you do doom a lot , david. which is odd, because i don't think of you as a pessimist.
DH has not started his clueby4 business. but really, he needs to. his co is once again trying to make his team responsible for something that requires a physical presents in the office. not a good idea 1) his team is the road boys. Dh travels the least - and he is gone 2- 3 weeks a month. 2)even if they are in the office - DH is the only one at the right office. so , no backup. 3) no 7 league boots. The worst part of this - this is the 19th go round of trying to get the external IT people to do the internal IT people's job.
On a more positive note, I introduced myself to a contract recruiter while getting coffee this morning, and she said she'd been hearing my name a lot (in good ways). It freaks me out, especially because I've been slacking off for the last few weeks since the six weeks of hell burned me the fuck out. Now that I have no pressing deadlines, I'm not nearly as driven.
That's the same link, Raq, and it still goes to the squirrels.
PC, I think there's still too much in that letter. Keep it simple.
Dear [landlord],
Please accept my apology for our earlier exchange. My uncle insisted I send the earlier request, because of his past experience with renting. I acquiesced against my better judgment, because I am staying with him, and did not want to be disrespectful of him. I am afraid that I have insulted you, in my attempt to placate my family.
I am perfectly happy with the agreement we came to before I let my uncle become involved. I will pay the pro-rated rent. I wanted to explain myself, however, because I am ashamed of my behavior and want you know that I am not the sort of person who will try to take advantage of your good nature. I hope we can continue on as pleasantly as we had been before. Thank you.
John Smith
It is the same link, I just wanted to see if doing it the old-fashioned href way would change anything. Glad it goes to the squirrels for you...don't know why it's going to random places for other folks.
Yay for people hearing your name in good ways! I always get twitchy when I think I've been slacking off and other people think I'm the best employee EVAH!
Ooooh -- Cindy's is WAY better than mine!
Cindy's is great.
Now the link is a forest scene. Still nice, but I want my squirrels with light sabers, dammit!
I really like Cindy's letter, don't want to be too wordy. I would say "I shouldn't have done it" rather than "I'm ashamed of my behavior"
You'll All Pay #44 is up!

And Now For Something...
Ooooh -- Cindy's is WAY better than mine!
Well, unfortunately, yours has already done been sent. Dammit, Cindy, why couldn't you have gotten here sooner?! I waited!
He might have been confused about the "John Smith" part, though, so maybe it's for the best.
