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.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I don't think I'd include a letter at all - if your family are forwarding it to someone they know, they would write the letter. And then if a specific position is in the offing, Dave can write a letter then.

ETA: I'd say the same thing for the objectives.

Mostly lurking...

With what kinds of things in it? He isn't just looking exclusively at one type of work. He has so many varying interests and qualifications.

Then skip it. Nebbermind. I also agree with brenda.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I agree with the no letter crowd.

Objectives can be pretty general, like listing skills and strengths that he wants use in any given job. General.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Would anyone be willing to take a quick look at the resume for me?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Feel less allergic soon, vw.

Snuggles and hugs and ~ma to those who need it. I am gronking mightily this morning.

What is even happening?

The shirts say 'fewer'. I can't have that shirt although I love it, because I love my smart boys much more.

(I could totally buy it for my cousin though, as long as she'd promise not to wear it around my boys.)

I also agree with the no-letter crowd. I am too brain dead from exhaustion to read the resume, though. Apparently, I'm redundant.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I could have sworn the shirts said "less" last night.

Ah, well.

What is even happening?

Kristin's post said 'less'. I only saw the shirts this morning. Maybe Kristin alerted her friend?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I am agronk. I've been up an hour and am still debating between making coffee and just taking a nap.

Firefox lost my profile last night. Grrr. Between that and allergies, nap is winning.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Today's paper has a big article about Kaiser's mis-management of their fledgling kidney transplant program.

I rarely get to read the news - if I happen to be listening to the radio, or have a moment to clicksfgate.com, I'm lucky to see any news on any given day.

But I digress. Last night my mom got a call from a nurse at Kaiser assuring her that she is still on their transplant list. After a long coversation, with my mom citing all the things Kaiser has not been doing, she asked that her name be passed on to the federal investigation team. Oh boy.

Don't mess with my mom. She has her masters in Health Care Administration. She used to run the Renal Failure program at Kaiser, then ran various dialysis units before her own kidney failure.

Let's see if she ever hears from the investigators.
