Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

[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.

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?

Nora, you are NOT a failure. Nope. No way.

I have a situation at work that is amusing me. I have a new boss who started here about 2 weeks ago. Officially, he started on a Sunday, which was the first day of our conference. I spoke to him a couple of times at the conference, but didn't really introduce myself.

On his first official day in the office, I went to his office and introduced myself to him. He then asked me what I do here. I got the distinct impression that he had no idea that he was my boss. Since then, he has barely spoken to me reinforcing my belief that he has no idea that he's my boss.

Today, he sent an email out to all of the managers that he supervises. I am not on that email. Dude has NO IDEA that he's my boss.

Frankly, I'm okay with that. I'll be left alone to get my shit done. Kinda cracks me up.

Nora, you are not a failure. Blame the pants, evil pants!

Nora is definitely not a failure.

ChiKat, I think you should send him an email that assumes you are his boss. Ask him to get you a double tall latte, no foam, pronto!

I like Sparky's idea. ChiKat, that is too funny.

What is even happening?

What if ChiKat likes the foam?

ChiKat, I was just looking more closely at the goodies you sent me, and I am IN LOVE with the fragrance pendant. It is SO COOL!

Herding cats for fun

bought a pretty variegated green linen scarf that I think is lovely. BUT, it looks kinda stupid around my head.

Nah, babushka-style headwear is very in. (OK, maybe that's just for me?) Keeps your ears warm, covers your hair AND keeps your brains tucked in nicely where they belong.

Well, this is what I got: [link] Now all I need are some really big sunglasses.

Oooh, pretty. Gorgeous tone shading! I think you'll be looking completely glamorous and mysterious too.

She can order her new minon to bring her the beverage of her choice. I'm just the voice encouraging her from many miles away to be a wee bit bad.

Pretty scarf, vw.
