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.

You guys are a bad influence. You know that, right? I still have to work on "In your own handwriting, provide any additional information you desire that will afford an additional understanding of your qualifications. Your goals, objectives, philosophy, and other background factors are of special interest."
My goal is to get a job. My objective is to... get a job. My philosophy is that having a job provides money and medical care, both of which are good. My background includes other jobs, and also lots of school.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe you should mention your background also includes sarcasm, in case they miss it?
eta: And why do they insist it be in your own handwriting? They don't want you to use a computer and scanner? Or they think you might cheat?

I like the "in your own handwriting" part. I sometimes wish I'd made certain students submit samples before I let them into a class because I end up crying over the scribbles in a bluebook.

It's a good question. I mean, it's not like I could type it -- seriously, I think the gap between the lines is too small. I handwrote my "Additional remarks and/or explanations" and barely managed to fit in the explanation (and I feel a bit of schadenfreude for whoever has to read it, especially the faxed version). So the only thing they're ruling out is having somebody else write it.
There is, no exaggeration, about a centimeter between the lines. Acrossthehall!Teacher suggested I treat it like a child's composition book.

Moving~ma, Emily! I hate those forms where you have to write things in by hand. I don't write small and my lines always end up slanting up towards the righthand corner. It looks stupid.

KristinT -Omnis, you know MM--he's Aimee's husband, father of Em. They live in Michigan now. Also, hi! How are the kitties?Yes KT, I know who he is and where he is. Guess I should have said "did you move BACK to the OC" or something. :: sigh :: funnies always sound funnier in the head then on the board.
Kitties are fine. Mia is hiding. Byron is King and can't make up his mind if he is inside, or outside. Mom came to visit and took her to the Huntington and the LA Arboretum. We both thought the Huntington Gardens were FAR superior! Oy vey did I get my excercise for the week.

Oops! D'uh. I'm slow with the funny, Omnis. I gotcha now. Glad you had fun with your mom!
Emily, all the best with your move! May you find the perfect school in Virginia. And yeah, sorry about the very annoying application fun.
Have you looked into the VA state licensure process? How's it looking?

Sort of stranded at work. Feh. I work pretty close to the 'splodey and there aren't really any good transportation options to get home. So I'll do some overtime and all that until the car service can find a car for me.

Shit, Trudy. Glad you're okay. That's pretty scary. Good luck getting home soon.
