[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.

It's an automated system and won't let me submit until the scores are in their electronic records.

Thank you, Askye.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

ARgh, that's annoying Sail.

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

That's frustrating, Sail. Is there anyway to contact someone directly and let them know what the situation with the test is?

Damn stubborn uti is not cleared up yet. I'm very frustrated and getting more worried. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow after the ultrasound. So, I guess we're going to discuss it with her then.

I could probably send my resume directly to the department that's posting the position, but they may just chuck it because 1) the position wasn't listed as a permissive transfer, which would allow me to apply outside the state system and strictly within the UW system, and 2) my name won't be on the list they request from the state because my scores aren't ready. The way the state system works is: the job gets posted, people apply and get put on a list, the department that posted the position tells the state how deep into the list they want to go: 15, 25, 35, etc. and then the department interviews everyone on the list. I'm stuck at the point where I can't apply because no scores. Sigh.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

SA is from Portland, and I believe is still looking for work.

I just heard from the nurse again, and they're probably going to give me a dose of injectable antibiotic tomorrow to see if that helps. I started to freak out because I thought she was going to say an IV, which would mean a hospital stay.

Thanks, Tom!

I hope the shot clears things up, sj.
