River ,'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My cats have abandoned me too. I have work but nothing with a hard deadline today. Unusual for the last day of the month, so I am giving the side eye to my e-mail.
Plus I have the edge of a headache. I'm trying to cut it off but it is laughing at the puny Ibuprofen, like it knows I have Percocet and Vicodin in my room.
Squeeze 'em!
Thing is, I can't squeeze 'em too hard or they won't win the contract. It's the client who's squeezing.
I can afford to make less than I did before: I can't afford to not get a job at all, after 7 months out of work.
Rescue pony foal playing with a little girl. Too cute.

Argh. Yeah. I hope you don't get screwed too badly.
Good luck, Consuela!
I hope you don't get screwed too badly.
Since I had the heretical-for-Americans view that I was being rather overpaid in my last full-time job, the prospect of making a bit less for this gig is not horrifying. It's kind of the principle of the thing, I guess--we're never supposed to make LESS.
Ah, well. I'll find out more later. Now I'm off to the vet, and then to pick up Dad for an appointment, then race home, catch the bus to BART, go to work in the city for the afternoon. Then come home, walk the dog, change, go climbing.
Being unemployed is not nearly as restful as I was led to believe, I must admit...
I am at the airport with free wi-fi and there is a plane here getting emptied for me to board. WHEE!
I hope it works out, and soon, Consuela.
Why is msbelle on a plane? What did I miss? (Also, yay!)
Woot msbelle! Have a great, and productive, weekend!
I am trying to move a bunch of minor onerosity off my lap today. So far, so good. It always surprises me how much can be done by email. I must have sent out at least 50 emails today, and that's not counting the 30-40 more that I can't send directly so I've sent an email out to their directors asking them to send it for me.
Msbelle is going somewhere? I hope it's somewhere awesome!
