The direct number to a person at Kaiser I have to talk to is on my computer, which crashed. Now I'm on terminal hold.
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I am in awe of the bitches getting shit done like adults! I'm trying. Hmm, maybe if I say it with more confidence, I'll feel better about it. eh. Moving sucks. I can say that with confidence. Couch is in the new place. Moved that before heading into work. All that is left is: entertainment center (and all that is on it), recliner, all of kitchen (ugg), and then the misc stuff that you always go "wtf box should this go in so I can find it later". Oh, and about 1/3 of the clothes in the closet. And the bed. Tomorrow is the big push day. Then sleep in the new place, and wake up Saturday morning to be here at work by 8am. That... will suck.
Oh, and got word from property management folk:
I heard from [construction company] and im waiting for a proposal for an engineer....this will be a process so please expect at least 30 days to start repairs ..I will keep you posted
Which means living out of boxes for about 90 days. The construction guy said they will do all they can to minimize dust, but, the more that is in boxes, the less stuff will get dusty. So, that puts a big halt on the unpack/nest/move in process. Fun!
OK, now. Gotta work. But just feeling like I need to horde the spoons for the next two days. So. Don't wanna do anything. Blaaahhh.
Did I mention, I hate moving.

I found a task to do, that requires no thinking/moving. Here at work, we are changing from Oracle to Outlook for scheduling. They have online videos to train me. I am watching them. Even though we are using the web version, and the training videos are for the Windows application version, and they are different.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I went to Target, have a load in the dishwasher, made the bed and have worked on a sample for a potential client for an hour (yeah, I get paid to work on samples. It's my time, beeyotches!)
I'm up against one copyeditor for this MS, and I want it, because the author was a co-founder of the Reduced Shakespeare Company, won two Daytime Emmy Awards as a writer-producer for the Walt Disney Company, and, most recently, authored a New York Times Book Review "Editor's Choice" and a California Book Awards finalist. ! His agent recommended me!
I'm being a motherfucking adult in a T-shirt that says "BITE ME!"

I am arguing about contraception with a very religious Catholic friend on facebook. I should stop, because this is getting annoying. I keep saying things like "this is how this would affect me" or "this is how this has affected these actual women I know," and he always responds things like "in the case of a woman who..." He seems completely unwilling to step out of the theoretical, and it's driving me nuts.

I think my favorite pregnancy book was one that showed in uterine images of the baby every week or so. It was coffee table sized. I loved Dr Sears' Baby Book also but that's not really a pregnancy book.
I am shocked (ok, surprised maybe) that there are people who would give you a hard time. I guess that is probably my privilege talking.
Sammy is now 6 months old, sitting up, and enjoying solid food. He is just the greatest thing ever.

It sounds like he isn't open for debate, to see the other side, and learn from it. All he wants to do is convert you to his point of view. If you are not wanting to be converted, then say "I'm afraid it looks like we will never see eye to eye on this topic" and step away from the discussion.

Yeah, I just posted something like that. I think I got a little too reality-based for him, by mentioning actual body parts and processes, and he said it was "inappropriate" for facebook. (I wasn't aware that anything was inappropriate for facebook, but whatever.)

One of my FB friends -a teenager-just liked a picture of a naked woman and man in the shower. The guy has his hand inside her. I thought that was sort of inappropriate for FB.
But as long as we are discussing body parts and not showing them, I'm good with it.
