I think SA needs to come to SF.
Good on you for the 8 days, Nicole!
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

[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?
I will note that Hec has been putting SF consistently in the ring for the last three years.
He's a pimp that way. I suspect he's got some kind of hellmouth there, only instead of evil, it draws all the Buffistas.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
So, just how terrifying is it to go somewhere and work post-college?
As Gud points out, job-having is good. And Steph is right on the money about the internship. I ended up in Chicago right after college. I didn't know anyone; had lived in a dorm, so had no clue about apartment living. So the things that were a huge struggle for me - support system and independence - should be much less to non-existent for you.
There are lots of Buffista-laden areas for you to go. I'm really excited for you. I think the time after college can be so rich with learning about the Real World and the Real You, that the setting is less important than you think.
Belated Birthday wishes to Anne, and belated congrats to ita.
Beth, I've written to Matt, too. I've been thinking about you guys.

Nicole - 8 days is FANTASTIC. I wish I could get DH to quit. He bought a "Quitting for Dummies" book, so I was hopeful. But then one of the kids asked him about the book and I never saw it again.
Nevertheless, YOU deserve big congrats.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Thanks Nicole. I'll check it out, see what it says.
Still, my question for everyone who wanders through SB still stands, about what you did post-grad.
Perkins--it's certainly an attractive option, given the community out there...
And now I'm off. Plane-ma for me, please.

Post-college, I went straight to law school. I wish I had gone somewhere to work for a year or so first.

Well, shit.
Big!Boss just asked me why he doesn't see more of me...that I should be here at least 20 hours a week.
Um...no.
So, I laughed. I don't think that was the response he was looking for.

So, I laughed. I don't think that was the response he was looking for.Well, sometimes it's all you can do.
I'm confused, though, didn't you have a big conversation about Stuff with him pretty recently?

No. That was my regular boss. I doubt Big!Boss knows anything about what is going on.
I suppose I should maybe take it as a compliment? Or...he's getting impatient about the project I'm working on? I don't know. I'm just trying not to panic and figure out how to work 20 hours a week. I just can't do it right now.
