All my ~ma, Sox. I hope this bidding-war unpleasantness turns out to be just a small bump in a long happy history with the house.

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Poor Nora! Universities aren't supposed to work people that hard! Will you get any comp time (official or unofficial)?
House ~ma, Sox!

Because books.
House~ma to Sox! Where is the house?
Still sick. My sinuses hate me. The feeling is mutual.

House ~ma, Sox. the whole ordeal is so stressful.

Commencement was Friday and our office runs reunions for our section of the School. Happily, it's only once a year, and even more happily, I'm an hourly employee who's about to collect on 26 hours of time and a half OT. I's just tired today and it's gonna be a long week...
But everything went really well all weekend so we're being showered with kudos and I think that this week will be pretty mellow in the office, 'cause we're all wiped out.

amyliz -it's north of the city. I'm being cagey because I'm afraid of teh jinx.
PSA (and good ~ma forward): i just got phished from someone spoofing an amazon order - without my spam goggles on, it looks relatively real - even has an order number on it and says that I need to give them a valid form of payment in 24 hours. the return links are coded, but they basically go back to www.iamahacker.com. be careful if you get anything like it from the internets today. I get a bunch of them, but this one looked righter than usual.

My department is topsy-turvy today because one of the department heads was bitten by a spider on Wednesday afternoon and no one has heard from her since despite phone and email messages asking what's happening. She's not the drama queen type, but she is the hermity type, so we've sent a couple people over to her house.
Nora, I hope someone takes you out to lunch or something, instead of just speaking kudos.
Sox's bid-upon house is cute! ::crosses fingers harder::

Nora, I hope this week goes by quickly for you.

Stomach linings are overrated. As are livers. ::passes bottle to Sox::
