While I’ve come to absolutely embrace my dykeness, right about now I wish I was straight, as I have the biggest, hugest crush on you! Why, oh why do you have to be so effing fantastic AND have a penis?! —Not Gay for a Day

  6. You know what’s REALLY the bomb?

    Unemployment.

    Or better yet:

    unemployment with EI benefits.

  8. I’m super! Got rid of my job. They had no intentions of moving me from contact to permanent in the foreseeable future, so I’m moving on. I’m not spending my life in a position with no benefits making 12k less than the permanent status position because they’re not “there yet.” (as in they’re not ready to make me permanent even though I’ve more than proved myself).

    I’m not working my butt off for less pay than everyone else with that classification with no benefits or pension plan for no good reason.

    I’ll find something else. In the meantime I have 6 months of EI to hold me over and I have some savings so I can afford to be relatively choosey. I’ve just learned my lesson that settling is not acceptable anymore.

  11. LOL, thanks guys! I just got confirmation that I will indeed be getting EI… so I can devote my summer to: a) lounging in bed until 10; b) lounging around in pretty non-work appropriate dresses; c) focusing on job hunting for a job in my own field that is way more challenging. I need something engaging and challenging to keep my attention, and I have all my time available to do some networking and studying for my CHRP designation exam. 🙂

    Oh! And more time for mid-week summits with my pal wheelie (or other bitchers on vacay/available!).

    Plus I’ll kinda owe molly some big time mommy-molly cuddle time after the next little while of time “cheating” on her with her cousins Ortega and Mooshi the cat, and bruce the dog.

    Yay for EI! 🙂

  15. PK I need you to FB me and tell me where the bread ladys shop is. Also we’ll have to get together over the summer for lunch. More of a baby friendly atmosphere instead of drinks on a patio. 🙂
    Zuke is this post about you? Or you making fun? Either way go with how you feel if its mutual OP.

  17. Oh and yes, I will definitely stop in to the shop with coffee, painey! How do you like yours?

    Zuke, I keep falling for gay men so you’re not the only one who’s all LOLWTFBBQ when it comes to that stuffz.

    Anyway, it’s back to packing for PK… I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t leave everything to the last minute 😉

  20. I always found sexuality to be an expression of attraction to a person, irregardless of what that person may have for a body.
