I was literally watching the mailman walk up my driveway with "Torchwood" in hand when my boss called me in early. Captain Jack is at my house and I'm at work! wah!
Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

[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.

Good news - got an e-mail from HR
Bad news - saying that they should have the documentation ready tomorrow.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry they are dragging this out, Suzi. I hope it ends up being good news when it eventually comes.

Anyone here rented a place in the Outer Banks? The DH and I are thinking of going down to Kitty Hawk in April. Anything I should I know about locations?
One of my best friends and her kiteboarding-fiend DH were there a few months ago. I could email her and ask where they stayed if you'd like. It'll take a day or two. She always has good referrals/used to be a travel planner (among other things) at her old company. Let me know.

Yeah, that's all I got.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am SO fucked.
There's a Lush store opening on Friday in the mall that's literally across the street from my office.
Goodbye, debt reduction.
(We'll ignore how I totally didn't know it was happening until 5 minutes ago.)

Java Cat, if your friend has any tips, I'd love to hear them.
I do think Sass is dangerously cute, but I might be biased.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
One of my critique partners, in a dispute about a research question on Wellington's army by another group member, just basically accused me of being "too much influenced by Sharpe and his ilk."
I tore her a new one for suggesting I was too intellectually sloppy to do my own research, and listed three nonfiction sources, none of which were by Bernard Cornwell and two of which predate the Sharpe series, for my side of the argument. I then invited her to cite any sources contradicting mine, because I would like to fill in any gaps in my library! I probably overreacted, but, dammit, I research my ass off on this stuff!
I'm still quivering with anger. Deep breaths. Deep breaths.

Goodbye, debt reduction.
It'll be fine. Now that you know that it's right there, it wont be special anymore. You'll buy a bunch of stuff right off, then taper off.
