Thrive to spite them

Rose is Sadie's mother.

I was thinking since there was contention between Rose Tyler and Sarah Jane (well a bit) and some issues that Martha had with the memory of Rose maybe re-naming Sadie either Martha or Sarah Jane wouldn't quite work.

But right now I only have Rose so that's all I'll worry about.

I'm trying to vacuum and clean up cat hair and generally get my place looking decent for both Rose and the delivery people.

You could name Sadie Jackie and then really confuse things.

Daniel, that is hysterical.

Sean, I am so sorry for not being able to eat. I have been in situations like that I get cranky mccrankerpants. Now i usually at least carry luna bars or something. At least since I am at a university, I can send less skilled students to get me food, now. I used to work at an opera theatre where everyone was union except costumes, and they all got breaks. they would just stop and we had to keep working. It was very disheartening.

I try to remember this when I am leading now-- people need to eat and need breaks! Of course, this usually means that I work through my break to keep up. Somehow in theatre there is a life or death energy to things that is higher than any field I have worked on, including healthcare. I try to keep in my mind that no one is actually going to die if I don't finish and alteration before the meal break is over.

Oh, and Rose is a cutie patootie! I second the "name sadie jackie" idea, if you get her.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

OMG.

I don't do T-shirts very often - mostly just the gym - but I would totally wear the 'And then Buffy staked Edward. The end.' T-shirt.

(askye, Rose looks lovely! If you decided to get Sadie, you could call her Jenny, after The Doctor's Daughter.)

Oh and Sean don't ask whether they are satisified. If they are not, asking them won't change it. If they are, asking will make them wonder if they should not be. But again the lack of food and breaks is not reasonable. Not only is it illegal, but people working long hours need breaks worse than people working short hours.

I always thought the break issue was why so many theatre people smoked. It is less true now, I hope, but there were times when sneaking out for a cigarette was much more acceptable than leaving for dinner. I pretty muh started smoking when everyone else went out for a "smoke break"

Typo must have been listening into every career counseling session I've ever done. This is really good advice. It's better to never suggest that the boss might consider you in a negative light. If they do, they do. If they don't, don't give them any ideas.
