'Objects In Space'
[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.
Should I not have capitalized "Brazilian" in this context? I don't have my Chicago Manual of Style handy for the section on gential topiary.
I have 2.5 hours to kill, and it's too late to get business done. Should I attempt to post some stuff on craigslist or attempt to flatiron my hair?
Happy Birthday, bug!!
I totally want to work for javachik. You don't need a librarian, do you java?
I am fortunate, though, with a little over 2 days per month PTO, and I think 8 holidays. Work is a flexible about appointments if we're talking under an hour or so (then I can often make it up), but all time, off or otherwise, is by the hour. I think some of the relative strictness is because of being in a union, and working for a state agency. We actually have to fill out leave slips if we miss work. I had never even heard of leave slips before this job.

So tagworthy.

Happy Birthday, V Dub!
I starte dmy new job with 10 vacation, 10 sick, and the "normal" holidays. But Boss is pretty cool about Take a day, work a weekend day and comp time and such.
DH's employer did a thing this year where they lumped all their time off into one giant catagory--sick time, vacation, personal and family leave. I think he gets 45 days off a year but he's been with the company for 10 years.
You could buy a stripper pole for your daughter in Europe about a year ago. 15 Euros or so got you a bright pink kit that was clearly aimed at teen and pre-teen girls. There was a bit of a stink about it; let me see if I can find internet traces...
There was a scandal a Christmas or two ago when stripper pole kits (not as elaborate as in that ad) were accidentally stocked in the toy section. Can't remember what store that was. Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me mentioned it.

Yeah, that's how ours are. Paid Time Off, rather than all the different kinds. I have 18, plus the federals. I really like it a lot better, because, as others have said, it mitigates the unspoken pressure not to use anything but vacation beyond a bare minimum.
Happy Birthday, vw!
