Not that we'll be applying until Joe gets a job, but yeah - house loan.
Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[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.
I think I must have known that it was the plan for you guys to buy a place, but I hadn't realized it would be right away. That's so great!
Continuing job~ma for Joe, of course.
Aimee, sort-of congratulations. Mostly best wishes for finding a job which will make you happier and give your family budget more room for new tiaras.
sj, sorry you are in pain.
askye, I think you are the cat's pyjamas. Not what you are after, but hey, don't give up.
I want:
- Someone to give me my sheepskin on the strength of having done 3/4 of the academic work (and damn near killed myself doing so) plus working in the field for 8 years.
- To be skinny.
- To use the front porch as a porch instead of a store room.
I want:
Direction and focus
To have a clearer picture of what's going to happen in the next few months
A motorcycle
I want:
To have certain investments finally pay off.
A good book deal.
More fun local gothy events to get dressed up for.
(There is, of course, LOTS more that I want, including to have my yearly review already written, and to get a REALLY GOOD review because of it. But those three are the big ones right now.)
Ooh, I have to add a Thing I Want, because I just stubbed my toe on the big plastic storage box under the bed. Again.
- I want to -- finally -- organize the twenty years' worth of pictures I've taken into albums.
I want:
- this merger that is making my husband work crazy long hours to be done
- my house to be clean
- to know what to do next
I want:
- to be able to catch up on sleep and stay that way
Another example of my Big Dorkiness: I have that iGoogle theme with the little fox who lives in the gazebo. Right now, he's doing laundry. I'm doing laundry. I'm all pleased to be in sync with the fox made of pixels, because he seems to have a pretty good life.
I want
- Peace and quiet so I can do creative projects
- To know how to fly a helicopter
- my life to be settled
Hey Hec and JZ - Jennifer T is in Games mag this month about women-only game competitions. Apparently her win in 2005 dramatically raised the number of female competitors.
