Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?  

[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Just caught up and now I have to go to the doctor for my diabetes update. (Get the tires kicked, check the fluids, etc)

I should mention that I had my six-months-late yearly review Wednesday.

I got an 8.5% raise.

Retroactive to my hiring date anniversary.

Feb 16.

heh.

Me? Extrovert. I still hate big crowds (thoguh the F2Fs never bothered me).

Daniel, that's awesome! It's nice to see someone else appreciating your excellence.

Yay Daniel! Very nice.

Sean, I hope your transition both into and then, soon, out of the spare room goes smoothly. You are taking care of YOU and that is not a selfish thing to do. It is key.

Mostly lurking...

Wow, Daniel, that's fantastic!

Raq, they're giving away Wiis? I WANT! But I don't see that promo on their website. Sad now.

not your mom's socks.

Comcast is giving a Wii to new subscribers

yes. although if you already took the red pill, you are stuck with last year's gameboy.

And his whole reason for not wanting me to telecommute is that he doesn't like me being away from my office.

why do I suspect this is a line-of-sight issue?

I'm dragging myself out of the apartment now to get my comics and stop by the farmer's market. I'm hoping it will make me feel a little better to do something fun, and I need to find out why everyone is freaking out about the most recent Buffy.

Or, who doesn't know my safe word.

::starts guessing:: Waterloo? Rutabega? Bhutros Bhutros Gali?

I just have to say, the idea of "Bhutros Bhutros Gali" being someone's safe word delights me no end.

I don't think I'm an introvert, I think I just don't like many people. I can be very happy in a large crowd if I don't have to talk to them. I loved sitting in the food court at JFK, pretending to read my book as I stared at everyone else. I'm good at retreating to a corner of a crowd and just watching.

I can chit chat with folks, but then I get bored. I suspect that at the heart of me I'm just a crabby misanthrope in training.
