Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

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.

Mostly lurking...

ChiKat, that's awesome! Good luck!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ooh, that's great ChiKat! Good luck!

And HR~ma to Jilli.

Well, that was uneventful. The meeting took about 15 minutes, and boiled down to "If you don't feel comfortable telling this guy to stop contacting you, your HR rep will. Let us know."

So, off to reply to one of KindaStalker's emails with "I'm not comfortable with this level of interest. Please do not contact me again."

Hope that takes care of it, Jilli.

What is even happening?

Good luck, Jilli. May this be the end of it.

I think I just had a parental milestone moment. Ben asked me what AIDS is.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm so sorry you have to deal with this, Jilli. I hope that this is the end of it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Eep. What did you say?

My grandfather's cancer hasn't metastasized. That's a relief.

I'm sorry HR wasn't more helpful, Jilli. I think you did the right thing by reporting your discomfort and asking for help, but I wish you'd walked out of there feeling satisfied with the HR department's efforts on your behalf.

Tonight I have my first pilates class and I've got butterflies because I hate walking into a new place with new people. Maybe the studio will have stairs under which I can hide.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Gorgeous tat, Juliana.

Me? I'm home from work. I went in only long enough for someone else to get there to take my place. I was up most of the night with fever 102ish two hours after taking a couple Tylenol, which generally are brilliant for my fevers. As the only other symptoms are sinus/allergy type, I infer there is a sinus infection. I'm taking olive leaf and cayenne extract. Definitely improving - as I feel mostly ok when I'm sitting around doing nothing. It's when I get ambitious and try to do something that I get slammed with the need to nap.

ooh me too! I like to hug a wall. ... even if I do know some of the people.

I need some kind of job-related -ma something I think. My friend's company (which used to be part of my company sort of) wants to interview me next week. I'll go for the experience (I've been in this job for 7! years) but ... I dunno. I don't know if I want to be doing basically the same thing in the same industry and leave my beloved boss and co-workers. despite all the annoyances of working here. I'm really nervous about it all right now. gah!
