Excellent news #1: I might not be completely hopeless at pool. [livejournal.com profile] triadruid and I have put in a few evenings of dicking around playing pool at Side Pockets, and, while I can't actually beat him, I can now lose a lot closer game. :) Last night I learned the black art of the cut shot. I figure as long as we keep playing about once a week or so, I'll be able to retain the skills I'm acquiring, and one day, one day, I might be able to beat the boy. For now, though, I am satisfied to mostly not look like a complete fuckwit.

Excellent news #2: I have found a viable option for a location for the Longest Night party. More on that as it develops. *grin*

Excellent news #3: I am off work today, and crossing my fingers that at the end of the day, I'll have the Saturn all legally registered to me, with tags and everything. We'll see.

Excellent news #4: V.A. has been terminated.

Just thought I'd share the happy news with you. :)

Yeah, I knew that. Thing is, the end of your headache really only represents the beginning of mine, at least in that arena, since I'll be defending us against the litany of claims that will no doubt ensue.

I hope that should go smoothly - T. said she got all the ducks in a row on the paperwork and made it really blatant and official and clear why A.'s being terminated, so that should help you defend against the claims, right?

And I thought you wanted A. gone. :)

Oh, you're so cute. :)

And I thought you wanted A. gone.

No doubt about that. I'm just saying I'm not going to count it as good news until we get past the expiration period for unemployment, DOL, and EEOC claims.

Yeah, well, yanno. *grin*

Did you guys get the lawn resolved yet? You probably only have 1-2 more mowings left in the season... wasn't sure if you had found anyone.

Not exactly, but I have a guy who's supposed to come by later today and bid for the job.

Party?!? ~ears perk in that Da-Rabbit-is-back-in-her-winter-warren-and-I-can-do-more-adult-play way!~

Oh yes. :) Look for a note Real Soon Now with party information.

RE: #2

I haven't heard back from her yet. I'll let you know as soon as I do. Do you have a drop dead "I need to know by X date?"

[identity profile] featherynscale.livejournal.com 2008-09-26 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Not really, but really soon. :)

Question: What space are you wanting? Fellowship or Barn?

She didn't think you could get 100-200 people in Barn (but then, I don't know your plans so you tell me).
