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.
K-Bug has discovered that our cat likes Screaming Hot Cheetos.
Oy.
It'll be pink. And yummy sounding.
Hmm. Salad is green and reddish-purple. Quinoa is orange and green. Cherries are red. I've got two vegetables, a fruit, and a protein. I think I'm missing a grain and something yellow.
I'm not going to make cornbread.
hivemind question -- there have been a lot of emails flying back and forth with my family regarding our cancelled family reunion. A lot of people are pissed, so some of the emails are a little . . . testy. One of my uncles called another uncle a fa**ot. I'm debating as to whether to let it go. If we were in person, i'd definitely say something. I want to respond but in light of the current animosity, should I leave it alone? If i do respond, should I reply to all, or just an email saying "hey, I'd appreciate it if you knocked off the offensive name calling"
Add cheese and you have my perfect salad. Because I feel salads are best with cheese, fruit, nuts and most anything else in them. (Okay, including meat but I am being discrete because that's a hell of a thing to say to a vegetarian.)
I just figured all pink eventually because I have yet to find the thing that beets can't turn purple-y pink.
Oh, except my hair on any kind of permanent basis. But I got in trouble for trying that.
Vortex--I'd say the "lay off the name calling thing."
So, I have an update. Or 12.
I moved out of my apartment. I'm staying with T for a few days and helping her unpack (she just bought a house).
My mother decided that it was Not Okay for me to drive that far in that large a vehicle by myself.
So she's flying in to go with me. Joy.
I sent an email to the people running the summer program I was going to do (training to teach at the adolescent level). They sent me an email back that they really want me, and me in particular, to come. So, the head of the program, who is like The Guy for Montessori Adolescent stuff, is helping me find a job.
He called tonight to get permission to give my number to a school he's close with that just lost their Upper Elementary teacher (ages 9-12, the same I taught this year).
The school's in Northern Indiana, so I'll probably be stopping there on my way to Ohio. Ummm, possibly going to the homestead first, but, really, who can tell, as the program starts in less than a week.

That's great!

It really is, Hil. It's very unexpected and happening very quickly, so I'm, like, trying to not make any plans I don't absolutely have to, because who the fuck knows, you know?
Time for JZ haircut pictures.
