Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OMG, they're actually calling my references! I filled the last spot with a guy here at work, who I just remembered offered a while back.
DUDE. I've been working here since October. I'm referred. I should totally have put Buffistas in the other two spots. I don't even know if the other numbers work anymore. I haven't spoken to those guys in forever.
Der.
Nerve wracking.

Peace and strength to your friend and fiance, sj.
Thanks for all the support. I do like teens a lot. I enjoy watching them discover themselves. They are funny and enthusiastic, and enlivening to be around. For me parenting became easier as communication became easier. It is just horribly frustrating to watch helplessly as they make bad choices. I know we all have to make our own mistakes to learn and grow, but the watching part sucks.
I may challenge him to a card game later. He will beat me soundly because he actually remembers cards, but it will open an opportunity to communicate.
It really does help to be able to vent here. Hugs y'all.

Wow, they are calling references 9 months after you were hired! That is really odd.

I totally meant to post that in Natter. Yeah, they're doing the background check for switching to perm. You'd think I was referred just by having been endorsed by my boss and the CIO after all this time here, no?
But they're serious.
Hard core.

Ah, that makes more sense. If the original references are not available totally use us. I give good reference.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Fuck cancer, indeed. I'm so sorry, sj.
And I'm thinking good thoughts for the beneficent magic of a game of cards, Laura.
Stabbity stabbity splorch: Hec and I have been keeping very close and diligent tabs on our bank accounts this month, trying to be responsible and attentive and not overdrawn (and also feed our children), and in pursuit of such have been logging on and moving funds around as needed. Which apparently triggered two "excessive transaction" fees of $10 each in the last 24 hours. For once we can spare the $20, but it seriously chaps my ass that we have to.

Banks have caused me more stress than even teens. Evil.

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.
JZ, excessive transactions fees? WTF?

Well, you know, I guess it's really expensive for them to run a website, and if you do more than 10 things online per month you run the risk of making the servers exploderate, which would probably cost them at least $10.
I mean, it's only Wells Fargo; it's not like they can afford something spiffy and ita-designed. I guess our overenthusiastic balance-adjusting was throwing their hamsters off the spinny wheels, or caused them to have to run to the hardware store for another roll of duct tape.
