Yay for benign, Glam. Totally sugar family, too.
Xander: I do have Spaghetti-os. Set 'em on top of the dryer and you're a fluff cycle away from lukewarm goodness. Riley: I, uh, had dryer-food for lunch.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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 is great news, Glam! And your family is adorable.
What to wear to the interview? Black tights, black shoes that Pete had custom made for me long ago, black skirt with minimal ruffles (but with petticoat), pink high-collared blouse, and black jacket. But which black jacket? My lucky vintage Lagerfeld riding jacket? Or my black silk J. Peterman frock coat that I bustled the back of.

Huh, I need to paint my nails a plain dark color. Basic black or dark burgundy?

I went to work today, someone was sick. then there was a scheduling snafu (this happens fairly often) so we were caught with minimal coverage, but luckily it was in the afternoon when things were kinda slow.
I may get called in tomorrow, but I'm kinda hoping I don't. Partly because it's SO PRETTY! outside, also tomorrow it might get up to 81F. And they haven't been turning on the a/c at work so it's been hot and uncomfortable.

My lucky vintage Lagerfeld riding jacket?
I think "lucky" is the key word here.

I have to test how it looks over the black and pink striped menswear-style shirt Pete thinks I should wear.

Yay for begignity!
And I vote lucky, too. Woo!
And I scored another, most probably steady, freelance writing gig for the place I co-work out of once a week! HELLS YEAH!
Now I go into hunter mode. Erin hungry. Need food now. Eat leg. Get back pronouns.

We have worked out a compromise with the seller, who really is a wonderfully reasonable person. We are no longer getting cash back at closing, but he has come down significantly on the price. It is still going to be tighter for us than I wanted it to be but it is doable.

Rock on, Erin!
In continuing good news, the nice doll people have let me know that my Ms. Beetlejuice doll will arrive on Thursday. (Pete said "You're getting a doll for my birthday? Typical." ) AND the other nice lady at the Wilde Imagination company emailed me to ask which of their dolls I want first. (!!!) I've asked for the Dandy of Death: [link]
(Yes, I have an outfit similar to that. OF COURSE I do.)
