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.
Totally unspecific and still completely potential but I'm having a job related squeeee right now. AIFG. Or I hope it will be great.
Some work related~ma over the next 24 hours would no go amiss. I promise.
Good luck Suzi!
Not really a squee, but big boss brought her little boy in today. All morning long he's been poking his head in and saying, "Hi Miss DJ!" So freaking cute! And calming after all the irritating phone calls.

I just got off the phone with the girl who introduced me to Depeche Mode our senior year. She made a Star Trek joke, I followed up with another one, she talked about loving TNG, I talked about loving Voyager. She talked about never seeing Enterprise, I told her how Joe watched the first episode and immediately stopped watching after hearing the theme song. She says something about the worst theme song belonging to the best show ever and in my head I'm thinking, "She's gonna say Firefly. She's gonna say Firefly." and what does she say?

Me: Hello, customer
Customer: I have a problem with your program.
Pause while I wait for explanation and he waits for my telepathy to reveal his problem to me.
Customer: Are you there?
Me: not saying "I'm here, I'm not sure about you" nor saying simply "Yes." No, I have to be professional and say, "What problem are you having, customer?"
Customers, please! Don't be the person who the tech people are telling their office neighbors about! For your own sense of self-worth, stop giving us ammunition!

What is it with the telepathy thing? I do not know who you are or why you called or who you are calling. Stop. It.
Ugh, it's so cold and dry outside that I sprung a spontaneous nosebleed while on the bus going to therapy.
I balanced that out with going to the Indian buffet place afterward. NOM!
