Oh, I havea quick question. The company that was going to call me back last night didn't. Would it be out of line to call them this morning?
Also? Another bite on my resume. Whoo!
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

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.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Would it be out of line to call them this morning?
I don't think so. Just frame it as a friendly, "Hi, I'm really interested which is why I'm calling you back, how are you doing?" kind of thing.

I'm getting the pig!
Last couple of posts were badly timed and my mental demons were eating my brain.
Has to be bad timing because you're very loved around these parts. And others as well, I'm sure. BAD MENTAL DEMONS! GO AWAY!

No reason why you shouldn't be able to hold someone else to their word, Aimee. No matter who they are. I say call. And woo hoo for resume bites!

Announcement: I really, really hate Michael Savage.
He says some really awful stuff, but he's so over-the-top it seems more like schtick than real conviction. Sort of like Ann Coulter. Also, I remember listening to some of a show of his one time (I was driving, didn't feel like music, there wasn't any interesting sports, and after that it's all right wing talk) and he mentioned having gay friends. Something seemed really wrong there, it's hard to imagine having friends that you label as scum destroying the nation.

I have auditors in house today. I get to sit with them for 2 hours. Someone save me.
Distract them with a burrito or maybe a veggie burger. Um, I'm not having a lot of original thoughts today.

What is even happening?
I do not know this Michael Savage. I think I'm glad of it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I think I should make Fay my SO.
Always a good plan.
Hi Suzi! Sorry about the auditors, that never seems to be any fun. Tedious answering of questions and your actual work doesn't get done, in my experience. Henry's gonna be in your neck of the woods this afternoon for an interview, I believe.
Go Aimee with the resume recognition! I think you can call at this point. Just say you were told there would be a call last night and there wasn't, and you just wanted to make sure they had all your contact info.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Once I was working as a temp for a credit card bank. Our department was being audited. One of the auditors just struck up a casual conversation with me in the elevator - except later I realized she was pumping me for info on the workings of our department.
Somehow that really annoyed me.

That seems fine to me. Good luck!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm not really sure I want to know what this extreme extremist that makes Rush Limbaugh look like Abbie Hoffman said to prompt this reaction, but I'll ask anyway. What did he say?
Oh, what hasn't he said? This is more of a cumulative reaction, as I'm forced to listen to him every day on the way home from work. He pisses me off with all his shit about "left-wing operatives" and all the other little conspiracies to take down the government that he Knows to Be True. Yesterday, he pissed me off by totally jumping down the throat of a caller, taking the first thing he said and turning it against him, and then viciously spewing the same rhetoric he'd just been spewing rather than, I don't know, letting the caller ask a question. I'm just not into the whole vitriol thing.
