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 so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Thanks, amych! All of that is really a good sign, right? That doesn't normally happen on what's basically a cold call.

Can you tell I really don't want to take the other job with another company that's on the table?

edit: And I love you, mi hermana. I'm so glad N and A arrived without incident.

Maria, that's awesome! (And I may borrow that answer if a similar question comes up when I go to a career fair next week.)

Borrow away. I will take my royalty payments in hugs and cupcakes when I get to Seattle.

Whoo! And I hope that you get to visit soon.

ION, I exercised today, for the first time in a while. 30 minutes of brisk walking around the house and backyard. The Antibiotic Cellular Death Explosion (TM the Infamous BlueJay) did not like that. But I need to keep at it.

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

Maria, that's great! Your BS-fu is strong!

Poor Taz! May he come home soon, all better.

When Kato is famous, you'll have the Flaming Hell-Doggie photo to blackmail him with.

Argh. I believe I'm about to break down and make an appointment with a doctor. Maybe several doctors. It's not normal to be tired and listless all the time and in pain most of the time, even if I am a middle-aged peri-menopausal woman, is it? Oh, hell, I did this before, and got nowhere; I barely have the will to start over again with another succession of doctors, who are all almost certainly going to tell me I just need to lose weight. As if I hadn't noticed.

Go team Maria BS!

I'm sorry, Zenkitty. I'm not sure most doctors even listen to middle-aged women who need to lose weight.

Zen,

get in to see the doctor and at the very least, get a good blood work up done. Then you can go from there.

Ugh, Zen. I hope you find a doctor that not only listens, but can offer you some relief too.

Ginger, no, I don't think they do.
