I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

I missed it myself.

Good luck, hon! I know you'll rock it.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

yay for return to the west coast o_a!

my sister is turning 14 next week. I just got her a $25 itunes gift card. That's reasonable and appropriate, right?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

announced that she's getting married Friday instead of after her fiance gets out of the Army after a tour

Hello.

there's certainly practical reasons to do it before he leaves, morbid as that is.

::nods::

Early military marriages can't be easy though.

In our case, better than the alternative. And we made it work--ups, downs, and all.

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

I'm THE finalist. No job offer yet. Last step is they call references. They have to call current employer. I had a hold on that in my app. If I didn't release the do not call, no job offer. I finally released that hold, which was big mental decision that, while not perfect, it's a good move. HR called one of my refs today, she called me to give me the juicy details. Kinda funny.

Once refs are verified, then it hits the final stage, which is a formal offer. Then the negotiations begin. As long as that salary amount is on the upper level, then I will take it. If they dick around, I stay with perfectly fine current job.

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.

Harvey's crying. I have him locked up in the bathroom to collect a sample for UA. He has produced a small amount, but it is not enough. Please, baby boy, just pee for mommy.

I'm sorry. I thought I had missed that you had properly accepted the job, because I was so tired yesterday. Today I am so tired that I tried to dispose of an empty hot cocoa package by putting it in the big fruit bowl on our kitchen counter.

Sorry. I thought it was all but a done deal. I hope the offer is good.

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

I've got a phone interview sometime today. They asked me if I was available between 8 and 12, and I said yes, and that between 10 and 12 would be better than between 8 and 10. I expected to get an email back telling me that they'd call me at some specific time. But, no. I emailed to ask if there was a specific time, or just some time in that interval, and no response. I also wasn't sure which phone number I had put on the application, so I sent them the one that they should use for the interview. My other phone interview asked for the number.
