Congratulations, Sara! I'm so glad you're finally being properly compensated. This is long overdue.

msbelle, I'm assuming after I leave... Would be nice to get a Boston fix in while I'm away from home. Fie on mac. I wish that child would take his mama into consideration before he does stupid shit.

Avoid DirecTV like it's 45. The merger with ATT has ruined them, and I'm about to have a stroke because of their nonsense.

Congratulations, Sara!

Ugh, msbelle. I'm sorry.

Vortex, that is a solid argument, imho.

Yep, after you leave. May not even be this week, but they seem to get a few placements every single week.

I expect pictures.

Vortex, don't be using logic on these people. You know it's going to go over their heads. Sound reasoning is a foreign concept to them.

Yay sarameg!

Congratulatons, sara!

Not discussing jillifonts.

Vortex, that was extremely well presented. It would or will not, I fear, have any influence whatever on men who already have their minds made up and are growing impatient with those trying to slow or thwart their forgone plans. In other words, "It's inevitable. Just relax, would you, and let this happen."

I have a big meeting today with someone who is a long time friend of BK. Other than Friend, everyone in the room will be female. After our first meeting, Friend said to me, "now I know how you feel!" (That is, outnumbered by men in the room.) I said, "Not yet you don't."

Congratulations on the raise, Sarameg!

Congrats on the Boston Fostering, msbelle!

That giant Jillifont is quite the beastie. I'm ok with Jillifonts if they're not venomous or actually on me. Hereabouts we're in webs everywhere season, and last week one decided that my front door was a great place to build one. I blundered through it and the spider ended up webbed to me for an exciting few minutes. We both lived. After the spider made it to the ground she found a leaf to hide under and was peeking out at me like, "Holy crap, look at the giant that I almost caught!"

Baba Yaga feminism intrigues me and I wish to subscribe to her RSS feed.

Natter with cocoa/coffee this morning.

Congrats, sarameg! Having your value finally recognized is a beautiful thing! Well deserved.

I'm not talking about jillfonts, but apparently tis the season here too.

Yay fostering, msbelle! Pictures soon please.

Yes Vortex, exactly. His behavior and legal history are disqualifying even without the sexual assaults.

I am just taking them and not saying anything.

Ha, this is what I have done with #1 son. Including substances he had mailed to the house. No son, didn't get any mail for you. If you will have pot mailed to MY house I will lie to your face and say it didn't arrive. Without guilt or hesitation.

I said, "Not yet you don't."

Ha!

Leaves are turning rapidly now. Have to get my butt outside and take some pictures.

After our first meeting, Friend said to me, "now I know how you feel!" (That is, outnumbered by men in the room.) I said, "Not yet you don't."

I love you.
