Maria, I wish I could give you a do over on any number of things.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

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.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh crappity, I'm sorry Maria.

Oh no, Maria! That sucks. I wish you could get a do over.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Four months on this job.
I was headed to Staples for my boss to get a binder for the Mexico bid. It sucks. Great impression to give them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Blargh, Maria. I thought I was generating enough car accident suck for most of the board...

Because books.
Oh, Maria. I'm so sorry.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I like my real estate agent but not for his mastery of the English language. He just used the word cliche instead of glitch in an e-mail he sent me.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh, Maria, that sucketh mightily. I'm sorry. It's totally the kind of thing that could happen to anyone, though -- please try not to beat yourself up about it too much.

Our wings are not tired.
That's an outragious deductible for a company car being used for company business. I am beyond pissed on your behalf. I am so sorry, Maria.
I gave written notice from my job on Wednesday. Tomorrow I have a meeting with the CFO (a longtime ally of mine, but rather a lame duck with a brand new CEO) and I've been told he's going to try and get me to stay. It's possible that I would, but I need to see what compelling ($) reasons he will give me. In the meantime, I've completely revised my CV and am rather proud of it. And it's in my headhunter's greedy little hands as of 5 minutes ago.
