"Oh! I'm so sorry I won't be able to make it!" is a good all-occasion response. Goes over better than "are you freaking kidding me?" anyway.

[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.

Mmm... I splurged on lunch and am having a lump crab cake with a green salad with vinaigrette dressing from Daily Grill. YUM!

Plus, the shower invite/email actually said "Don't forget your gift".
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, she wasn't the one who sent out the email, someone else was, but STILL.
And she'd probably die if she saw that, because ugh.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

But the second is so much more satisfying!!!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hec, I hope Crazy!Ex calms down and backs off, pronto.
I have to terminate someone today and I am not looking forward to the prospect. She is being let go due to, um Personality Issues, and those same issues are going to lead to a messy, uncomfortable meeting. I got her a week's severence, even though we don't usually do that, but many of us in the office are worried that she is going to deal with this by behaving just like EM's ex, especially to her supervisor and myself. I feel very bad for her, and I know she is going to feel victimized, even though we have had literally hours of meetings on how to work with her and deal with her over the last few months. Feh.

Oh Robin, I'm sorry. That's the ugly side of management I guess?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Ugh, Robin. I hope it goes smoothly and not too much drama ensues.

Make sure that security is alerted to the situation and will have someone on standby. Seriously.

Oh, Robin, here's to it going smoothly. I'm sorry you have to go through that.
