To everyone who has a day off, I hope it's a grand one. I'm definitely not jealous, no sir-ree.
I am Sparky. At least today is Free Pizza Day.
I'm really going to fucking miss her.
Oh, Fay. That is really sweet and sad all at the same time.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.
'Dirty Girls'
Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Morning Gronklies, All.
Am lame. Have no meara.
Belated Happy Birthday to Lovely Lillibean!
Um, all I can think of.
So exhausted. Two weekends of RenFaire = Fun. But two weekends of not getting any sleep and not getting any weekend chores done = taxing. I keep telling people how much I'm looking forward to tomorrow. They ask "Why? What's tomorrow?" And I say "Nothing! That's the point." No appointments, nowhere I need to be...ah, sweet, sweet sleeping in.

That's just how I feel, Epic. Plus, I'm girding my loins for the next two weeks at work, where I know I'm going to be putting in 50 hour weeks and Saturdays, to boot. We finally got a new temp, but it's a drop in the bucket compared to the fact we do most of our business in the summer, so April is when the big push to up the stocking levels occurs. Ugh. At least the "we must finalize the budget" hiring freeze is over, so I'm hoping to get at least one more assembler and a test tech hired before the F2F in May.

I don't have the day off. sigh.
My great uncle died yesterday. I didn't know him very well but my Dad is really upset. I remember when I was a kid, he gave me a metal bank that was like a cash register and he had put $10 worth of coins in it. I thought that was just the shit. Anyway, here's his obit (he was quite a cutie in his day): [link]

{{Gloomcookie and family}} I'm so sorry. What a lovely obituary, GC. He really was a cutie!

What is even happening?
Gloomcookie, I'm so sorry for your loss. Peace to your whole family, your dad in particular.
Your great uncle looks a lot like the photos of my dad did in his Navy days.

Thanks for the good wishes. And Sparky that was totally the bank! Mine was black instead of red. Good times.
