Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

[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.

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.

When I'm coming down with something, I'll take capsules of ginger, cayenne, and cinnamon. The first day, I will take one of each, but then I find that a couple capsules of one kind a day, in turn, minimizes the pain of capsaicin exiting my system, and gives me some relief.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I do want to stick up for Dallas though, because I don't think you have really had time to explore the city. It was many years before I learned about all the cool stuff here. I'm still learning more everyday. And I think we have a pretty strong arts community here.
The arts community here really impresses me. It will be missed. And the city of D is fine. I'm not fleeing because of D.

Omnis, ping me and I'll email you a decision making strategy that has been helpful for me, if you are interested. Not job specific.
Can't get to e-mail for awhile. Smonster, feel free to send to profile addy.

I just got an email that I got another phone interview. I'm going to look into this interview coach thing.
Hil, That is GREAT! You will be fabulous!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Hil, I know you're feeling frustrated, and you probably will hate to hear this...but this is a pretty normal ratio of rejections for an academic position. It totally sucks ass. and is annoying.

I was thinking about Plei much of the night last night. (Don't think ur dirty thoughts, geez!) I got a turquoise nail polish and my fingernails are a BRIGHT COLOR for the first time in a couple of years. It's fun!

I have to go to what may be a 4 hours orientation for my F2F adjunct position that starts next week tonight, from 6 pm to (maybe) 10:30. Ugh.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Oh, I didn't think you were running away from Dallas, just that it doesn't have the same appeal yet as So Cal does/did.

And now that I have praised Dallas, GOD OUR CITY COUNCIL IS FULL OF THE MOST FUCKTARDED IDIOTS ON THE PLANET! HOW THESE PEOPLE DON'T KEEL OVER FROM BEING TOO STUPID TO BREATHE, I HAVE NO IDEA!!

People want (and in some cases) have already started community gardens. You would think someone had suggested the neighborhoods start manufacturing and selling crack. [link]

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Joe is on his way up to Em's school to get her. She is flipping out like a mammal over somebody's teddy bear having a headband when hers doesn't. It must be *REALLY* bad for Mrs. P to call us to come get her.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, headbands are upsetting. Settle down, missy!

(Don't think ur dirty thoughts, geez!)

Don't tell me what to do!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Health~ma to Anne's mom.

Hil, yes, check with your University's career services offices. I was able to do a practice interview and watch it with a coach, and that was in 1998.

Funny you should ask. It was YOU!

AHAHAHA. Whoops.

There was snogging.

...not sure what to say here. Please apologize to your DH? You're welcome? See you tonight?

omnis, insent to profile addy!

God, it's so nice outside that I totally don't want to be in the office.

I read the blog, DJ. WTF? Sell the produce twice a year? Talk about being dissociated from the food-growing process... We have several community gardens in our area, including a couple on University land.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

G just threw an epic fit when his mommy left, probably made worse by the fact that he is sick. His poor mom left crying, but now we're chilling out on the couch and watching Yogi Bear.
