I think we're going kitten shopping this weekend. Shadow, our surviving cat, has been out of sorts and grumpy since Koogie died. He needs someone to nap against and give attack baths to. And I've been needing something warm and fuzzy to cuddle. Shadow is not a cuddle cat--I blame Hubby and his tendency to play cat-Uzi. Yeah, it's time. Off to the shelter, as Hubby calls it "Dog-cau, the saddest place on earth."
And boys -- let's watch the swearing.

Spike's Bitches 39: Cuppa Tea, Cuppa Tea, Almost Got Shagged, Cuppa Tea...
[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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I'm sure I've shared this here before but the WORST GAME EVER at a baby shower was called "Guess what baby ate" or something like that. Melted candy bars in little diapers. People were actually sniffing the diapers to deterine what candy bars were in there. I was pregnant at the time and had to sit that one out as the mere image of people sniffing diapers and melted chocolate "poo" made me gag.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Stephanie, I went to one where that happened, too. YUUUUCK.
I once played one where we had to guess the names of baby animals (it was a co-worker at The Nature Conservancy). That was cool but man, I wish I had been able to text billytea because some of them were HARD.

Also, based on our discussion, I think I’d feel more comfortable thinking about the higher end of the range I mentioned yesterday afternoon.
you might want to put actual numbers in there. Remember that much of the reason that women are paid less than men is that they do not negotiate as hard or ask for as much money.

Also, based on our discussion, I think I’d feel more comfortable thinking about the $XY,000 end of my salary requirements that I mentioned yesterday.

I like the second one Nora. Don't be afraid to ask for what you deserve. If they say no, you haven't lost anything.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Yesterday was definitely on the list - my boss was in a pissy mood (didn't take it out on me, bless him), one of our staff got in a super-energetic state and kept coming up with ideas that she needed my input to make work AND bombarding me with e-mails about scheduled things ... that were months in advance AND were inaccurate. bleah.
