'Not Fade Away'


Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.  

[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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I bought that book too. Haven't managed to read it yet.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Would anyone be willing to review/help me with my resume and/or linkedin profile? I need a new job but haven't figured out yet where or who my target audience is...so that's helpful.

That sounds really interesting teppy--I had no idea there were ways to mitigate it, though I had seen some of the studies about epigenetics and stuff.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Steph, what's the title? I'm curious about that research.

Thrive to spite them

I'm curious about that too and want to tell my therapist.

Also work is bullshit. They are changing the way we do things because we are taking too long and not getting out truck as fast as the manager would. Someone who has done this for years vs people who have done this for a few months.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

That sound fascinating, Teppy.

Coffee: askye, that sounds like some premium grade bullshit.

Thrive to spite them

It got worse. This is the first time the new supervisor opened and she hasn't worked truck much. So she had to ditch at, paperwork, and get the registers open all the first time. By herself. They told her how to do things and she took notes but they didn't show her. She was worried about getting chewed out for not doing things on time and correctly.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

This is the book: [link] I thought I had some of the research bookmarked, but I don't. I'll have to poke around.

That book sounds interesting. Someone I've known for decades, from book group, now does body work and other kinds of healing in Portland, plus computer programming. She does a really comprehensive newsletter, and I just looked and she reviewed that book and has links to the book Steph talked about, to the test in the book, and some of the research in it. She's good people and she's really smart. Here's the link in case you're interested. You have to scroll, there are a whole bunch of book reviews here. [link]
