Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

[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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dulles

Trust my rage

Aimée, I'd wait 15 minutes and then send an email.

I agree. Better to look overeager than not interested.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Dulles is closest, but National is within reasonable distance.

How does this sound?

Hi J,

I didn't hear back from you confirming a time and I wanted to touch base with you and see when would be a good time for you.

I'm not sure if it was clear in me cover letter, but I am still in Los Angeles. I will be in Ann Arbor as of May 6th. I would love to do a phone interview now and then see you in person once I get back to Michigan.

Thank you so much for your time,

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Dulles. And while you are in Reston, go to Lake Anne Plaza and visit Reston's Used Bookstore (My mom's former store)!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

What everyone else said, Suzi. Dulles is often cheaper than National anyway.

And of course Dulles = IAD. That makes perfect logical sense (DUL = Dulluth).

OK - so who lives over there? I'm gonna be there for about a week either the second week of May or the second week of June.

When did you move to London?

I'd change a few things:

"Dear J,

We didn't confirm a time for an interview so I want to touch base and select a good time for you.

To reiterate, I am still in Los Angeles. I will be in Ann Arbor as of May 6th. I would love to do a phone interview now and then see you in person once I get back to Michigan.

Thank you so much for your time,"

And then you're golden.

Oooh, lots of us do! Including me! Reston's considered a suburb of DC.

Don't pick the second week of May--I'll be out of town for work for most of it. June, on the other hand, is looking good.

Things are still bubbling - so the dates aren't set. It looks like our office moved to Chantiliy? Our travel site is recommending hotels in D.C.
