I love the smell of desperate librarian in the morning.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Allyson, sorry the Lost party didn't go as well as it could have. Best laid plans and all that. I know you and Maya worked your butts off for it.

Yay for the plug for your book, though!

I hate feeling like a raging bitch at the dentist, but when I'm in pain or discomfort when I leave, the office girl tries to cheer me up and seems upset that I'm not happy when I leave. My jaw hurts so bad due to TMJ that I have difficulting opening my mouth. I'm civil, just not friendly.

edit:

Her first question: "Are you still single and childless?"

WTF? Can you email her back asking if she's still tactless and stupid?

I'm living in LA and about to have my first book published.

The hell? After a dental procedure about all that should be expected of a patient is non-homicidal. And if the patient doesn't quite achieve that? Well, the legal defense is built right in.

I am about to have my book published, have friends all over the world and many of them right near where I live, and have a great hair.

[Edit: x-post with msbelle, sort of. In spirit, anyway]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What Calli said, Cash. I hate people trying to cheer me up in any circumstances, anyway, but leaving the dentist in pain? @@

Allyson, WTFF?

I think the "you rude bitch" is implied.

Nilly, I am honored to be in spirit with you.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

It's a weird question, right? I think I don't get the point.

I got my first check for the book, BTW. I forgot to bring it to work, I wanted to make a nice copy of it for framing.

msbelle, I'm honored too. So we're in the same corner again. Which is a very nice corner to be in.

I wanted to make a nice copy of it for framing.

Oh, that's an adorable idea. Are you going to spend it on something fun for yourself, or be all practical?

Some of it is going toward time off to finish it at the end of the month. The rest goes into savings. And maybe a teeny bit toward nephew spoilage.
