Yay Drew!
Sorry about the job news, Stephanie. May something better come along right now.
Deena!
... other than that, I've got nothing. Today is apparently a bad brain chemistry day.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay Drew!
Sorry about the job Stephanie, that would have been pretty nice if it had worked out.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hee.
We once had a rediculously contentious multi-party, multi-nation case where the one other local counsel refused service of a notice of deposition because it hadn't come, per Hague Conventions requirements, with funds to cover transportation.
We looked up the fees to cover fifteen blocks of travel, wrote a veddy veddy wordy and formal letter of apology, taped two subway tokens to it, and sent the bitch back.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
The "off" part is just as important as the "on" part.
It really is. Electrician came right by and fixed it, though, which was good. I am now equipped to sit in the dark.
I hope they come back to you with a good offer, smonster.
Yay for home-going, ND!

I'm glad you're on your way home, Drew.
And that sucks, Stephanie. I hope you find something better, closer, soon.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
BOO on those who didn't hire Stephanie!!
Yay Drew going home!!
Thanks for the brassiere suggestions. I'm going to go get measured at Macy's on Thursday and go from there. That's where I got my 2 OTBs before. Hopefully they can accomodate the girls.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Boo! Boo! Rubbish! Filth! Slime! Muck! Boo! Boo! to the people who didn't hire Stepanie!!
So glad Drew is on his way home. As I should be as well. Of course, I'm just leaving work, not the hospital.

But I am glad for Drew that he's heading home. yay!

Stephanie, I'm sorry. I'm keeping you and your family in my thoughts every now and then. Also continued~ma to amyth and family.
Drew, these are excellent news! Yay recovery at home!
smonster, easy talk with boss~ma.
Now, I'd normally wouldn't post this late, but a dear, dear, uber-dear friends of mine had their first child born today - a baby girl. I'm psyched for them. Just went off the line with the proud father. He couldn't stop talking for the first 5 minutes about the new washing machine they just got, before I even had the chance to ask how his wife is doing (their washing machine got broken recently, the new one arrived today and he's home from the hospital taking care of the laundry). When I asked for pictures of the new human being, he told me that everyone took pictures of her - but the only picture he took was of "amusing medical poster that was in the hall". I do love my geek friends and their ways of being overly excited, though not sure how to show it. He's also apparently somewhat disappointed that at her 6th hour on earth, his girl didn't understand that his sleeve isn't the place to look for milk.
Welcome to the world, little thing. You've got an excellent family and an excellent start.
I can't wait until I'll get to see them next week.
