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.

Thrive to spite them

Nope, but I just did a quick search and it looks like Staples has fax services so I'll go there.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Tom went to the dentist and it's an issue with an infection where he had a root canal.

I literally feel his pain. Right now, as a matter of fact. No fun.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Omni. Collection agencies can really be helpful when it turns out you are trying to pay them and there is something they can do to make it possible. For example, if you have misplaced your collection notice I guarantee they will fax you another on request, or email you another. (Create a throwaway email at a free service, and delete it afterwords.)
That might be, and if I can't find it tonight, I may do that. But given how fast she went from nice to bitch when I was asking for details of the account. It's a $1500 bill that my insurance has paid close to $3000 on, and they say we still owe $1300 on it (and acruing interest). That is all kinds of BS. I really feel for folks working in collections. But, if I'm trying to figure things out, there is no need to start raising your voice at me, and spewing "if you aren't going to pay now, it will impact your credit rating" (or something to that effect), yeah, I just can't deal with that. I fear it's going to take awhile to clear this up. And that because it's gone to collections, and probably needlessly, it's going to make it that much harder to clear up. All this because we have regional health care system. But that is a debate for some other time, I suppose.

Yeah, I was thinking about your recent troubles and hoping that Tom doesn't need to get his tooth pulled.

{{{Nora}}} So sorry. And good luck to Tom, too!

Omnis, geez. Coping ~ma for...everything. Hope it all gets figured out.

Good luck, askye!

What villains do you feel sympathy or maybe even empathy for, without moving all the way to their side?

hmmm, I think when I understand the motivation for their actions, but don't approve of the actions themselves (i.e. faulty maintenance caused a crash that killed my husband, so I'm gonna kill the engineer who made the payoff. But, I am okay with making him think that he killed a guy and crashed the Spruce Goose, so therefore needs to flee to Canada)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Smonster, I hope you get a good night's sleep and wake up feeling better.

I have my aunt's funeral in the morning. I definitely want to go to honor her, but I am nervous about seeing some of my relatives. I could use any calm-ma that can be spared.

Ugh, I did something boneheaded that may affect me getting my car load. ARGH.

Lots of calm~ma, sj.

Vortex, I hope it's no big deal.

In better news, I went on two dates with this guy from OKC, and then he went to China for a couple of weeks but I saw he had logged on from there; I thought he wasn't that into me, so I sent him a message letting him know that I'd leave it up to him to contact me when he got home if he wanted to see me again. Turns out he thought I wasn't that into him! So!!! For ONCE, my "oh-fuckit-I'm-gonna-lay-out-my-cards" thing worked out. At least so far.

And now I must stretch just enough to let me sleep. Owies. Maybe half a flexeril?
