If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

[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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

You deserve it all and more, Maria. Congrats.

First day back at work and not only am I in the office but I have an all day meeting scheduled. So much for getting caught up quickly.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Yay, Maria! Congrats!

Best of luck in catchup mode, Suzi!

I have no additional wisdom on the blister, Vortex, but how is the Couch to 5K coming?

Vortex, I waved to you when I drove through Hartford at 5am on the way to the airport. One of these days I will be in CT and not be scheduled within an inch of my life so I can see you. Congrats on the couch to 5K! You can do it!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

They gave me everything I wanted

That is fabulous news!!! Should I be looking for you at an airport near me? We got a bunch in Southern California. The weather is great (if you like sunny, mid 70's-80's, blue sky, low humidity).

Now go enjoy turning in that letter of "Kiss off, I'm outta here" to the old job. Hopefully you have some sick time or vacation time you can take so those two weeks aren't spent in the office of doom.

Oy. This all day meeting I got pulled into today...they said they had complex costing workbooks that needed major revisions and matching to a couple of corporate systems and very difficult and technical and did I even have the skills to help them out. Ummmm, simple excel spreadsheet, I've already completed as much as I can without input from the project manager. Yes, the corporate systems will be fun to match but that is pretty straight forward.

So now I'm working on other stuff while they get their info together. Wheee.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

YAY MARIA!

How soon do you get to tell the current employers to stuff it? Are you going to film it and show it every Christmas?
