My work now differentiates between "scheduled" vacation or sick leave and "unscheduled." Scheduled has to be approved by your supervisor 3 days in advance. Too many unscheduled of either kind in one month and you can get in trouble. So goes the theory, anyway.
Oh, I'm gonna go to the special hell.

[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.

I remember my last job, where I was *in the hospital* and took about a week of sick days. Boss was even nice enough to visit. And the corner office said I still needed some proof/note from the doctor. I gave them the hospital bill.

Trust my rage
I want to cry. I just spilled an entire glass of red wine on the white carpet. I had just settled down to watch a movie with the family and now Im cleaning carpet with no one else to blame but me.

Surely you tripped on a toy!
Woman! What is the point of having small children if you can't pin these things on them (if only in your heart)?
Invisible Frisco toy. I'd bet folding money on it.

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.
You know what's better than a chocolate donut? A chocolate donut with milk. Especially if it's the first non-chicken soup and crackers solid food one's had after being sick.

MY SISTER IS ENGAGED!
We are so excited. (And also want everyone to go out and buy/rent Murder Party to support the happy couple).
