I can't believe your friends don't see that.
I think they see, but somehow they need to explain how bad it is for him. I think it is just because they like him so much -- they want to protect him
Willow: It feels like we're going around in circles. Xander: Our circles are going around in circles. We got dizzy circles here.

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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I posted a post but I don't know if I put it in the wrong forum or it just disappeared. Basically it was ~ma for all who needs it and a declaration of love for all you Buffistas in the glowey box. I hate it when you hurt.
and now for some comic relief...
Holy boy I had a weird dream last night. Angel was my boyfriend (even though he's never been in my top 10 Whedon characters) and he gave me a cigar but it was the shape of a quahog and very moist and unstable. I had to keep puffing on it to keep it lit and I had to hold it with both hands to keep it from unravelling. Freud would have loved it; it was clearly not just a cigar.

not your mom's socks.
COB meeting didn't happen. Apparently 9am tomorrow is the new bat time.
Thank you everyone for the ~ma.

Yeah had weird dream last night. New program on TV - CSI: Unsolved Mysteries. Every week they make an episode with the cast of one of the many CSI shows in which they never figure out who the perp is.

Just answer the phone -- a recruiter for Matt. Loud slightly shrill voice. At least she instantly decided to call his cell.

Ack! The interview will come after a grammar test! I always failed grammar! Intransitive things, and diagramming, and what is that tense!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Connie, relax, darling. You are a smart person who knows how to use language. They won't want you to name parts of speech, but they WILL want to know you can differentiate they're/there/their and effect/affect. Also that you know where to put commas. And that you can spot sentence fragments. You might also want to brush up on commonly misspelled words [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
connie, I can promise you, in ten years of tech writing, it has never been important for me to be able to diagram a sentence.
Be prepared to rewrite something from passive voice to active voice. Scrappy's suggestions are also good. Make sure you can identify a comma splice.
