I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

[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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yay Erin!!!

DJ, what wonderful things. Would it be uncouth to print them out and attach with applications?

Oh not at all. They are mos def going in the portfolio. HK already has some people interested. I had to send her a blurb for current job to add to my resume. Our project manager should have retooled mine last night, so I can put it out to some other people.

This lay off has been so untraumatic and smooth I don't even know what to think.

And in other "Can my week get any better!?!" news. One of my best friends is home from Australia for a while!

YAY ERIN!!!!!!!

Dear Cousin,

Yes, you are correct, and as always the smartypants one. I am currently drafting a tersely worded essay on the topic of "Have fun without me SUCKAS".

Love, Me

Laura - passes you coffee and a flaming cow.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Wonderful news, Erin! (But boo stupid pissy guy at the school district, and I hope that's the last you need to see of him.)

Happy birthday, Hil!

The margin for a recount is .5% and it's currently at .29% -- otoh, the remaining precincts are Begich-friendly enough that he could conceivably get past the recount margin before they're done.

Is the recount margin the same everywhere, or different for different states? In Minnesota the vote is even narrower--1.12 million votes for both candidates with only 260 separating them.
