That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

[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.

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

I have a very important announcement.

Did we know about this? [link]

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

sumi, my memory is bad -- what did the 'sode entail?

Well, it was like having bits of me "asleep" - but at the pins and needles stage. (My doctor sent me for a CT scan and they didn't find anything.)

Hmmm. It's good that the CT scan didn't find anything, but that's still a weird symptom. My fingers are crossed that it continues to just be nothing.

Art Crawl!!!

My doctor's office called and they want me on 325 mg of aspirin - or rather they wanted to make sure that was the dosage I was taking. (But it's not - previously, I had been told to take "low dose" aspirin and the stuff I've been getting is about 80 mgs of aspirin. So, I guess I'll be stopping off at Walgreen's and picking up more aspirin.

Bright side? All the labs I had done last Saturday (Halloween) came back normal.

Job ~ma for Matt, beth.

'sode ~ma, sumi. May they figure it out, fast.

Meanwhile, I hate people. Not you people. Those people. You know who I mean.

Job~ma for Matt.

Wait? One of us is normal? how did that happen? (Sumi, glad the test came back good, sad it doesn't explain the episode).

Sparky, you ok over there?

So, a semi-rhetorical question. If the installation company turns over drawings that as stamped "As Built", but they aren't "as built", can they be called "as built"? Or did they just add that stamp to the old drawings? And yes, there is a LOT of grumbling in that question.

If they aren't "as built" and that's one of their contracted deliverables then they shouldn't be getting their final payment yet.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Lots of ~ma, sumi.

I am stressed out again, and sick of this. I emailed another professor to ask if he'd write me a letter of recommendation, and he said he doesn't know my recent work well enough.

I agree. Too bad I am just the primary lessee and not the owner. If I was the owner, I would be crawling up the GenCon and SoundCon collective assess on so many issues, they wouldn't know what hit them. Instead, I have to bug the owner of the building, who doesn't know what they have (or not have) half the time.
