omnis, congratulations and good luck!
Cashmere, yay buy out!
We're headed home now from vw's lovely party. There was much fun, good food, and wonderful margaritas. vw makes one very delicious carrot cake.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[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.

Have you reverse engineered Gene's plans yet?
Before anybody gets too happy about following Gene's plans, it is maybe worth remembering that a) in order to separate your body into its component atoms, it must first be heated to a temperature hotter than the sun, and b) once you have been so separated, your bits are then effectively squirted through a tube (the Annular Confinement Beam).

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

o_a, that's HUGE! Congratulations!
Go, Kristin!
Party over. Me sleepy. Much fun was had. My thesis buddy's adorable little sister was the "official photographer." I can't wait to upload these pictures and share. They are so priceless. My favorite is the one of the cake in the fridge.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Congrats again o_a. And see you tomorrow!

I'm getting the pig!
Lots of good things tonight!
I'm glad your party went well, vw. I'll try to wait patiently for the pictures.
Yay Cashmere! I can only imagine what a huge weight has been lifted off of your mind. (At least until I have a better idea when I put my own place on the market in the next few months.)
Wow Kristin - you're definitely in demand. Have you thought about buying a lottery ticket? Or maybe seven? You seem to be on a good streak. Go you!
Congrats, omnis! May the packing and moving and unpacking go as smoothly as possible.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
thanks for all the congrats! I'm nervous, excited, happy, sad. I'm a ball of emotions. Now that I finally have the "am I leaving" anxiety out of the way, it has been replaced with:
- moving- movers or pod? will my shit fit in a pod? packing/unpacking pod PITA. Cost of movers instead of pod
- finding an apartment. And why do the online rental thingies show so many outside shots, and NONE of the interior?! Hello! I live inside. A few of the community, great, but some of actual apartments, BETTER!
:: sigh ::
it will be a fun 6 weeks.

My something from the something store has shipped! I hope it's a machete.

WHeeeeee! Series of tuuuuuuuubes!!!
I'm tipsy!
I took exactly $15 to the club. Enough for 3 beers and tips. I knew that was plenty of alcohol. I wanted to get drunko ff my ass, but that was a bad plan. I am too mature for that. Instead, I figured three beers was one beer more than I can handle. And i got 2/3 of the way through it and went "uh oh, I am feeling maudlin cause they are playing COUNTRY MSUCI, THE MUSIC OF PAIN". Which I said out loud to the girl next to me, who didn't get it cause she is no t a buffistas. (DO YOU know how many times I have had to bacckspace while typing this?? MANY TIMES).
But overall it was a good good evening. I didn't actually dance all that mch, but one of my good friends was there, so i was able to be all "OMG" and hug and cry, and then GILF and her boytoy from DC were there, unexpectedly, and were surprisingly nice, and flirty, and so that went well, and was pretty good, as these things go. And I did not get too drunk, and did not stay too sober, and did not divulge TOO much information, though I did probably say a bit too much, but that happens when you're unahppy and tipsy, but i don' think anyone at all figured out WHY. Just that I was upset, and horny. Which, hi, been there for months, so that's nothing new.
And the gayboy who does the hustle came back this week! So we befriended him some more! YAY! We like him.
PLUS< THIS WEEK WITH GAY RUGGERS! THey were cute. We paid one (it was a fundraiser to send htem TO IRELAND!) to take his shirt off and do pushups.
