The Girl is on the phone to agent! Offer has been accepted! Doing the dance of joy on crutches!
Now we have to run around finding solicitors, inspectors and proof of funds. And then start making building/decorating plans. Eek.
Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

[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.

Congrats to you and The Girl!

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.
Congratulations, Seska!

Congratulations, Seska! Congrats P-C! Go Shir-Good luck!
I am frustrated like a frustrated thing. I have a presentation today that I've been working on for several months, quickly followed by another presentation on another thing I've been working on since November. I'm understandably nervous and the details happening behind the scenes have been complex for so long, I don't know which way is up half the time. So I knew I was going to have a rough time sleeping. I didn't know DH was going to wake me up last night coming in from a night out, and then again coming to bed after playing Dragon Age a couple hours later that I couldn't get back to sleep after. Not his fault, really, more my stupid brain. I got a total of 3 hours, plus headache and gronk. I am mean. I'm now locked in my office trying to find a nice, calm spot.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I need help not being cranky at work today. My friend who worked here - and by friend I mean dude Joe has known for 30 years, me for 10+ years, and whom I put in to get the job here - got let go yesterday. No idea why - he didn't divulge to Joe much. But I find myself being unreasonably cranky at some of the PTB. I don't know the whole story, but I know my friend and I am truly confused and upset by it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The only thing I had that could reach it was a poster tube
I just had an image of Inspector Clouseau trying to knock a spider off the ceiling with a poster tube and the spider sliding down inside the tube and into his jacket sleeve.

Aims, I'm sorry for your friend. It sucks, no matter what happened.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Yay, Seska!!
Sox, awake and calm ~ma to you today.
Aims, I'm sorry for your friend and understand the crabby. You hurt for him and want to hurt someone back.
So, yesterday, due to unknown evil, my commute went from 50 min to 1.5 hours in the morning and from 55 min to 1.75 hours in the evening. I really really really hate construction season.
This morning, I left early and got to work in my usual 50 minutes. Of course, Monday, it won't be like that. Because of construction and other evils, I'll have to plan 1.5 hours to get to work regardless. I hate that. I am so not a morning person.
