Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Beth, yay for new drug abd weight loss.

The one good thing about going off the steroids is the 10 lbs that just disappeared, and I don't lose weight easily.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

{{{Sox}}}, I'm so sorry about the rough day. No polar bears!

Calm~ma to sj and hooray to beth!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Polar bearing polar bears! I wish you much discernment~ma going forward, Sox.

Yay Beth!

sj, I hope you get some good answers.

Signed offer has been faxed back and resignation has been tendered. I wonder when the barfy feeling will go away? Let's hope before the 90-day probation period ends, anyway.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Congrats on doing what you want to be doing, smonster!

Congrats on the job, smonster!

Sox, I'm sorry to hear about the rough day and the migraine.

So, when I go to my mammogram & biopsy this afternoon, should I wear the cropped blazer with the skull applique, or should I wear my Motley Crue "Shout At The Devil" tee under a Victorianesque gothy jacket? Either option would be good emotional armor for me.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

smonster, I am super excited for you! And I hope the barfy feeling wears off before long. You're a brave lady, and I hope the job turns out to kick ass!

Sigh. I am having a Day. It started out very nicely, apart from not sleeping very well last night, but then I got reprimanded at work for coming in late (I always work all my hours, but have been shifting to a later and later start time; I thought nobody minded, but apparently I was wrong), and although it's a totally minor thing, it's making me feel all sulky. Then I spent a while looking at friends' pictures on FB (vacation in Alaska! Babies!) and thinking about how much I want to be on vacation, and/or have a baby. And not be at work.

Blah. I don't dislike my job, but I miss having a job I loved. Also, damn, my baby-wanting hormones have kicked into high gear lately.
