[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.

I made it to my car, Laura, so 5:10! LIKE A BOSS.

My unreasonable love for Royal manual typewriters goes back to teenage days when I suddenly had unlimited access to my grandpa's old Royal. I learned how to type lightning fast on that old thing, which required speed, accuracy, and strength. Still hit the keys way too hard. Shows my age, I reckon.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Lilty, I would have said sarcastic things to the person telling me that. I don't do well with arbitrary schedules and punching clocks, never have.

In college I'd be typing on my old manual Smith Corona, and my roommate said once "Where's the power cord?" "It doesn't have one." She brought in people to watch how fast I typed.

Oh yeah... typing too fast and the keys tangling together and having to pry them carefully apart... the carriage return and the ding! So very satisfying. Even if carbon paper was horrible to use.

Carbon paper was a miraculous step up from mimeograph, for me.

Mimeograph fluid, mmmm . . .

Zenkitty, I'm normally ok! But when they said that clocking in one minute late twice over the year is the same as one unexcused sick day in their book, even I was surprised. And I'm HR!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Lilty, that's insane. Most places I have worked had a 5 minute grace period.

I did errands with thessaly today, and now I'm beyond exhausted. TCG has a meeting tonight so I'm on my own for a while, and I should probably eat at some point. Luckily, there is leftover cheesy polenta in the fridge.
