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.

Much ~ma for your MiL, Burrell.

I'm trying to wake up. Leaving for the job interview in more than an hour, but I woke up too early (without an alarm! That's somewhat scary).

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Ma to your MiL, Burrell. I hope it goes even easier than expected, with good outcomes, and not too stressful waiting.

Yay for the good birthday party.

I joined fb for work-related purposes, so expected the friending of many unknowns. It was really weird to have my extended family suddenly discover me and start friending me. Cousins I haven't seen since I was 12! My mom's best friend when I was 9! It's... weird. Kind of nice, though. I thought I was persona non grata with everyone, and you know, I'm not sure why I thought that.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Thanks all y'all. I hear the buffista vibes are very powerful.

Work, damn coffee, work.

Edit to avoid double posting: going out to that interview. Wish me luck!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I know, right? I *do* have a ministry page but we started it only recently, and I can`t seem to divert them. It`s just weird. I think they would still stalk us without the work, because of our connections, but I wouldn`t feel obligated to friend them I just think I should use fb less.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

All good thoughts to your MIL and her son, and his family, Burrell.

Interview's done. Was pretty OK, I guess. I'll have answers in a few days time, but now I'm kind of nervous.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

You did great! And tons of theybetterhireyou~ma. And it's not for selfish reasons at all!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Thanks, sweetie. This whole process just makes me feel too self conscious to every possible flaw, not necessarily with me but also in future jobs.

I think I'm gonna watch some Buffy to feel better about myself.

Also, I think I proved myself to be an information manager. I answered another ad. That ad didn't have an email/contact method on. 2 minutes on the clock of googling the name and the organization by guessing possible email address gave me what I looked for.

Getting the emails of organizations is sometimes way too easy.

Edit: and wish me luck with a professor of a class I really want to take. BA advisor approved, to my surprise.

And, wow. Something's good going on with the job~ma of Buffistas. Got some kind of an offer I'd like to take, but nothing's official. I'd love ~ma to that (and my God, I can't wait to share the details of the original address to me if that will happen). I thank you so much for your ~mas so far.

Edit 2: what do you think is best? I want to wait and meet the professor of the class I want to take in person, but her students' hour is on Wed., and we begin studying on Sunday. Should I email her immediately?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Wow, Shir, that was fast! omnis is clearly the go-to guy for theybetterhireyou~ma. (Though the fact that you're articulate and smart and capable and extremely fun and interesting probably didn't hurt either.)

Lots and lots of ~ma to your MIL, Burrell, and to your whole family, and to the surgeons caring for her.

Ugh. I'm still so, so tired; I should have taken half an Ambien when I had the chance, with the first wake-up at 1:00. But I convinced myself to try to fall asleep again on my own, which I did...for an hour. Then awake again at 2:30, 4:30 and now, at which point I gave up.
