[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.

Dude, what part of "voluntary" do you not understand. "Contractual next year"? That's next year. This year? Still voluntary, and I informed you weeks ago of my inability to go.

It would be interesting to see the wording of a contract that required more hours in a week than an employee is paid for.

So sorry about the job situation Pix.

Sorry about Nashville too.

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

I haven't expressed my horror and sympathy for Nashville and the folks who are dealing with the flooding first hand, or who have friends and family there. Restored utilities and normality wished to everybody, as swiftly as possible.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Gah, Kristin, I'm sending lots of new-and-awesome-job-ma your way.

ION, earlier today I wrote "PC" (no quotes) on my hand, obviously because I needed to remember something. Only now I can't remember what "PC" stands for. It's not Polter-Cow, because I would have hyphenated it, even on my hand. It's not computer-related. And beyond that, I got nothing.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Oof, Kristin, that is a completely ridiculous and supremely frustrating situation. I'm so sorry you have to deal with that bullshit!

And thanks for all the hugs, everyone. I just signed up to volunteer with a local relief org, which at least helps me feel like I'm doing something positive.

Weird that I've heard about the flooding in Nashville here and on facebook, but notreally on the media. Hrmph.

I have no perspective on it, and it's obviously all over the news here, so I don't know how bad it is in comparison to typical media-getting events. But it sure seems pretty awful from here.

I appreciate that.

Maybe you need to buy a new PC? You want to read some Patricia Cornwell? You have to remember to be politically correct?

I'm guessing Penal Colony, so this has something to do with Australia. Maybe you needed to remember something about an odd and poisonous animal.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Kate and Ginger, much coping and recovery ~ma going out to you and yours.

Sorella, fuck 'em. Don't get me started on employers right now. My feelings towards my own have not changed since Friday when I spewed in-thread. They do not deserve us.

I cannot brain today; seriously, whatever it meant is long gone from my last 2 neurons.
