Subj: Dealing with the savages
Did you give them the blankets yet?
[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.

Too busy with hot hot girl action. Check out attachment: perfectly safe & impresses the ladies.
I love you all. Really. I do. True love. MWAH to the thread.

I did! I miss you! When do you get back?
It's far too early for you all to be this funny.
At my old salary, I'd literally be working to pay the sitter--and I didn't make bad money for an admin assistant in the midwest.
Yeah. This is strike 1, 2, and 3 against additional kids for us. I mean, of course, it can be successfully argued that from a purely financial standpoint, the years of paying all your money to pay for daycare pay for themselves long-term (in your increased earnings potential, social security, blah blah blah blah blah), but in the short run, it both sucks and blows.
You guys are too funny!

Granted, Lilly is baby perfection, but your pregnancy also sucked and blew.
Yeah, you know when I said that with the very generous salary I've been given here, after I pay the nanny I take home $10/week? I wasn't exaggerating for effect. It's just over $10/week.
I'm mainly working for the psychic income.
Which wasn't so good today. My boss, who is a very cool person, has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. And a colleague's son was killed in Iraq.
I've got Edward Tufte's poster about PowerPoint hanging right outside my cube.
Spidra! Edward Tufte is my sekrit boyfriend!
