sounds good, shrift.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

I know, right?! How is such a thing even possible?
when I left my last job, the transition to COBRA was not smooth, and took longer than I expected, almost six weeks.
Thanks for the caution, dcp! I had a feeling that this was going to be a pain.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow, shrift, congrats!
I somehow drifted away from checking here, too, so: Hello! I still have my one job.

OMG, I just read Beep Me, and that is devastating to learn about Norah. I guess everyone else has already worked through it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It's still pretty upsetting

yeah...I find things she commented on all the time and end up thinking it through again. Not like her nearest and dearest, of course.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Congrats shrift!
Mr. S is getting discharged from the RTC on Friday and I'm a bit nervous about it. Doesn't help that he had a major meltdown last night(We did a Saturday to Monday visit because there was a visit to a potential non-public school, and a visit to the new public school scheduled for today) which involved him pulling my hair and throwing things at me.

Job having is good.
Sending good vibes to all of you, Sheryl.
I woke up with a tickle in my throat this morning, so I am trying to placebo my way out of an actual cold or whatever with Zicam and am also taking Mucinex to pre-game in case there is an onslaught on the way. Please send mind-over-matter vibes my way.
