lol, thanks. blush.gif

while it is indeed rather easy to like me, wanting to have me around you all day, and having to paying me for it, is another story entirely.

Hey, glad you guys found my resume advice interesting and/or useful. As I said, it's that tricky thing of finding just the right thing. pB, I'd suggest against oenophile. I talked about things with baggage and that has tons. Tons of baggage around any mention of drinking these days and could be seen as snooty by plebs in high places. I think marathon completion is good because I'd be thinking "low utilizer" and would not drive up the cost of health care premiums. laugh.gif

At my first public sector conference; they are infinitely worse than academic conferences.

Also, "Gangnam Style" has now been mentioned by three different speakers.

obviously this was some time ago lol8[1].gif

again, he was applying for a position in Miami. the last time i attended a Miami - New England game in Miami, it was MNF and there wasn't a Patriot fan left in my section by the 4th quarter....they had all been tossed for fighting with Miami fans (along with the Miami fans of course), or left early because they didn't want to fight Miami fans. just to give you some context on how that resume would have been received anywhere south of Palm Beach County

I was at the library tonight and I splashed some water on my pants' crotch while emptying out a water bottle in a way that totally looked like I wet myself, so I had to apply more water on my pants to make it look like I got my pants wet doing something else.

did you use that as an opportunity to actually wet yourself, since people were going to think that anyways?

feel better meng. I wish I could go there, give you a nice warm bath, and scrub that bear of a body of yours all over, dress you up, tuck you in and do a reach around while you're lying there with me nibbling your soft earlobe. nod[1].gif

In my experience that doesn't always work

okay this is bad.... some of you might remember, during my time off from work last month one of our staff had some kind of mental breakdown at work- speaking gibberish and was kinda spaced out. she went on a leave and did some tests and all that. well she reported to work monday, and I asked for her medical files just to make sure she's getting proper treatment and all. Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
as an aside, I do this because one thing about living in the 3rd world where universal health care is at a bare minimum- you could end up with a fuck up of a doctor that will just give you their equivalence of "take 2 aspirins and call me in the morning" even if you're literally dying right in front of him

this staff of ours has been here even before I started working here and she's like family. so anyway, I showed the mri result to a sibling of mine who happens to be an specialist in that field, and she just told me that it doesn't look good- as in she probably has brain tumor, and its pretty big and spreading. I've personally arranged for her to see a neuro-oncologist first thing in the morning tomorrow, and from what I've been told, she'll probably be admitted immediately for a biopsy.

she doesn't know how possibly severe her condition is. Its more prudent for the doctor to tell her, and I don't wanna scare her by telling her what may or may not have. but today is probably her last day to work here, after more than 2 decades. everyone in the office is bummed out, like how you know a family member is dying. life indeed sucks sometimes. fuck.
