Today is boo for being a girl, at least for me. Gah and meh.
Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.
[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.
Yay for bathing suits from Lands End that fit and are cute and were on sale. Boo for huge thighs. But Yay for not really caring what people think about my huge thighs and Yay for sarongs.
I am going to write a welcome back to school letter to parents now! It should be LOTS of FUN! (Hmmm, what's the appropriate soundtrack for this task? I'm thinking....Garbage!)
Hey, parents -- what would you like to have known from a back to school letter from a teacher?
{{Bev}} Continued thoughts and ~ma to you, love.

Go, Kristin with the moving! Woot! (Trying to cheerlead and encourage.)
I have been at work less than an hour and have spilled coffee on my shirt. A tiny dot of coffee right in the cleavage of a pink shirt.
Dear Parents:
It's time to send your kids back to school and I'm their fantastic English teacher. I will teach them, but I need you to support their educational efforts. Be interested in what they do and how they're doing. If they have problems, let's work together to solve them. Also, I accept cash bribes.
Love and kisses,
Ms. G.
Dear Parents
Your children did read over the summer, didn't they? If not, get them to a library. Stat.
And, um, welcome back.
Teacup Guy wants me to "poll buffista nation": If he is made an offer today, is it acceptable for him to say that he will think about it on the weekend and give her a decision on Monday? Is it acceptable or expected that he should make a counter offer on the salary? If so, when should one make the counter offer?
Ugh. Internet banking for my bank is down, and I need to transfer money so I can make my grocery order. I'm going to have to actually talk to someone. Blech.
It is acceptable to give an answer on Monday.
I think it is also acceptable to counteroffer on salary, though I would counteroffer sooner than later. I am, however, less sure about this bit.
sj -- Happy Getting the Car Back Day! Also, it is perfectly acceptable for Teacup Guy to say that he's going to take some time to think over the offer for a couple of days. I think it's also perfectly acceptable for him to ask for more salary/perqs -- so long as he's comfortable with getting a "no" answer.
