Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[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.

meara! The DC Kings are mentioned in an article in today's Slate! [link]

Yep! I'd heard about it for a while. Not really impressed with the article, though...normally I like her stuff, but all the stuff about how her daughter was freaked out and disgusted by her and by drag queens? Eesh.

GREAT phone call. The guy definiately wants to work with me but he doesn't have an open position at the moment. BUT the position he is working on creating sounds perfect for me and is a great mix of the skills I already have and the challenges of working on his team

OOoh, fingers crossed for you, Suzi!

GF has been un-laid off. That place is weird, but at least this is good weird. I guess her boss went to bat for her.

Eep! Well, fingers crossed that whatever's best works out for her.

I think I enjoyed the latest Kushiel book (#2 in the second trilogy?) better than the one before that.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

GF has been un-laid off.

That's good news! Yay for good news. We need some. Also, Suzi's phone interview sounds like good news, too.

Have I been skipping and skimming too much to catch it, or has Sean brought any news of how S is doing?

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I'm still at work too, but mostly because I'm having internet issues at home. Since it's almost 11 pm, I should think about getting home soon though.

Suzi, best of luck with your potential work endeavors!

eta Yay about the unlayingoff for GF too!

S is out of surgery, and really really groggy. She's doing okay, but there's (as is typical) the potential for some complications. So far, so good, but we'll have to wait out the next couple of days to see how things go.

GC, go home already, or something. Stab people in the face (with unicorns and puppies, possibly) if you have to.

Yay for un-laid offness!

Sentence you don't hear every day:

"Excuse me, ladies. I got a potato gun for Christmas. I'm very excited."

Ginger, I just sent an email to the address I had in my addy book for you. It was a mindspring address, if that's still good.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Sean, I'm sorry I didn't get to stop by today. I am just now home from work. GC, I hope you get home soon!

ION, my cousin finally sent me pictures from my visit in October! I think this is my favorite one (I don't look that good, but I like the expressions): [link]

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

I don't look that good
BWAH!!! You are So. Wrong.

Sean, I'm glad the surgery went well. Crossing fingers everything continues to improve.

I finished ten papers! I love Panera so damned much. There was a jazz duet playing live music, too, so it was pretty much my ideal grading environment. I'm going to try to do a few more papers tonight (I'd hoped to do twenty today, but I think 13 may be it), but I'm proud of myself for buckling down and completing at least that much.

I still have 28 more of these suckers, 58 final exams, and 4 creative writing portfolios. Sigh. But these essays are the hardest. Once I finish them, I'll be in good shape.
