It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

[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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Jesus, I get them repeatedly. I mean only every 6-9 months (or maybe even closer to a year), but when they happen over and over again, it's just EVIL. And holy cow, TWO of them is like a curse has been cast upon me.

Tep, the interview will be brilliant! I have no doubts.

I'm actually pretty confident about my experience and skills, but where my confidence is shaky is in how AWKWARD I am when I talk to people I don't know. But I think I'll be okay.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA, job craziness update: if I sign the PIP, I can't move to another team. If I don't sign the PIP, we start the process for a 30 day paid job hunt internally. As I don't want to work for Umbridge anymore, guess what option I'm telling the HR minion tomorrow?

On the plus side, the HR director at Cheezburger has been directly emailed my résumé, because I have connections.

It sounds like the other team wants you, though, right? That's promising. But what a frustrating, needless ball of shit.

ALSO promising!

OMG Jilli. It's a rock and a hard place all in one.

brenda,

forgive me for asking this, but is your sister goddess sized by chance? There have been studies that doctors mistreat larger patients routinely. It is fucking ridiculous.

Because books.

Good god, Jilli. A curse upon her.

And holy cow, TWO of them is like a curse has been cast upon me.

It's twice the pain!

Have you tried frozen peas? In the bag, I mean. It can help.

I didn't even think about that. I was trying a warm washcloth, but something frozen didn't even occur to me. Duh.

I have had to resort to ice bags on the cho-cha for an infected cyst (cleaned it myself: slow, but the pain was controllable, but hello, AWKWARD mirror and lamp placement!)

If there's itching/burning, alternate ice bags with cold, wet tea bags -- I had two staph infections on my crotch, buttocks and upper legs this spring. Took till the second one for them to diagnose it properly. Trust me, the itching was worse than poison ivy: before I got the Rx cream, I was seriously thinking a garden rake to the hoo-ha was the only way to go.

Teppy, feel better.

Jilli, tons of job~ma. It sounds like getting away from your current manager is for the best.

G was both exhausted and didn't want to go to bed, but he is there anyway. I grabbed a cookbook from the library, so I'll have something to look at while I wait for H to come home.
