I struggle with this all the time, especially when I'm grappling with depression. But that's also a factor of having some flexibility with work - when I had jobs where it was more rigid, it was still a scramble, but I didn't let the time slip nearly as badly.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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.

J is out of surgery! Everything went perfectly, and hopefully he won't need another one until he needs his pacemaker moved in about 6 years. I can breathe again.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh, hooray for J!

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I remember various of the songs I had, but figured I'd ask the Bitches if they have any suggestions. It's mostly cheesy stuff--I have some country songs ("Stand" by Rascall Flatts), "Fighter", by Christina Aguilera, "Stronger" by Kanye...I forget what else, I have to go through my music. Other suggestions?
Chumbawumba - Tubthumping.
Gloria Gaynor - I will Survive
Destiny's Child - Survivor
Louis Armstrong - Everybody wants to be a cat (...er, just because.)
Fairground Attraction - Perfect

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
yay for J! Enjoy the morphine Daniel!
Amych, you are wise.
As a treat for myself for having to deal with lack-o-timeswareness employee, I drove downtown after work to the Central Library branch of the Dallas Public Library. I now have a library card!!! Best thing about having the new drivers licence. With it, I've signed out the next season of Stargate Atlantis! 7 days, no charge. Woot. One of the librarians that was packing up her stuff to go home was heard saying "I know what you'll be doing tonight". It was very funny the way she said it.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Gronk. Woke up from nap. Throat feels better. Might be the metric shitton of raw garlic I swished it with in a broth medium.
I think I'll feel decent enough to fake it thru an interview tomorrow, provided I get to come home and collapse into bed after. Interview's at noon, I have an outfit all picked out, and I am going to lay in bed and imbibe hot tea and a thick book and sleep some more.
I think I will spend the next 46 minutes looking at sexual assault stats for the US and KC area, and examining the website closely.
