Warm and friendly but bad-ass when needed is the perfect combination.

aww, thanks!

I need this.

we'll work on it at the F2F :)

I am SO looking forward to meeting you. One weekend is NOT ENOUGH TIME.

Fuckin' HR assholes sent a live check to my house instead of direct-depositing my last paycheck. Gave me no warning.

People steal mail in my neighborhood. A little warning would have helped me prepare.

I've been in a good mood this morning and I won't let this totally derail me. Let us just say that I call on the gods to strike all those responsible with hemorrhoids, a never-ending bout of dysentery, and a voracious appetite all at the same time.

Someone in my building got bit by a bat this morning (maybe next time she'll listen when the guard tells her not to touch something). Wishing mucho bat-biteage on Spidra's and Hec's offices.

Bat biteage of the bubonic kind.

Or at least the vampiric kind.

Cat free in car is BAD, in my experience.

We had a brother and sister kitten set - she was lovely and would curl up on the seat. He paced constantly, including getting under the brake and on the driver's head. (They were named Retribution and Penance, and it so fit).

Vortex, your niecelet is gorgeous! I love the photo of her wearing the sunglasses, but the one that killed me dead was her looking up while holding/unwrapping a yellow box. What a gorgeous face.

vw, I am so sorry. Wow does that suck.

Can't believe I forgot to say Happy Birthday to the lovely LibKitty. Happiest of Day After B-Day to you!

What are people doing this weekend? Anything exciting planned?

I'll be spending the weekend (and next) in the 16th century (Ren Faire). Very fun, but tiring, and I'm still trying to figure out where I'm gonna find the time to do my homework.

Guess I'm just feeling rather low about being so very much a card-carrying member of the NGA Society. Which is the kind of boring drivel I generally try not to inflict on other people 'cause, well, boring drivel.

Fay is me - which makes me extra hot, right?

Dear Santa,

I know it's a little early to be writing, but I figure, what the heck, why not beat the rush? Please send Hec a fantabulous new job and me a nice geeky SO.

kthxby fay

Could we make that order for two?

Kisses, Epic

The result was a bit tongue and a whole bunch of blood

Aww, poor Leif. Poor Leif's parents. At least your lives will never be boring with that one around.

Note to Self: When Spidra comes into her full voodoo powers, Do Not Piss Her Off!

Wishing mucho bat-biteage on Spidra's and Hec's offices.

But not if they have diseases.

Of course I mean the people, not the bats. I don't want any cutiepatootie fuzzy bats getting sick from those nasty humans.

(maybe next time she'll listen when the guard tells her not to touch something)

I doubt it.

Skipped going out for lunch and ordered a grilled cheese sandwich from the Food Simulation Lab, thanks to Natter. But it was tasty!

Snuggles to vw and Spidra. And Hec.

And best of luck with school, vw. I have nothing actually helpful to add to the advice that's already been given.

And Vortex, the niece was indeed worth the wait. Absolutely beautiful! And, not to trash your worldview, but I gotta agree with earlier assessments - your bro's a hottie.

How is it only early afternoon still? I wanna go home.
