She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

[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.

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

Happy birthday, Ginger!

And go Vortex on the great job lead, too.

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

Happy birthday, Ginger! Woot, Barb! Go with the job lead, Vortex! Everybody happy!

Except me. OMG. I have a cold, work is exploding with the stupid, and the cats won't shut up. I want to drug myself with Benadryl and go back to bed.

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?

Happy birthday, Ginger!!!!

In terms of qualifying for unemployment, this may vary by state, but there's an important distinction between being fired with cause (i.e., stealing stuff) and being laid off (i.e., reorg, downsizing, "just not working out" etc). You only qualify for unemployment if you're laid off.

This. Illinois says you have to be "unemployed through no fault of your own." So if you quit or are fired with cause, no employment.

Happy Birthday, Ginger!!!

Woo Hoo for the good review, Barb!!! I hope she who will not be named chokes on it.

I picked up the marriage license today and a nice bottle of scotch as a wedding present for TCG. I'm getting married in 11 days! Yes, this is just sinking in now.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Exclamation points!

Punishingly Intricate

So exciting!!!

We did a huge 30 Day Out task list for our wedding last night (actually 34 days out today). SO much to do. But also a lot has been done so there's that! I have a fitting of a mock up of my dress this week. That will be fun! I still don't know what I'm doing about shoes for me though.

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

Happy birthday, Ginger!

sj, I'm so happy for you and TCG. And eager already to see the pictures.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Birthday Ginger!

What JZ said. For Lisah too!

Yes, I'm a big fan of them!

Yay, lisah! We're doing this simple elopement, and yet there is still so much to do. I need to have the announcements printed, compile everyone's addresses, and we still haven't finalized what we want in our ceremony. My dress still isn't finished being made, although at least there was a zipper in it at the last fitting.
