Damn shame about the Pogo finals, though.
Yup.
I'm glad JZ is going to get the appropriate pampering and will be waited upon hand & foot.
Edited--That was meant for Press.
It's possible that he's in the land of perpetual Wednesday, or the crazy melty land, or you know, the world without shrimp.

[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.

...and, I just knocked my beer over on to the couch and completely soaked my ass.
At least it wasn't the Fernet.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It builds up. And it'll take a while for the inside to cool down to match the outside.Listen to Emily for lo she is brainy and stuff.

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.
Lots of punctuation and ~ma to House Zmayhem and to Calli and family.

Herding cats for fun
Well, thanks, Zmayhem. No sooner do I get home but you give me a good scare. See if I share any of my vacation pictures with YOU.
thinking: Baby, Stay-Put, Stay-Put, Stay-Put! very hard indeed. You just put 'er in park there for awhile, little missy.
Also sending big warm waves of ~ma to Famille de Calli. May all go gently for her.
As for me, I am scratched, scraped, sunburned, waterlogged, well-exercised and glad to be home again. Fortunately I didn't get a spider bite. Unfortunately I've chipped off the outer edge of a molar (on a tortilla chip. How lame is that?) and it's really bugging me with the weird rough feeling.

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?
meara, you can call UPS and have them redeliver to a new address. I've done that before. If you call on Monday, they ought to be able to redeliver on Tuesday. Not exactly overnight delivery, but more convenient.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Toddson, it sounds like you are in a prime position to take advantage of a power vacuum. Now, sit down and write up a list of things that your ex-boss has done, and where he has stymied your job. Make a list of improvements and processes you would bring to the position and ask for twenty minutes of the president's time.
Lay out your claim for the territory. You have ideas,youhave the skills. Go for it. What are they going to do? make your job worse? Fire you for trying to make a better place to work? Maybe, but then you just bring up the same points for any unemployment adjudicator...or the next job interview.
As it is, the fact that your former boss is trying to still undermine you might work in your favor.
If necessary, gather up anyone who is willing to back you in this and have them help put the pitch together, or stand by you. Anyone that will show the president you aren't just backstabbing former boss.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I'm so glad to hear that JZ and the Halloweenie are doing better. I missed all the drama, because I was away from the computer all day, but that is so scary. Tons of ~ma to all of them
{{{Calli}}} Tons of ~ma and strength to you and your family.
I was coming in here to complain about car stuff, but it doesn't seem at all important right now.
