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.

Yay for raises, book contracts, new jobs and new hair!

Poo on shitty days.

The good of having an up-to-date resume? You can apply for newly posted jobs the same day they are posted.

The bad of having an up-to-date resume? I just applied for a job at a place described to me as a "snake pit" just because it was so damn easy to do so.

Congratulations, David!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Burrell, I posted this in LJ, but you might not have seen it. Did Franny have night terrors? I've gotten some good advice so far, but would like as much as I can get.

(Seeing your child go through these is like unto watching Freddie Krueger take over someone's body in the moves - totally horrifying since there's almost nothing you can do about it.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Go, Hec!!!

Whoot, for the book contract, Hec!

Aimee, that sucks. My daughter had them, but I have no good advice to give as I never found anything that helped except to wait it out. Fortunately, she didn't have them very frequently, but they were very scarey.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Him: Oh no. You were just being beautiful.

Nice Fella. Good Fella. He should get a cookie. Or something that rhymes with cookie.

Yay job, Aimee! Yay raise, Gud!

And selfishly? Yay Lush cause I bought a Black Pearl bomb for tonight. Stopped to look at an apartment that had balloons and streamers and signs about leasing, like the sleeziest girl at the bar that really anyone can take home. The manager was standing inside the gate. Being a rude bastard. Guess where I won't be living... But it was two blocks from Lush and so I went there and bought me a comfort soak.

Our wings are not tired.

Yay for shiny book contract!

Yay, Aimee!!!

Yay, Hec!!!

Yay, Gud!!!

I'm a nosey mother, but glad I am at the same time. I saw something sparkly on the table and wondering what it was I picked it up and read it. My daughter's roller derby team gave her an MVP award for the first bout of the season. They played the team that they lost to in the play-offs last season and beat them by about 10 points. And Alexia got MVP! And here the girl was afraid that they didn't think she was good enough because she didn't get as much skate time as the new girls during practice. I am so proud of her.
