I don't think I've ever gotten a raise that wasn't couched as a promotion, actually. And I've gotten a new title without more money at least once.
Angel: Just admit it: you think you're gonna ride in, save the day, and sweep Buffy off her--Spike: Like you're not thinking the same thing. Angel: I'm already seeing somebody. Spike: What, dog girl?

Dog is my co-pilot.
Hi, Laura. I didn't find that book where I was told it would be--the humor section. Instead, it was on the New Nonfiction table right at the front door. And drywall is fun. I learned drywall because my first pup enlarged an existing hole in the basement wall. And my sister has a bunny named Hazel.
My weekend plans include finding homes for needy Labs (a Lab Rescue adoption day) tomorrow. Sunday remains vague. I'm off grad school for the first long stretch in 2 years and I keep telling myself I'm going to get my house clean, my closets and drawers straight, etc. But I keep reading and watching DVDs instead. It's just so nice to veg.

I'm watching some model show on TLC and the girls are all saying, "I've never walked before," and it's TOTALLY the model-world equivalent of a woman at an early job asking me if I'd ever opened mail before. Of course I have! Just not professionally.

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

Aww, babe, enjoy the vegging instead. Including here!

"Actually, no. I wonder if that's why my heat won't turn on?"

Heh.

Our wings are not tired.

I checked all the tables up front, but the place was such a zoo it wasn't easy. Computer says they are there, so the next trip in that direction I'll try again. I could pick up that book I hear is available later today then too.

Well, I am going to go crawl under my covers and watch pre-recorded tv stuff. Current temp is 53 and is supposed to go into the 40s tonight! Forgive my fascination with this. Laura, you are not in Florida anymore. Free A/C, Whee!

Welcome Bobbi!
Aww, brenda, I've been watching Standoff, though I'm not right this moment, and now I'm a little sad that I'm going to have to watch kinda-crap tv. And they were doing so well.

Books and DVDs are incredibly sneaky that way.
