Everyone I've known that has worked on cruises say the same thing. Great money, sucky cabin and horrific hours. Very cool to get the gig. I hope the experience has some fun mixed in with the work. Which route?
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

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 have no idea on the routes or anything like that.
I get whatever cabin is left over, so probably an inside stateroom.
I've never even seen the ship, so I have no idea what I'm up against. Disney is flying me out to Cape Canaveral in a little more than 10 days to do a site visit while the ship is in port for a day, so I'll know some more then.

Congrats on the Disney cruise gig, ND.
I love the Reese's PB & Banana cups but didn't realize that they were collectable - I did realize the Elvis collection. I find mine at the local Walgreen's. I prefer the regular sized ones to the miniatures.

Collectible candy? Who collects chocolates? I think someone else mentioned Walgreen's, too. I need to get over there. My usual pharmacy is CVS.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Beverly, I always enjoy reading your birthday and anniversary wishes.
I had a very fun evening out, and came home to find they've I guess given an official diagnosis (not very different from what my mom already suspected and I concurred) - Bacterial Spondylodiscitis. On the plus side, the patient reports mom has linked all report excellent outcomes. It's mostly found in the lumbar/sacral region, and is pretty rare in the cervical region. I suspect he'll need another surgery to fix the damaged bones, but I am not sure how France does it.

I hope now that they have a diagnosis, your dad is feeling better soon, d.
ND, that sounds like a great gig. Good luck with it.
I mentioned to someone the last week that I have become a normal sleeper. I obviously jinxed myself, because I haven't been able to fall aseep at the usual time all week.

I'm glad the prognosis sounds good for your dad, d.
I've lost my favorite flip flops. It's not a huge tragedy but they were nice and comfy. I just hope I didn't leave them at the gym.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Back from Emmett's game in Alameda. I was supposed to meet Suzi for coffee while his team was practicing before the game, but something must have gotten all muddled because I never found her, and my stupid phone won't let me save numbers anymore so I couldn't call her. I am feeling quite oafish.
However, Emmett's team slaughtered the opposition. 13-0 at the bottom of the fourth and we all went home.
