Why no, I can't sleep. So I'm marathoning Buffy and working.
Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

Sorry, Suzi. Sleep~ma to you.
A client just called me on a day I'm not working on, apologized for calling me when I'm not working, and asked for something to be done ASAP. Something that she could have sent an email in order for me to do on Sunday, Monday, and the week before that, not an emergency at all, and my boss could have done it if I'm away.
The only mystery is how the hell she got my private number. Must refresh around the office my policy that clients do not get my private number nor email address. I don't work full time and we don't provide 24/7 support to justify such calls.

Wtf? No, you don't give someone's kid--no matter how mature, unless the maturity means he's no longer legally a kid--a rifle. Sounds like the bf is trying to forment discord.
And thanks, y'all. I genuinely thought I was either going crazy or having psychic flashes about my approaching doom. I'm glad I could resolve it by flinging the soap off my front porch. And I did end up putting one of my favorite perfumes on a cotten ball and putting that next to the HVAC intake. Now my apartment smells like BPAL's Tintagle.
ETA, what the heck, Shir? Boundaries! Your client needs to discover them and your coworkers need to protect them better.

Hec is right. You are right. They are totally completely wrong. Bf is just trying to make you be the bad guy.
I had to copy and paste because speechless!

Did he give you a gun safe too?

When I wrote back to her I asked her to email me in advance in the future. My co-worker and boss know not to give my number, so I suspect it might be the secratary. Long story short, someone did something wrong with my phone at work and now all of my calls get to her first. I might have to fix it myself, because the person responsible to getting it fixed is a "let you do my job for me" type of person. However, it's been going on for weeks now, and I'm tired of it, so I guess I'll sollow that frog (I would have done it sooner, but he approched me with this on literally the busiest day I have every year - a day before our annual conference. I'm 40% of the organization commitee and my to-do-list does not need any more tasks).

Suzi, that is effed up, and this is coming from a girl was had a .22 as a farm girl. The BF sounds like an ass.
BF should pay for gun safety lessons, range practice and a gun safe.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Gun in your house with out anyone talking to you .
no fucking way
It doesn't matter how you feel about guns, guns are not toys .
even if CJ was an adult - unless he is on the lease - - not without your ok.

A gun?! Wow. That seems deliberately provocative to me.

Yikes, Suzi. Has CJ ever handled or fired a gun before? Had he ever previously expressed interest in owning one? I mean, just how out of left field was this??
Whatever his previous experience with guns, obviously it is NOT OK for someone to give him a gun without checking with you first, at least not while he is (a) legally a minor and (b) living in your house. I'm just wondering where the idea came from in the first place.
