I meant to say earlier, GG, I'm horrified at the schedule you're going to be on next year. I understand why you guys can't just leave, but I wish there were some way out for you. It's abusive, the way they treat you.
I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
edit because it is not cool the way GG is being treated
it's the one where we did Food of the Gods and Plan 9 From Outer Space
Oh cool- I'd been planning to watch the same movies to deepen my enjoyment of the podcasts but I'm already half done with this one so I feel I can dive right in when I get home.

“Not dead yet!”
My husband is doing the Snoopy Dance of Joy as we just discovered the Freakazoid, S1 will be released on DVD on Tuesday.
I now have an anniversary present for him.
Drew, I can see you doing a reach around from 150 miles away.

I'm not sure if I should be more amused by the faith you all have in me, or concerned by my reputation.
GG, you deserve to be somewhere better, and believe me I've been trying to plot ways to get you to LA. You've been on the other end of the country for far. too. long.
K should get you a job at her school. We'll work something out for your husband. No really. We will.

Dude, both, of course.

Don't laugh too much, it's now your reputation by association.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
K should get you a job at her school.
I'm now envisioning a school with an all-Buffista teaching staff, and it is truly awesome.
(And, while we're on that dream, do y'all need a fencing coach and an instructional technologist?)

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
It's abusive, the way they treat you.
It's comforting that Hub and I aren't the only ones who seem to think so. The school seems to be of the opinion that if I don't like it I can just quit. They seem to think there are dozens of people ready to take my spot. However, the school can't seem to keep any kind of teachers (we have 7 openings right now).
One of the other 2 high schools in the county has an opening for a Drama teacher; but, the program blows. They have had 5 teachers in 10 years and the kids think they run the program. It really wouldn't improve anything to transfer. The 7 of 8 schedule would stay the same as would English classes.
In a year and a half one of my mentors will retire. He is at a community college in Ocala (40 min drive). He would love to see me take his place and has said I'll get his recommendation and reference. It's a long time to wait, though, and there is no guarantee I'll get the job when the time comes.

I'd maybe renew my certificate for that.

Okay, could I maybe just be novelist in residence or just the eccentric buddy or sumtin' like that?
