Buffy ,'Beneath You'
[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.
My part of the audit is over. I think I got out of it unscathed. Time will tell.
Left on the to-do...
Ginger - that panel is....I can't say anything bad. I want.
It's on sale!
It's on sale!
Another pro. Still scraping for a con.
Ok, I was in this high powered audit meeting this afternoon. Mucky mucks from around the firm, each one with their laptop checking data as we go from query to query.
One of them interrupts the current discussion to share an important piece of news. He had just gotten a CNN update regarding Brittany Spears filing for divorce . Of all the possible news on an election day, he felt the need to share that. Geee - thanks.
In non-celebrity, non-election news, how did I not know that MarketSpice had put out candles that smell like their tea??? My parents drank that tea all the time throughout my childhood, and my mother's house still smells like it. I don't drink tea, but I love that smell. (Maybe that's why I tend to liking the citrus-spice scents.)
orders eleventy-billion MarketSpice candles
I feel my bitch coming on. I don't really have a leg to stand on, but I'm rehearsing all the brilliant cutting things I could say.
I bought green tea body spritz (or some such, my allergies or migraines seem to act up to any actual perfume these days) from the Bath & Body Shop. I love it.
How sad is it when you go to b.org, notice that there is a newish thread for Bitches, and are happy because it provides a good excuse to count yourself 432 posts behind, instead of a few thousand?
I know it's a long shot, but if anyone said anything to me in the past couple of weeks, it turns out I was pretty dark and missed it.
Oh, God. Natter hasn't turned threads. I may not be able to face it until it does.

I voted! My polling place is just a few blocks from here in a community center so there were lots of people chatting and catching up. Some people walked over, I saw a Mom taking a picture of her baby twins, they were in their stroller but she had them right next to the VOTE HERE signs, So cute!
There was no line and I got to chat with the woman, whose name I forget but she remembers me and knows my Grandma.
Interestingly on the ballot for the amenemdent stuff it was YES or NO but on the local referendum it was YES, I am voting for this or NO, I am voting against this. I don't know why they decided to for the extra explanation for the local stuff.
Although there was a tv truck from some Miami regional news station, I don't know why South Florida is covering this polling place.
I didn't get much work done in the last hour because Big Boss wanted to send something to coworker w/new baby, but she wanted to send something with a stork. Which we couldn't find and after calling several places and asking around we went with my first choice.
I really hope Dad is serving wine tonight at dinner.
From a friend on her (unlocked) LJ:
As we stood in line, the election judge called for our attention, holding up a piece of paper and shouting, "Listen! This is a LIE!" All day she'd been noticing people going to the voting booths carrying these sheets of paper with candidates' smiling faces, but in the afternoon someone called her attention to what the literature actually had on it. Now, these sheets were made up to look like official Democratic party literature, telling folks in this largely Democratic district who the Democratic party wants them to vote for. And this handy little list of Democratic politicians included such people as... our Republican governor, Bob Ehrlich. Nice!
It's reassuring to know that in a world of hackable, digital voting machines, a bit of low-tech deception still has its place.
