Are you considering looking for another job, Aimee?
Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[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.

Because books.
I just...I took the job to be closer to home and to Em.
That does suck. And I bet the traffic out there makes the thirty miles that much longer. Sorry, babe.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
And she has them. Guys. Who do....stuff.
I really do. Mostly they drink. But they do other stuff.
Aims, that blows. I'm sorry.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Are you considering looking for another job, Aimee?
No, not really. I love it here. I love my bosses and I love the company. G said he could be flexible as long as business hours were covered. Since I has to drop her kids off at 7:30, she won't be there until just after 8, so she'll be staying til 5. I think they'll let me do 6-3. Or maybe 7-4.
Then again, it all depends on what job Joe gets and what his hours will be.
Bah.

How's Emmett dealing?
Okay. He's sad that he can't see Aidan. I can't imagine it's good to see his Mom a nervous wreck, barricading her door every night and sleeping with a lead pipe next to the bed.

Nope. Not good at all.
I feel so sorry for Aidan, too, though. Sounds like he has no one right now, with his mom gone and EM gone, and his dad turned psycho stalker guy. Poor kid.

And, we aren't having an office Christmas party, to boot.
Pshaw.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Joining AmyLiz's bandwagon. Someone needs to do something for Aidan. Unfortunately, anyone connected with EM is the last person in any position to do anything.

I bought The Velveteen Rabbit over the weekend
I just love this book, in the sense of sobbing nonstop. Also, my cousin raises rabbits and has developed a couple of new breeds. One breed, she was waiting until it was consistent before submitting it to the ARBA. Unfortunately, some folks on the East Coast didn't bother following the rules, so we have Jersey Woolies instead of Arctic Angoras. However, she's less bitter than I, and moved on to developing another breed: Velveteen Rabbits! I don't think she's going to bother getting them approved by the association, and I don't have any pictures, but they're a cross between rex rabbits and English lops (picture these: underthepinerabbitry.tripod.com/id10.html but imagine them very big).
lib, take juliana up on her offer, she has a lovely mom.
There is much temptation. I'm even more tempted to visit by aunt, and skip the trip from Anchorage to Homer. Now, mom is being all sweetness and light, and I am very confused.
Why can't November go pick on EM's ex for a while, and leave the rest of us who never did it no harm alone?
THIS. YES.

Aimee - DH's "Holiday" party is in a different state. On the other coast. Bah, humbug.
