Is there any way you can take more classes during the layoff, so you could finish school faster, Aimee?
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Greetings most wise and noble worshippers of the Green Fairy. I have got a bottle of absinthe for my birthday and I have never even tried it before. Is it very important that my first time be with the traditional sugar cube and ice water drip? If I don't have the proper tools can I use a slotted spoon? Or is that all romantic silliness and I should just pour some over ice? I couldn't even crack the bottle without consulting you guys first.

You must wait for Jilli's ruling, Laga.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

At this point, not really. Maybe in the summer. Unless the layoff continued through fall. If they had let me go when the funding ran out for my job LAST FREAKING JUNE, I could have taken more classes last and this semester and I would have knocked an entire semester off my time in school.

Not Jilli, but when I had an absinthe tasting at a distillery, they served it over ice. We were instructed to wait for the liquid to become cloudy before we drank it.

I would also, probably, get more money from unemployment than I do working full time.
How is that possible? Or is it just becuase you wouldn't be paying health insurance anymore?

Because I wouldn't be paying $512/month in health insurance.

Ahahaha!
Laga, I have some questions before I can give you a ruling. What brand of absinthe is it? How well do you like the flavor of licorice?

Thrive to spite them
Aimee that really sucks.
I'm pretty sure I'm getting sick. After barely seeing Will because he's been sick and busy with work now I'm getting sick. At least I'm not having to miss any work. Yesterday I made a meal plan for the next few days, figured out things to make. This morning I wasn't feeling great, but not bad, by the time I got to the grocery store I had to put stuff back b/c I know I won't cook it if I'm sick.
But Will came over and we had Italian and watched Big Bang Theory (which he still likes more than Community) and now he's gone to Rite Aid to get me cough drops and chocolate.
And Penny seems to be out of heat, at least she wasn't writhing and yowling today. And the vet didn't send the application for the state program, just the information but I found the application online so I have to get that done tomorrow.
