He's also not Jewish, which means my grandmother will probably start haunting me or something. (He's culturally Christian, but not really practicing anything.)
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Well, I got turned down for another job today, one of the jobs for which I had a second, face-to-face interview. I'm pretty bummed about it. I've spent 21 years developing what I thought was a pretty terrific skill set, I've been told that I interview well, and I have a great resume. I'm open to moving to positions in pretty much half of the country. But no one wants me. Apparently I've spent two decades making myself utterly worthless.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Calli, how demoralizing. And it's not true, but I get why it feels that way.
Hil, I know the not-Jewish thing can feel daunting, but a good connection is definitely worth exploring.

Thanks, Burrell.
In less whiny news, isn't it Jilli's birthday? Happy birthday, Jilli!

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
Calli, I'm not sure if you're just willing or really wanting to move but, if it is the latter, you may want to think about deciding where you want to live and just moving there. When I was in your situation and was being turned down for job after job, I finally had a HR person tell me that companies didn't want to hire an external candidate who had to move unless it was for a senior executive position. I took the leap and moved, worked a retail job for a while and then found my current position which I wouldn't have even known about if I didn't live here. I know that I was lucky to have some savings (and my 401k as a last resort) but I ultimately decided I'd rather go through my savings in the place I wanted to live instead of in the place I wanted to leave.

Thats so hard, Calli. Hugs.
Smonster, I get in sunday around 530pm and leave the Saturday at 630.
