Cutiehead pug in a pack!
So my former employers have decided they don't want me to get a raise through the contracting firm. Or not much of one. Despite the fact that I'm losing quite a lot of leave, and getting shittier benefits.

Our wings are not tired.
Consuela, how utterly unfair and shitty.

Consuela, I wish them sharks in their pants. And then fire-ants.

I suspect it's the contracting officer forcing the issue. With luck I'll get a bit of a raise, but not enough of one to make up for everything I'm losing/have already lost.

Because books.
Aw, Sparky, poor K. Is she on antibiotics?
That sucks, Consuela. I'm sorry.

She's not on any antibiotics right now. I'll ask for a script to take with me this weekend, anyway. The plan at the moment is to pick up the DH at Dulles at 7 a.m. on Saturday and then keep going to my parents' house.

Consuela, that awful.
Had a nice swim and chat with a fellow daily-distancer. She does 3 miles over three hours (she's retired.) She was convinced I must do more than I do because of my speed, but no. I've not yet made it to 3 miles. That'd be like 1:42 for me. IF I could keep up my 2 mile pace. Anyway, always nice.
And then I deemed it nice enough out to walk the Loki. OH BOY did he like that! I think he's forgotten most of his nerves from last fall's incident. He's daring like he first was. He even made friends with one of my next door neighbors. He's so coy when he's introduced to someone he doesn't already know.
I'm SERIOUSLY loving this weather. Opened up downstairs for about an hour before decided it was getting too cool. Fresh air, yay!

My girl is still sick, feverish, and getting up at 2 a.m. for milk and at 4:30 a.m. for the day.
I missed this in the madness. Poor K. Poor mama. Do the docs have any clues?

Oh holy fuck, look what some moron just put on a friend of mine's very sweet facebook post about Lara Logan and those who rescued her:
I feel for her but she also didn't have to go back to the country and she was dressed inappropriately for the region. At least have some common sense if you going back into this kind of an element. Still, it shouldn't have happened.
