Anya ,'Touched'
[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.
I can cook from scratch (bread) and sew. And I'm used to making do without high-tech things (i.e., no microwave). I can tell stories.
For instance: Two sociologists are walking down the road and come upon a man who's been beaten up and left bleeding. They look at him and one solemnly says to the other, "The person who did this needs our help."
Apocalypse Skills:
I don't know that I have any.
Baby wrangling. After Em, you can probably handle anyone.
True enough.
I can sew, also.
I'm so tired and exhausted right now the only things I can even think of that I am able to do well enough to get us through an Apocalypse is whine, bitch, and moan at potential enemies.
Sadly, this will also get me killed by the cult.
Hmmm...quilting squirrels. Now there's a topic for the next Beauty and the Bug column!
My deelie boppers might also pick up stray radio waves.
Aimee - don't crash before you instruct MM in the sticker assignment you had for him.
Golly, I don't know what P.A. skills I have. In theory I could hunt, as I'm pretty good with a gun, but, like.. I've never actually gone hunting or killed anything before... and well, not so mobile and everything. I don't suppose a need for Audio Engineers would be high on the needs list. O wait, I can knit (kinda) now! (whew... saved!)
What do we know about credit unions?I love mine. I've been a customer of 8 or 9 banks in my 36 years. They all have sucked for one reason or another. Usually something big (like charging me for having less than $x in the account, thus making my savings even smaller). My Credit Union just ROCKS. I'm sure they all have their own rules and stuff, but generally speaking, they have much more favorable interest rates, both as a borrower and a saver. The 3 month CD's at my CU were on par with the ING account, which blows away most banks. As for your bill consolidation loan question. Not sure. Never had one of those. I think what you said is about right. But don't quote me. Either way, go for it. Even if you don't get rid of your old account, it's a good place to get a better rate on loans.
The only Apocalypse Skills I could think of for myself are baby-wrangling (but that's already taken) and my insane near-photographic memory for chunks of completely random text; if every library on Earth were Apocalyzed, I could probably pull together a half-dozen Shakespeare sonnets, recreate most of The Merchant of Venice with a little help, and flood the world with thousands of lines of Ogden Nash.
Aside from that... err, nothing, really, as such.
ION, I just told my boss I'm resigning. I feel like I've just broken up with my dad, only more sad than I would about my actual dad.

ugh. it was really hard when I told my old boss I was leaving, too. We both cried. I cried A LOT.
I'm avoiding calling the possible stoner Jeopardy freak cutie from the market. i so nervous! But also have to go to book group.
JZ - I am reading Rosalind's speech from As You Like It (Act V, Scene 2) for my MOH speech at my sister's wedding.
