[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Heh. I mentioned that to him, Aimee. We'll see if he gets an interview. Thing is, he likes his job but he's getting sort of jerked around. His boss promised him a promotion this summer that he has yet to see. He's started getting the responsibilities, but not the title or the money.

Hence the job search. It's not as if DH started calling--he just took a call from a recruiter and the offers started flowing in. We'll see what comes of it. He could always give his boss a chance to counter.

I missed Chuck and need to see if it's available online. I suspect it conflicts with Monday Night Football so I need to start recording it.

I need to finish getting us dressed so we can go to the gym.

Is it the Steven's Point job that he's looking at?

Ah, I know this well (when Tom went through it over the past year or so). It's so frustrating and angry-making!

Er. I would wipe them off the best you can. If they're not rare, or precious to you, I'd set them out in the sun and let the fresh air and orb do their work. If they're damp from the shampoo, you could also put cloth or paper between the pages and put a weight on top for a couple of days to see if you can soak some out.

Job ~ma to Cash's DH! May he get an offer in a place you love or use an offer to get better treatment at his current place of employment.

ugh. I'm reacting totally disproprotionately to a weird work thing (just some document stuff) and, ugh. I should not be upset about this at all, let alone THIS upset. Hmm. What to do?

What to do?

I can think of only one solution: donuts!

Someone just emailed me about planning for a meeting that's happening next July. Now, I'm definitely a plan-ahead kind of person, but I'm not sure I can plan this far ahead.

Be upset for a while, then tell yourself that you're over it because it wasn't important in the first place. Your brain is probably just latching on to this thing to get some crying out over another thing. At least, that's what mine brain does.

TCG has my car today because his is still in the shop. He just called to say he also has my cellphone because I left it in my car.
