Not everyone would do that.
Really? I mean, now that you say it, I guess yeah, I'm sure there are people who wouldn't. But it never occurred to me not to.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Trudy, that was a really shitty comment to make. If you have issues with something that went down six or seven years ago, the best thing to do is keep quiet or talk directly, not in a public forum, to whomever your issue is with.
I stand with javachik.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Maybe she did not mean it like that. She has not been back in bitches then, maybe she will explain when she returns. And if she did not mean it as it is being taken that would explain why it would not occur to her return to explain further. At any rate I hope we can wait until returns and explains before building up too much anger.

On reread, a couple of things I missed:
Now, the part where Insurance!Agent told me about my co-worker's medical claim, and named her? Pretty sure that IS a big ol' violation of HIPAA.
Yes, it absolutely is. There is no way it isn't. Signed, had HIPAA training every year
I need to hang out in bars more. In New Orleans. When I'm not pregnant.
We can definitely make that happen! It was a small bar, I will note - maybe 20 people in there, max.
You go, beth. That is seriously impressive.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
OMFG, Tep, that is crazy-insane-stupid. I hope you get him fired, and that's never anything I say lightly.
bonny, I know you'll miss your pup, but he'll be ok, and so will you, m'dear,
ION: M. got here today!! Woo! Poor little guy got up at 4 am to get on the flight, and we went to breakfast, Target and Hy-Vee.
He's 9 now, and I can TOTALLY see the prepubescent attitude starting to flare up, but he's just testing boundaries, and I actually had a pretty good convo with his mom about it, and we seem to be on the same page about backing each other up when he tried to play the "I can't do this/I always do this" card.
But it's all normal stuff, and he's SO EXCITED to be here. Dan and I took turns scratching his back and reading a Susan Cooper book to him, and he is zonked.
I'm wiped, too, as I was up working on shit til 5:30am and got up at 8am.

“Not dead yet!”
Aw, Erin, it's so cool to see you excited about M's arrival.
Truly, you are teh bomb.

That's huge progress!! And so key, too. Have fun with M!

Yay for M, and yay for Susan Cooper books!
I just disabled my OKC account again. No more skeevy messages with poor spelling, at least I hope for a while!

I DO love him. It's not that total mom-love, you know; we don't see each other too often, but it's love and protectiveness and a desire to see him be happy and learn and be a good person.
I had a question I was going to ask, but then I forgot.
So. Tired.

Erin, the answer is 42.
