The weather changed, so my migraine has pretty much gone.
I'm glad you feel better, WS.
EVERYONE GETS A GOOD DAY TODAY. Do you hear me, Universe? Make it happen.
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

[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 just got my contract for 2017, and they agreed to my rate increase! I was pretty much set for them to say no, because they are apparently known for being cheap as hell with their freelancers, but damn if they didn't cough it up.
ABOUT TIME, 2016. (Though it doesn't take effect until 2017. Still. I gotta put stuff in the Win column whenever I can for this ridonkulous year.)

Awesome.
I went for a walk along the waterfront at lunch and there was a guy with a hawk. I mentioned it to a friend and she said he's there on weekdays to scare the seagulls. I think Oz could do a job like that. He needs a job.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Congrats, Steph! That is awesome!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Jess, would me putting the image of Ross in your head going, "Pi-VOT! Pi-VOT!", make it better or worse?
Awesome, Steph!
Bee, stay safe.
Love you guys, now back to work! (That's to me, you guys get to be in charge of your own internet v. work balance).

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Congrats, Steph! They know they better appreciate you!

That's great, Steph! I'm glad they came through.
We received notice that my department is reorganizing. No idea what it means to anyone in it, but the people who've been here a while don't seem unduly bothered.
Sofa~ma, Jessica!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Glad you are feeling better, Jilli.
Steph, that's great news! Congrats!
Jess, how frustrating. Hope your guy can fix it for $40*.
I hope the reorg is no big deal, Calli.
My day is turning out okay. Boss was understanding, came in late, have achieved sufficient for the day, and am now eating a quick lunch before cleaning up.
