! So. Adorable.

I'll sign Sara up. She's quite adept at: removing diapers, pouring liquids anywhere and everywhere (smiling impishly while doing so), and throwing balls (or, you know, other less appropriate things), all of which could be handy when defeating the enemy. She loves beaded evening bags, so I think scepter-waving would be right up her alley.

Silence means security silence means approval
We have an upgraded virus protection. I've had problems with it blocking emails from several of the people I have to contact because they use web based email and send attachments. I've found a work around for that. However, the upgrade now strips and deletes Excel files. The IT guys say they cant' do anything since the virus protection is run by an outside source. So we have to rename the files as txt files and hope that fools the virus protection into letting them through. I haven't had a chance to test this yet. It's going to get very annoying if we have to do this all the time.
We have to do this all the time with ZIP files, or ZIK as I call them now. Annoying to no end.
There's no good reason to block XLS files. I'd lean on IT until they figure out there's an override in most of this virus software.

It's even a good fit just as a job. (Description here: [link] It's just enough of a step up from the kind of event management I did at the old job to feel like I have a career with actual forward motion, but not so much of one that I'd feel lost and out of my league. And while I hope to start selling books at a level that will allow me to be a career writer sooner rather than later, realistically it makes sense to think in terms of a career path for the next 5-10 years as well, something reasonably challenging but that wouldn't require grad school or other extensive training that would kill my writing time.
