lots of job~ma Jess.
Jilli, that's such bullshit.
I picked up Owen from school. Slight fever. We're powering through it with ice cream and Sonic the Hedgehog on the Wii.
Gunn: Well, how horrible is this thing? Lorne: I haven't read the Book of Revelations lately, but if I was searching for adjectives, I'd probably start there.

[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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Good luck / ~ma Jessica!

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Fever-go-away-quick~ma for Owen! (Wii and ice cream sounds amazing. I want that next time I'm sick.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Oooh, Wii therapy sounds even better than chocolate therapy right now.
Maybe I'll teach Dylan to play Boomblox tonight.

I think I'll go try making the Lemon Thyme Cornmeal Quick Bread recipe I got from Cooking Light. That should put me in a better mood.

A tech editing contract gig ... that pays about 2/3 of what I made ... as a contractor ON THE TEAM THAT I WAS LAID OFF FROM.
Considering that benefits amount to another 1/3 for full-time employees, it's really paying about half. Bastards.

What students will do for a thesis supervisor
“There are some people you just don’t want. If everybody in the school were a good supervisor, we wouldn’t have to do this. You’ve no idea how distressing it was to see people punching each other in the queue,” said the student.
My mind, it boggles.

That's just insulting. What a bunch of low-balling asshats.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Plus, if it's contracting, they're not paying bennies either or severance when the term is up.
