[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, isn't that rush the best while it lasts? I got so much freaking cleaning done when I was on prednisone!

Thrive to spite them
I got the gig. I wasn't dressed up but I was the most dressed up person there. The woman who interviewed me was in jeans, a t shirt, and sneakers.
The gig is also a little different than the temp agency thought. I will be there tomorrow and Thursday 12-5 and then Friday, Monday, Tuesday 8-5. But they aren't sure how much they'll need me after that the woman I interviewed with said it may be "on call". But this is the first temp they've ever hired so maybe I'll make myself useful. The only reason they need one now is their receptionist is on vacation and her boss is going on a business trip so they brought me in.
But the receptionist is going on maternity leave at some point so they may need me then.
It looks like a really good place to work so I'm glad to at least temp there and get in the door.
They have a "wellness" staff that's just there for the wellness of the employees. They have a gym. With an indoor tennis court. And regular fitness classes throughout the day. Plus a New Mother's Room, Bike Closet, Coat Closet.

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

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

It's ... not going to. At all. Right now I'm going to stick my head in the sand and do my best to ignore it.

Darlingest Daughter -
In fact, that is not your vagina that we saw when you accidentally pulled off your underwear when you pulled off your pants.
Furthermore, singing "Vagina, bajango, va-jay-jay!" is making your father's face turn red with equal parts embarassment and holding in the laughter.
All my love -
Mommy
