Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

[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.

Jars, yuck. I know nothing about archaeological employment, but I hope it works out for him and he can go to Ireland.

I want to go to Disneyland with Kristin! Although maybe not in August, and not if folks are sleep-deprived.

GC, yucky schedule. Stop it.

I officially start f/t next week, 4 ten-hour days. Flexibility to have a 3-day weekend is why I like being a contractor. PLUS the new parking lot at the embassy will open, and we have a space, so no more walking to work in 100-degree weather! I'm kinda happy, but I'll miss lazing around the house playing with Mal.

I'm sorry Jars, that really sucks. I know that anxiety well, from when the software product Tom was working on got phased out the company and he was on a work visa (ie, layoff=get out in 4 weeks)

(hugs Tom's green card close)

Hopefully a solution will come your way soon.

Is it wrong of me to bristle at a seemingly standard question here, "How was your night?"

I know it is just making conversation, but DAMN. I went home, ate a fried egg sandwich and watched 2 gloriously terrible episodes of ST:TNG before passing out worshipping the sweet, sweet, AC.

If anything interesting/horrible/exciting happened in the 15 hours since I saw these people last, I'd bring it up!

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

Not to say I haven't felt the same thing, but I think you may be overreacting just a tad.


Jars - Aug 03, 2006 3:35:07 am PDT #6593 of 10001

Yeah, I'm just fretting because I know there's nothing I can do about it, and I feel useless. I just have to hope something will turn up, I guess.

Now tagless for your comfort.

gronklies.

I tried to fall asleep at 11 but ended up falling asleep closer to 1. Girl got up at 2:30 and stayed awake until 4:30. I tried to fall back asleep after she did. Finally did at 6:30 (after DH's alarm went off). Girl woke up at 7:30. Boy woke up at 8:00.

Yeah, you're probably right. Man, I miss my misanthropic office. Not that THAT didn't lead to annoyances too...heh.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Yay VW! Have a good move! No more Asshat landlady!

Move-ma to vw, so the movers don't break or lose anything. Yay for a new place to make home!

Well, Nora, at least your co-workers didn't give you shit about having a photo of Stephen Colbert up. One of my officemates posted a pic of Colbert from the latest Wired and man! did our conservative boss give him hell.

The boss is not an "it getter" is he?
