I could use some "please work out for the best" vibes around 3PM today. If it does work out, I'll have news.
Xander: Look who's got a bad case of Dark Prince envy. Dracula: Leave us. Xander: No, we're not going to "Leabbb you." And where'd you get that accent, Sesame Street? "One, Two, Three - three victims! Maw ha ha!"

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Two years ago today, I fell and broke my face. Only by whatever grace I have did I avoid breaking my neck.
As such, I now consider 11/14 to be the start of my new year.
Your support and love has been invaluable to me. I'd like to take this opportunity to humbly apologize for any offense I may have given, unintentionally or not, and to beg for your forgiveness. If I have offended you, please let me know via email so that I may make such amends as I may.
Again, thank you. This place has been an oasis in some very rough times, and I appreciate it.

First the good news: GF got a performance review today and was promoted with a big raise!
The bad news? She got laid off later in the day along with her entire department. The dept is being outsourced to India. She's got until Feb. 15 to find something else.
Fuckers.

As many of you know, I have been out on the interview trail for a new job. As of this morning, I have officially accepted an offer from a U. in Washington, DC for a big jump in salary and fancy new title. The DH and I will be leaving the Bay Area and joining the DCistas sometime after the New Year.
Wish us luck!
