I know for certain I've worked at least 90 days in a row, but I'm pretty certain if I did some checking I'd find that is a very conservative number.
Oh, look at the pretties!

[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 had one year when I was going to Marquette and working two jobs when the only day I had completely off was Christmas. I'm glad I didn't know that going into the year or I'd have shot myself. By the end of it, I was less discerning about who I wanted to shoot.

Oh yeah. Grad school I'm pretty sure I worked most of a year straight. When school was in session I averaged 100 hour weeks.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
But when you're doing what you love you only want to shoot to maim.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
you may love what you are doing, but there are plenty of times there are assholes who make it not fun. And in theater world, the 'hurry up and wait' can get old real quick. So, shoot to kill does come to mind at times.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I wish I could say that.
In my defence, there's a good reason I can't usually work more than a few days in a row. (When I was healthier I regularly did eighty hour weeks. It's almost like there's a connection...!)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My hillbilly kinfolk all just screamed in terror, though they don't know why: I am eating gluten-free biscuits and vegetarian "sausage" gravy.
Verdict: pretty damn good. (Well, I've been making the veg. gravy for years now, thanks to living with a vegetarian. The GF biscuits are a new attempt, and turned out pretty well. Kinda dry, but when you drown them in faux-sage gravy, that doesn't matter so much.)

Eh. Only if you've got a pre-existing rare genetic condition you never knew about.
ETA: Yup, some gluten-free stuff isn't bad. I eat a lot of lower-gluten stuff, too. Rye and spelt make good bread.
