MM and I will be dark this weekend. Going to Michigan for a wedding.
Tara: That was funny if you've studied Taglarin mystic rites and... are a total dork... Riley: Then how come Xander didn't laugh?

If everything goes very well, next week I'll be in Massachusetts with Reema, who is, if I didn't mention it to you in all-capital letters, the girl I'm in love with.
I'm not sure that there exists getting-parents-who-five-minutes-ago-said-yes-and- now-say-no-to-change-their-minds-back-again -ma, but if there is any, the Buffistas can wield it; so if you can spare any, please send that our way.
Meep.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Back on Cable Modem.
I got a month credit, so I guess that means if I don't pay, I'll lose it again in a month.
Hmmm... what can I sell on eBay.....

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Got a job interview Monday afternoon.
Wish me -ma!

Another social casualty...
I am going to be pale black for the next week or so. DH and I are finally taking our oft-postponed and long awaited vacation to Florida. Home! Yay!
Wishes of non-stupid drivers on the roads and general kitty health are appreciated.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
One of the partners in my lawfirm was made a judge. His secretary has been given my attorneys.
The secretary who left earlier this week was half sec/half office assistant. She made about 10k less than me.
I've been laid off.
I walked the two blocks from my office to that of darling Tom Scola and, quite literally, cried on his shoulder-- thanks Tom. Atkins has been called off for the moment, I have a bottle of frozen vodka in one hand and a popsicle in the other. My sister is coming into the city tonight to take me out. I may be lurkish for a while, I don't know. For now the Great Midwestern Buffista and Ice Cream Tour is cancelled. I guess I won't be going to see Air Supply at the Westbury Music fair but that was dorky anyway. Notes, chocolate death-bombs and offers to make sweet, sweet love to me gladly accepted.

In GOOD news, I got big-ass promotion today! I applied for this job seven weeks ago and was sure they were giving it to the other in-house applicant, who is 2 years younger than me and very sweet and kinda dim--but a demon-fast captioner--but, surprisingly, no. I get a big enough raise that I get to quit my other job, thus adding many more hours free to my week, and I do less captioning, which should make my arms quit aching. I am VERY pleased.
I'm management now, baby!

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
My already darkish grey is going inky until I figure out what this new icon is on my PC here at work.
If any Buffista knows what a "Remote Management" icon is for, please email me at my profile addy.
I think they're watching me.

On my way out the door for my job interview! Wish me luck!
