[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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I just found out, "I'll download the spreadsheet to location files so we can all work on it over the weekend and the Tuesday manager can double check it before sending it out" really means, "Liz will complete the entire thing on Tuesday."

Argh! I thought that the one benefit of our crazy medical system was that if you have insurance, you don't have to wait around for treatment! Why is is that for anything more specialized than my primary care provider, just coming in for a preliminary evaluation takes anywhere from one to three MONTHS?!

Sometimes I have to wait over a month to see my PCP.
Which means, I feel your pain. Fortunately, I have all of my specialists lined up, and they'll double-book me if something comes up.

With Hubby it's because his specialists are so damned backed up with all the people being referred to them. Many of them have secret appointment holes kept open for people like Hubby who, when they get the approval from the insurance company (may fleas infest their neither regions), need surgery sooner rather than later.
For Dr. Wong, Buddhist Saint of Electrocardiology, Hubby has an appointment in March of next year.
With his cardiologist, there's the unspoken "Of course, if one of our patients dies before we can see him, more spots will become available."

sssh. I'm trying to watch HEROES off the NBC website. It's starty-stoppy which is rather annoying, but I figure it's better than me falling asleep here at my desk.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
The extra work today is my reward for having the weekend off. I think it may have been worth it. I got to watch my nephew's mad goalie skills on Saturday followed by a killer lunch at the Cajun place where my sis-in-law insisted on picking up the check. After that Mom convinced me and my sister to come down to her place overnight and we had a riding lesson with Dad on Sunday after which my sister took us all out for lunch at CPK. I hereby declare mango lava coladas the most delciciously embarassing cocktails ever.

Omnis I watched Heroes on line last week and I found the starty-stoppiness improved muchly after I left it on pause for a while.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
If we jokingly encourage her to do it, and she snaps, does that make Bitches all guilty of conspiracy to murder?We just delete the posts. Um, hypothetically. And then hope one of our lawyers is around.
