See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen  

[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?

in September so that she can start showing the apartment.

Now that just's craxy. Or, maybe it's a Boston thing, but around these parts, you don't show apartments that early. 8 weeks is typically really early. 4-6 weeks is more usual. 5 months? Just insane.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm so hideous nobody will ever want schmoop with me again...I guess it's lucky I have my rage to sustain me.

Au contraire!

I have cheesecake.

Health-ma to your mom, Calli.

Job-ma to Stephen.

Like Beverly before me, I had to skip about a thousand posts, so I retroactively am happy for the good, and thinking general good thoughts for anyone what needs 'em. (And also hope this will suffice for having skipped).

Today, I had lunch with an old friend and caught up on all kinds of stuff, and then we went to Bath & Bodyworks and split one of their 5 items for $25, so I now have some lovely gardenia-scented product. Love gardenias.

Oh, and...

Temp guy Ewwwwwww

Not that I've ever heard of. She's claiming MIT students like to look at apartments before they leave for the summer, which... well, maybe. But I'm thinking she's not going to have any luck renting this place as is four months in advance. She'll have better luck with the last-minute desperate people.

Job ~ma for Stephen.

Feel better ~ma for Calli's Mom.

Pfft for vw & Emily's landlady.

I think I remembered to pay the rent. I hope I remembered to pay the rent.

How happy will I be when this crazy loop I'm stuck in at work ends? Very happy!

A school in Toronto called me for an interview, but I don't want to go to the trouble of doing a song and dance for them if they're really only going to offer what they've quoted as the salary, because I wouldn't accept it. I'm job cranky. Good thing my DH is picking me up in 25 minutes to run to the grocery store so we can have time to take our Monday night hike in one of the parks around here.

What is even happening?

beth has already offered the solution I'd choose. I might say "per our agreement" rather than "by law" but I'd go with the same general thing.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Stress is bad.

I don't even know why I'm so stressed out. I'm doing fine on my studying. I've finished up all my grading for the semester (yay!). I think there's just stress in the air around a college this time of year.

Also, apartment-hunting. Which is a bad idea now, I know, but I really don't want to have to still be paying this rent over the summer when I'm going to be out of town for six weeks.
