[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.

Compassionately intolerant

beth, that really was my thought...after I stopped feeling betrayed.

She must have realized that she stepped in it because there were several messages, while I was working today, that amounted to, "Oh no! I haven't heard from you and I'm SO worried!!!! If I don't hear from you, I'm going to have to reach out to mutual friends, or whatever, to make sure you are okay.'

The demandy 'take care of MY feelings' spasm felt kind of bullying in itself.

Chillax lady. I have this. I always had it. Just didn't think I needed to pretend like it didn't effect me for your comfort.

Sheesh.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Love and hairpats to them that wants 'em. Tried to say something more but couldn't spell it, nit even close enough to get help from spellcheck. So I had to go back and do with smaller words.

Tired and anxious about new job.

Our wings are not tired.

You got this, Andi! Seriously, it is clear that you have the skill set and temperament to excel in your new position.

Super serious diet mode. Yikes I put it on the last few days of eating and sitting around. Walked my poor neglected dog around the park a couple times to get it started. She was happy, my back not so much.

WS, what Laura said. You're going to be great at this!

I need to do this too. The recent weight gain is not helping with my pain or energy levels.

I swear, this is the most annoying thing ever. Don't make your fuckup MY PROBLEM, especially since I'm the victim of it! Ugh.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Laura - that is some epic level bullshit. I am so, so sorry, love. People can be such asshats. Love to you, sweetheart.

Good morning, y'all. I'm trying to not hide from the beautiful day and wallow in my shit. Not sure how successful I'll be. I'm thinking maybe I should have worked today instead of taking it off.

Trudging through my Friday, but thinking I am going to run out and vote. That should help.

I'm sorry, Aims. We're here to distract you!

Much love and support to everyone. I keep trying to say more eloquent things, but they don't express what I really feel, which is that I want to wrap you all up in blankets and keep you safe from upsets and annoyances.

And in a separate post: Today's 8am meeting was actually useful, because it was with people who work directly on my product, and they're good peeps! Buuuuuut it lead to the creation of a weekly meeting: Monday, 7am.

The only reason I agreed to it is that a weekly meeting to force people to discuss documentation is good. But 7am is not a time I'm pleased about.
