That's excellent me news! Thank dog it wasn't JGL. I wouldn't have been able to cope.
smonster, I hope it's absolutely nothing.
I don't really have a security blanket... unless you count Mr. Pointy.

[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.

ita, we may have to work out an East Coast/West Coast JGL custody arrangement. Just to be fair to both, er, coasts.

Our wings are not tired.
Man. I've been keeping up with everyone by reading Natter/Spike's but don't have much time to post, but can't believe all of the bad news going around. I am so very sorry.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I can say now what the news is. My boss is trying to get me off contract and on here permanently.
YAY DJ
Also funny that no one guessed that.
I guessed it! Just didn't want to jinx it, you know.
Sister ~ma, smonster.

Sharing the JGL...Hmm. I guess it's good game theory to go with that option, rather than all or nothing.
It just...it just...mmrowwr.

We just won't tell you then.
I figured that even if some people guessed, they just weren't saying. Which I do appreciate.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
YAY DJ! That would be awesome.
I've been mostly fine all day, but I'm starting to get a little bit angry and resentful. I mean, a year ago the agency was GROWING! Rah rah! Funding was up! New projects! HOORAY! Let's hire SIX NEW PEOPLE!!
And then today, I (and 4 others) lose my job cause they've run out of money. I know that in the world of non-profit funding a year is a long time and it's easy to lose that much money and I know that for the health of the agency they needed to do something, but honestly? I would have worked part time for free just to keep my benefits. I have three people who are all on maintenace meds. I have 6 weeks to try to get them all filled for three months. Luckily, they are all generics and will be pretty cheap without insurance, but fuck I'm starting to get worried.
Oh hello, anxiety! How are you today?? I was wondering when you'd show up. Please don't make me passout in the freaking library.
