There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

[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.

We're all day-to-day, though, right? Sorry. Damn Mentionitis. My mom had to wear a boot last summer...helping me out while wearing it was a bit "Young Frankenstein".

Punishingly Intricate

Owie ow, Daniel! Send him my best wishes for the good drugs and quick healing, WindSparrow!

So I'm in a leg imobilizer and using a cane (and on a mega-dose of ibu). I think this may be overkill, and the thing is already annoying the hell out of me. I'm supposed to be in this for seven days, but I suspect I'll be giving it up sooner out of annoyance.

Obey your DOCTOR! When best friend effed up her knee but good years ago when she was living with me she was in an immobilizer for ...way longer than 7 days. We called it Immoby so that it would seem more cute than ugly and incovenient. We still talk about it sometimes! "Wonder what Immoby's up to these days?" Anyway, her knee is way better. She's ridden hundreds and hundreds of miles on her bike and is in marathon training now.

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

Feel better-ma to Frank and Daniel.

I'm back from my doctors appointment. Appaparently starting to feel better and then feeling worse is common with effexor because of the two different drugs in it. Yay? IOW, I get to wait it out, but he did up my dose.

I'm still waiting for word of J's surgery.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Daniel and Frank, stop this mess right now! You're both supposed to be healthy! Get better now.

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

VW, awesome you on the gold star!!

Boo on everyone being sick, injured, and otherwise not fully able to defend the cemetery from the walking undead. What will Buffy do without us?!?! And dang it, where is Willow??? Oops, sorry, out loud typing again.

What kind of drafting?
first I'm doing single line drawings of the sound system to figure out what we can and can't do. Then I'll probably draft where the speakers and mic's go on the ground plan. And I should do a section to figure out the angle that the trio of speakers that will fly on the B-ring. (and where the word "I" is used, really all should say "the Designer", but alas, that won't happen).

So. Words of wisdom from the wise hive mind? What do you do with an employee who is chronically late... like really late... like call at 1pm when he is supposed to be here and wake him up late so he arrives all non-showered and stinky late? And often times saying "so when can I get a break to get food, I haven't eaten yet today" :: head-desk ::

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

healing~ma to Daniel and Frank

Kick Some Ass is by Stroke 9 and it's on the Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back soundtrack. It's my naked dancing song.

Omnis, do you have a written-warning system at your work? Here we would give him a verbal, then a written, then a final, then term him. If you don't have that you could try telling him, "Show up late again and you're fired."

I take cranberry pills every day. Poor Daniel, though. He must have been feeling bad for a while.

thing is, I really don't want to fire him. He's like an unpolished gem. But he's 21 going on 14 or something. You try and get all grr and bossy, and he turns into punk rebel teenager. But it feels like he's walking over me, and it sucks. I'm wondering if there is some cool teacher voodoo that will work. He's not responding to the Disney mantra (if your early, your on time. If your on time, your late. If your late, your fired), and doesn't get the math of the "uff-dah" to "that-a-boy" ratio (1:10). And, he's not as tidy as my old ass't, so things look like an 8 year olds bedroom. shit EVERYWHERE. ugggg.
