Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

She is wise.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My ankle hurts. I'm trying to decide whether I should rest it now, or go to the library and get some DVDs so that I won't go crazy while resting it later.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think this can be summed up as "People, ruining it for the rest of us."

So very much.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

We're watching Family Ties through Netflix, and teeny tiny Wil Wheaton is on. So. Freaking. Adorkable. I loved him SOOOOOO much.

I think that the motherfuckers at the Law School deauthorized my email account. I'm a little annoyed. Luckily, I'm paranoid, and there was a chance that they would need to do reconfigure my office when I was out, so I backed up all of my documents. But, I didn't back up my bookmarks or my email accounts. And I need to deauthorize my itunes. Grrr. Good think that the head of IT is a friend of mine.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Wait, already? That's nutso.

I ran errands. I got my glasses fixed (for $3, woo hoo! Thanks, Nora!) and bought Damp Rid for my car (it's already working, I can tell), and cat food (Petco is more expensive than Whole Foods for the stuff I buy, good to know) and a little bit of human food. Cash only. And I have some money left. And I did *not* buy either of the awesome holo polishes I saw at Walgreen's for just $2 each. And at the grocery store I made myself choose between pickles and ginger beer (I chose pickles). Go me with the list-following and the not overspending.

Hivemind, how should I discuss the layoff in a cover letter? Normally, I'd say something like "My current position is X", but should I just say "My position as X has been eliminated" Also, technically, I'm on administrative leave for the next 4 weeks, so it is still my current position.

I would keep it as "my current position" until the admin leave is up. After that, discuss it in general terms in the letter.

This. Especially given that some places are being shitty about hiring unemployed people.

And I think you should totally write a letter for Kat. I mean, how can it possibly be legal for them to confiscate and shred her handicap placard if it is a DMV-issued placard (and not a university-issued one)?!? Much less can it be right.
