Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

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.

“Not dead yet!”

I'd think that if you can provide proof of the check being written and sent to an address she provided that was established as not valid, it would provide some leverage on your part.

ETA: Of course, I say this with the blind faith that the righteous and the Buffista will prevail.

Compassionately intolerant

When will you be done? I am going to be in and out of focus, and should be in the office most of the day. Again, call me and if I miss you, I'll get back to you sharpish.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Don't know, exactly. The interview starts at 11:30 am your time, and I suspect it will last at least an hour or two given that we're doing a job evaluation as part of it. I will call you after.

eta aren't pants supposed to look *better* after you iron them? ::sigh::

le_n, I am happy to announce that the rhubarb crumble is ::kisses fingertips:: Mwah! I poured a little half and half (in lieu of not having any ice cream) over it and it is tasty.

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

Yeah, Nora, if she provided an incorrect address, that isn't your fault. Man, crazy tenants! I've been thinking of buying the duplex next to me, but the possibility of crazy tenants makes me quiver with dread.

Sail! Babe, when the story contains "I watched a tornado go by", don't open with "so, this crumble I'm making..." Talk about burying the lede! I almost skimmed past it ("food, okay...") then I saw "tornado" and went "wait, what?" Glad you're okay and nothing bad happened!

But that's my specialty! I tell little stories that are of interest, not report the news. Now, if my car had been swept up and deposited on the top of the state capitol then, yeah, I probably would have led with "My car got stuck on the top of the capitol!!"

For me, I'm glad the story wound up being about crumble.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Jeepers, Sail! Stay safe.

Sorry the ex-tenant is still a PITA, Nora.

Zen, if you are onsite (renting the other half of the duplex) it's probably easier to manage. I've rented from a landlord that occupied the other half of a shotgun double, and it was a pretty nice arrangement for both of us.

You'd have said, "I was baking some brownies, and trying this new recipe, and then my car was swept away and deposited upon the Capitol. But a passing giant ape got it down for me, and he really appreciated the brownies. I should make more!"

Exactly, when it all shook out it was about the crunchy, chewy yumminess that is crumble.

eta: Hahaha! Yes, that is exactly what I would have written. If I survive it, is it really worth scaring the crap out of everyone to say OMGTORNADOSWOOPEDRIGHTMEOMG. Oh, by the way, I'm fine?
