Happy Birthday, Zen and Kiba!
Steph, what an asshat. I bet he goes through assistants like tic-tacs.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I used to have to edit abstracts submitted for a meeting that had a character limit, including spaces.
No one gets that a character limit includes spaces, and it makes me BONKERS.

She did it!!!!! K-Bug passed her boards! Not that I doubted she would.
She also got a collection letter from the college saying she owes $500. She got a scholarship in Feb for $500 and it looks like they reversed it 10 days after grad. Total bullshit. She is getting it handled but what bullshit.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hooray K-Bug!
That is ridiculous, reversing a scholarship after graduation.
I got a last minute testing scenario at work around half an hour, maybe less, before I was supposed to leave. On the one hand, I am annoyed to have one more thing to do, and with a tight deadline, and argh. On the other, I am excited about how this thing will improve my workflow if it works. So, mixed feelings. Left work an hour or so late, which is a drag, but still have a few minutes to get myself together and head out to the movies without being late...

Tep, do you have the option of laying out his article in multicolored Fink Heavy so it will convey the proper authorial tone of a tantrum-throwing kindergartener?

I had a professor who had a strict 2,000-word limit for most papers. He'd draw a line at the 2,001st word and write, "This paper has no conclusion."
