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.

Our wings are not tired.

Also, Go Emmett! I'm looking forward to reading the game report later.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

After my mom's mastectomy, I kind of bullied my way into her first post-op bra buying trip, on the grounds that she needed shopping help. I really did it because I knew she thought she looked horrible, and I knew if I saw the scar I could be cool about it. I don't get skeeved by that kind of thing. I don't recall seeing her naked since I was a little kid, but it was fine. It went well and she has since told me it was a help to her.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Thanks, Laura. Is it a breach of etiquette to send a separate letter to potential boss informing him of the submitted application if that person is someone TCG knows and has worked with in the past?

Oh, if it's someone TCG has worked with in the past, I'd say heck no, totally drop that person a line and let them know he's put in an application!!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Barb, could you do a soft garment bag type carryon for the gown, and get by with a smaller suitcase for everything else?

What meara said, sj.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Daisy Jane, insent. Hopefully you still have net access. Yikes, now incoming calls don't work either.

Nope. They've made carrying on requirements much stricter. They have to be much smaller AND you're only allowed one carryon-- and carryons now include purses, so you can't even carry a purse and something else anymore.

Feh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Barb, Is this airline specific? I flew on Alaska a couple of weeks ago, and was able to take both my carry on suitcase and a largeish computer case on board.

“Not dead yet!”

I think some of the smaller/regional airlines aren't quite so anal, Perkins. Frontier was pretty good about it when we flew to San Diego in February, and that's actually who I was going to fly to SF, except they quit flying out of Jacksonville effective immediately back in May. I had two options: either drive two hours to Orlando so I could still fly Frontier, or accept a refund on my flight and rebook.

I rebooked and wound up having to pay nearly $150.00 more plus flying out at 7AM instead of 10.

Really, really hating air travel right now.
