Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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 never did actually clarify what it was the printer said when they admitted it was their fault, did I? They had said on Thursday that THEY hadn't changed any of their procedures (oh, no, of course not). They forgot to mention they changed equipment. Which they eventually realized affected the settings.
Suck it, printing company. (To be fair, they admitted fault and are reprinting the issue and mailing to the subscribers. Now, I don't know why Big!Boss is insisting that the company reprint and mail the journal just because some checkboxes in some ads got overprinted. I think that's petty, actually. Though I *would* have asked that they refund us some or all of their production charges on the issue with the problems. But I will never pretend to understand why Big!Boss does the things he does. I think he's risking losing goodwill of our printer over some petty shit, but whatever. It's his company.)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you also think the company would be better off with a new printer, yes? Maybe BB has decided to wage a guerrilla campaign of harrassment until the printer cancels the contract of their own accord.
wait, I thought that the web people were ass, not the printer. Or both?
{{{{Bartleby&bonny}}}} all my veterinary~ma are belong to you.

Teppy, I'm shaking my head over the whole thing. I think you deserve more than a cookie - maybe some beer or a margarita or something, too.
Oh, bonny. So much ~ma to Bartleby, and calm and coping and wisdom to you and the good new vet.
The Web people can die in a fire. The printer, until now, had always been a joy to work with. And, given that this is their first big glitch in many years, and they're making it right, I'm not making voodoo dolls just yet.
Thank you for the lovely surprise in the post today. It was sweet of you to think of me and it made me smile in the midst of my worry.
Oh, yay! I think it kinda got caught out in the rain, waiting for the post -- I didn't know it was supposed to POUR that day!
I'm trying really hard to send the postcards from my calendar randomly to people this year, just to do something nice and random.
If anyone wants a random postcard from me this year, drop me your email addy. I have some earmarked for certain peeps (Bonny's had doggies) but they are cute postcards and I am having fun writing stuff.
Blah blah blah mememe.
smonster, you still around?
I just saw you tagged in a facebook photo along with one of my old friends (initials CSH). Small world!
(I just saw her this weekend, actually, at her brother's engagement party.)
{{bonny & B-boy}} Insent, bonny.
I had yesterday off as a random University holiday, and used part of the day to check on pre-school applications. K is going to start in August at one of our top choices and I cannot tell you how huge this is - we'll save over 1K a month in expenses, I can go to yoga again, and the DH and I no longer have to stagger our working hours.
She's going to be one of only two children admitted that didn't already have a sibling at the school, and it absolutely wouldn't have happened if I hadn't gone in yesterday.
