Buffy ,'The Killer In Me'
[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.
but I also see the delicious, hilarious irony in this.
When I worked for the power company, a construction crew down the street severed the power cable to our building. Without power, there was damn little we could do, so we were sent home. I trudged down 22 flights of stairs to find that every local station was filming us, because they found the power company without power irresistible.
We just found out that the head of our program is going to come speak to us all tomorrow first thing. The general reaction to this announcement was uncertainty and nervous jokes.
Hmm.
sigh ... I just had a series of emails back and forth with someone in my office who just CANNOT understand that what she sees on her screen isn't what everyone - or even most people - will see on theirs. Well, OF COURSE, everyone will see exactly what she sees ... and stop being difficult.
Can you send her a screen shot of what most people see?
She won't believe it - if it looks all right on her screen, anyone who has a problem is doing something wrong.
I've been there, Todd. I've wanted to beat people over the head while yelling, "This is not print. This is not print. It will never work like print."
smonster, understand the nervous jokes. Hope it turns out to be good news.
ION, D's co.'s issue with paychecks STILL not resolved, and almost no information coming forth on it.
This is...Not Good. We pay our mortgage at the 1st of the month, but I'm feeling awful for the people who have a day-after-payday autopay set up for it and other expenses.
It's a clusterfuck, and we are both not needing THIS extra money SNAFU at all. Not at ALL.
And, just to make life complete, I've discovered that my insurnce isn't covering more than I thought of my cataract surgery. The first one they'd told me I'd be responsible for $20 to the hospital, period. Needless to say, I was overjoyed. Then I got the report on what's covered and what's not and it turns out that there's $550 or so that isn't being covered. When I'd called to find out about the second eye, since it was being done at a different place (because of the doctor's schedule) they said they didn't have anything about a second operation. I called the doctor's office and spoke to the person who handles insurance stuff and she said she'd sent the paperwork in for both operations at the same time, she's done her part, end of conversation. Back to the insurance company and they have no record of any second operation ... which means it wasn't pre-approved and I may end up paying the whole thing out of pocket (about $2,800). Plus follow-up visits and such, plus new glasses. I'd started a flexible spending account for this, but it's not going to cover an entire surgery. Pisses me off no end.
I don't blame you for being pissed about this, Toddson. GRRR.
