bonny, peace and love to you and yours.
Tep, I'm sorry about your uncle.
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

[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.

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?

Ann, that's a ferret.
All sympathies, bonny.

Teppy, I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle.
bonny, I'm so sorry. Peace to you and your family.

omnis, it could be that your co-worker is just feeling a bit conflicted about the idea of getting involved with someone in general. For me, when there is interest shown by another party, it can throw me into a sort of panic mode. In short, her mixed signals may be more about her than about you.
Yes, this, or she may want to stay in contact and be friends with you but is getting the sense that you want to date and she doesn't.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, bonny, you're having such a tough time. I'm so glad you and Niki have had each other in your lives. Peaceful passing~ma to her, and peace to you.
I think the message is getting through. But dang, seriously,the talking never stops with three of them. They're gone to lunch right now and it's blissfully peaceful. Pretty sure there's some ADHD in the mix, too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Peace and strength to you, bonny, and easy passing to Niki.
Teppy, sorry about your uncle. (Okay, that's three, universe. Stop it now.)
The only one I didn't was Midol or Pamprin because I took a while to realize that I could find pamabrom in some OTC diuretics. And that really helps menstrual backaches for me.
Wait, what? What is this pamabrom? I have horrendous cycle-related backaches, to the point I can hardly stand up. OTC painkillers don't touch it.
But dang, seriously,the talking never stops with three of them.
It's three people specifically doing this? Separate them.

Not that easy right now. Not enough work, and frequently I need talk to all of them at once.

I swear, most daytime TV advertising can be boiled down to "Screw you, loser. You suck. Buy our product. It won't make you not a loser, but it's a step in the right direction." Unless, of course, it is a product aimed at retirees, in which case the message seems to be "Screw you, loser. You're DYING."
My personal favorite right now is the one for a pill for gout, which features a guy walking around carrying a GIANT BOTTLE OF URIC ACID with him everywhere he goes. Even after he starts taking the pill, the bottle shrinks, and fits into his satchel, but he still carries it with him everywhere he goes.
Screw you, loser. You're dying.

That commercial irritates me. I yell at the screen. WHY does he have high uric acid? Why don't they try to fix the problem instead of the symptom?

The two that just drive me 'round the bend are a) a commercial for denture adhesive (they're all like this, really), featuring people PROMINENTLY CHEWING WITH THEIR ENORMOUS TEETH! STOP MAKING ME THINK ABOUT YOUR ENORMOUS TEETH! and b) a commercial for nasal sinuplasty (opening your nasal passages with a balloon) featuring people who can somehow act with their NOSES! STOP MAKING ME THINK ABOUT YOUR NOSE!
