Didn't Jessica and Elizabeth get lariats when they turned 16?

Lavalieres, actually. t /pedant

Oh, also, hey everybody.

eta: apartment-ma for sj & tcg!

Froot loops:

Does that look snotty as hell, that I just show up and start correcting? I hope not. I figured by now the, "I just got caught up and didn't remember to meara" was just implied and everybody was done with hearing it from me. Just struck me that it looked snotty. Hope not.

Hugs & ma to all and sundry (to whom I would not be an intentional snot).

eta: some sense.

TOTALLY SNOTTY. I'm so offended I'ma go sit in the corner, read Double Love and pout at you until you bring me a red Fiat to drive.

Not snotty, love. If someone didn't correct me at least once a day, I'd die of the shock. (initally typed as "cock". BWAH!)

Dying of the cock. That would be a tragedy.

Now forced to childishly exclaim, "But what a way to go!"

It's just possible you people may be a bad influence on me.

Apartment~ma, sj and Dave!

Hec, I've been reading along the last couple days but just too darn busy to post much. I'm so sorry your work doesn't appreciate all your hard work and likes to play games. Here's hoping they reap in full the karmic reward for their asshattery. And lots of job~ma to go with.

IOmeN, work is eating me from my bottom. We've been short two technicians and an assembler for months now and it's finally catching up to us. I've put in 50 hours already this week and I'm going in for 5 hours tomorrow. The neat thing is, though, I get to tell other people to come with me, now. Well, actually, I ask nicely. I don't make anyone come in. But it sure is nice to see so many people go, "I will, I will," when I ask. Still, I have no energy when I get home and all I do is flop. I hope when--if!--we get caught up here soon I'll get to stay and play with you all more. In the meantime, I'm thinking of all of you and wishing everyone their heart's desire. And carrots.

But Curly Moran's the only one who can fix a Fiat, and he's dead now. Perhaps you'd like to re-think your choice of carriage?

(Really hoping PC or other VM watchers are in this thread so I don't look like a moron).

I'll just sit here and wait for Lila to pick me up in her convertible.

Hey, yeah! Where's my carrots? I'm waaay overdue for some carrots!

ION: I heard back (voicemails) from the two staffing agencies re the two resumes I submitted yesterday. Haven't talked to them yet - hard to work out the time for scheduling employment changes while trying to keep your current employer from getting wind of it. (Just agencies so far, but seems like a good start). But then spent quite a bit of time this afternoon discussing ongoing projects with my supervisor and feeling like a jerk for thinking of jumping ship. Problem is, she really seems to think highly of me, but has NO POWER AT ALL. And the people with the power seem to be under the impression that I'm an unskilled monkey in here handling their documents. So hard. (Though nothing to the people who have no choice but to look, not trying to compare my pain in the ass to yours. Promise!) Still, feel like a jerk. But, damn, I'm frustrated!

S'okay, Epic. I snarked on the Empress the other night and she just ignored me. Or skipped the overnights. But I am pretending it was the ignoring in case I need an excuse to turn and flounce away.

Apt~ma, sj and TeaCupGuy. Fingers are crossed.

When did you snark on me, buttercup?
