I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

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.

Oh, My. Fucking. GOD. The exact job with the exact NP that I've been longing for just got posted on CL.

AWESOME! You know anyone there still?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

My resume just got sent last week to the ED and the head of RTNO. Who, oddly, responded to my former co-worker that I looked like I'd be an asset, that they didn't have anything right now, but she'd call me this week. Maybe they got the go ahead suddenly?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My mom made the same point as Kate did - that my current last name is *mine* even if it's not the one I was born with.

I agree with this, but if the father's family wants to be involved, it might make them happy to use that name as a middle name.

Yay, smonster and tons of job~ma!

welcome back, Plei-kitty the eldest!

And of course my router has chosen this moment to go all kerflooey, and is being obstinate. Anyway, I'm not applying tonight, on this little sleep. I may print and highlight, but I think I need to be better rested for the brainpower this will require. Oh, and I know a guy in the mill shop, too, but I don't know that he'd had any advice or pull. Might call him, though.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Job~ma, smonster, that sounds perfect!

It's fine for me, sj, as far as I can tell.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

ideal-job~ma, smonster!

I talked to my temp coach today, about my interview on Thursday, and while she didn't have time to do a practice interview she did make me feel better about my experience. She reminded me how much of my temp work has been customer service and that one client has a standing order for me anytime they have extra work and I'm free.

So, that helps me mentally prepare. And I'm making notes about their website info and stuff and generally following all of the Buffista advice.

Cross your fingers!
