Spidra, did I misunderstand? I thought you were joining our urban family (no family drama guaranteed) Thanksgiving tomorrow.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

[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.

Our wings are not tired
I could invite my family. Then we would have some family drama.

Crap. I need to make a few calls then.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The PixDesigns are making me laugh very hard.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Thanks very much. I really appreciate you inviting me! I RSVP'd yes and will be there for the day. I'll be returning home at night to catch whatever's left of the home crew.
It's not that I'm a T-day orphan. It's that I like my younger brother and he didn't even invite me to this T-day he's holding, while he invited my eldest brother. So I have to think that he doesn't want me there. Which means while I like him, he doesn't really like me (or his wife doesn't...).

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Whew. I'm relieved. I'm very glad that for at least a few hours you will be surrounded by people who are not going to make you crazy (except in a fun way). It still sucks about your collection of relatives. But it's good to know you will get to really have fun.
Yay, PixDesigns urban family feast!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Okay, hivemind. I met with this woman on Monday morning, and she said she would type up a job offer. I emailed her later that day reiterating how excited I am, acknowledging how busy she is, asking when I might expect to hear something, and asking if there was anything I could do to facilitate the process. I haven't gotten a response to that email, or an offer. Now, she was at a conference last week, and it's a holiday week, and she is superbusy. Is Monday too soon to check in, and any thoughts on whether I should call or just send another email? Keeping in mind that the job starts the first week of January.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So I have to think that he doesn't want me there.
I wouldn't presume that. You should talk to him. It is probably an unintended slight, where he simply presumed that you'd do it at your parents. The other brother might've specifically asked or begged to come, etc. Lots of reasons why it could've happened because of a lack of communication.

Maybe Tuesday? Give her Monday to get on top of things?
