Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

That's awesome Laura! Yay, what a relief.

I got a shipment of office supplies! Wheeee!! I am trying not to rip open all the pens just to test them out. :)

Vortex, um...I'm hoping by the time I post this someone will have come up with a good synonym.

Though I have somewhere a great sheet full of work/resume appropriate synonyms somewhere I can scan and send if you want...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh--background, understanding, previous exposure?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm so glad they both took it well, Laura!

Background, Vortex?

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

Laura, that's great. I'm glad everything seems to be working out.

Laura, I'm glad it went well.

ION, I am full of GLEEEEEE! Because my pet gothy DJ is going to be spinning a goth night again, ON A WEEKEND. At a smoke-free venue. The guardian spirits and angels of eldergoths have smiled upon me.

That's great news, Laura! But we knew he wouldn't be able to hold out against your charm and perseverence.

Thanks for the help. Now "experience" = "background and accomplishments"

also, what's a polite way to say when someone else was fired. Basically, I took on the additional responsibility when the Dean of Admissions _____. I could go with "left unexpectedly". I mean, I suppose I don't care that she was fired, and they wouldn't either. Oh, maybe I'll go with that, to show that I can be diplomatic.
