No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

ChiKat, I think if they said yesterday, it would be ok to contact them today. Don't take my word for it, though. What do others think? Job~ma for you.

connie, I hope the next few days are not as bad as you think they are going to be. Get well soon.

Yay, Sparky and baby!

What a pain in the ass, Barb.

Go, Nora! Interview~ma for you.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Thanks for the ~ma, I think it went fine. It was a phone screen, so it was only about 15 minutes but I think I did pretty well, I definitely communicated what I wanted to.

Question: since it was only a 15 minute phone screen, is it too much to send a thank you note (interoffice, she'll get it tomorrow) or will an email do?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'd think an e-mail would do, but I don't think a thank you note would be bad if you really want to send one. When we were interviewing candidates, I usually only got an e-mail from the candidate afterward, and that was for more than a 15-minute phone screen!

The new nephew has been named Zachary. I can't wait to meet him.

(((Connie))) What an awful week. Feel better.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hey Sparky! ::waves northward::

I just went out and cold-solicited door prizes for a work event I'm organizing! Go me! Now off to do the dreaded reviews. Argh.

Nora, is this another job at the school, or someplace else?

At the very least I have a reason to saunter (stagger) around work with my cool cobalt-glass-ball-and-snakes-and-skull-headed cane. Hubby keeps promising to take two inches off the end so it's the proper length, but oh well.

Canes can also be used for a judicious thwapping, when necessary. Being too long is a problem for walking, but it does give you a little extra reach.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The new nephew has been named Zachary. I can't wait to meet him.

I like this name. It has a certain breeziness to it.
