Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!

[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.

what did you do after you graduated college?

After going back home and working for the summer I moved to San Francisco with one good friend, her boyfriend, and a guy I just met at the graduation ceremony (who was a friend of my friend). I had never been there before and had no job lined up. My friends got out there early and found us a great apartment though. I did almost chicken out and not move about a month before I was supposed to go. SO SO glad I didn't. Moving there and making that step into the unknown was one of the best things I've ever done in my life.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

So, just how terrifying is it to go somewhere and work post-college? Because frankly I'm finding that whole void space after May 22nd increasingly worrisome.

Okay, lisah almost makes it sound attractive.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I worked for six months then used the money to backpack around Western Europe for three. Best thing I've ever done.

I'm in Columbia, MD

I'm totally in Columbia RIGHT NOW and it's...well..the job here pays the bills so...

How are you liking the area? I kind of forgot you'd moved down here (or possibly up here). We should go to lunch sometime if you wanted.

Yay Nicole!!

Additional supportive stats: number of minutes you did not spend in exhile outside some building or other. The amount of healing your system is doing already. Priceless!

eta: Hey, I went to Loyola in Columbia. Nice place.

I'm getting the pig!

Thanks, Bitches! Seriously, the support has been very helpful. You all are the bestest.

btw, is there a point where it gets easier or is it individual for everyone?

Probably different for everyone. For me, it fluctuates from getting easier to getting harder, each day. Which might not make sense to someone that's never picked up the habit but I'm not sure how else to explain it.

Matt said she perked right up when she saw him - so all this last minute travel

Beth, that's great to hear.

I got some more sleep.

This, too.

Trudy, where did you work?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

SA, I found it immensely helpful that "somewhere" was a place where I knew people t waves at the LA-istas

It is scary, but it's, IME, a manageable scary, especially if you break it down into bite-sized tasks and decisions.

SA, I bused tables and did deliveries for a pharmacy.
