I'm super grouchy today.
It is hormone related so I have an excuse.

I can't speak for everyone, but I think the only side effect was an extreme feeling of fullness. Maybe a little food bloat. Other than that it was fairly uneventful. 
New stuff in my shop and a brand-spanking new journal entry on My Site.

try some temp agencies, ive had nothing but luck with them over the years.
So. My apartment building caught fire.
I got up this morning and was standing in front of the mirror getting ready to wash my face when I heard the fire alarm. devilducky and I keep our bedroom door closed which means the alarm is barely audible from there. We've had a couple of false alarms here recently. Evidentially this is because people have been airing...

So scary! I'm glad you two and the kitty are okay.

Oh fuck. Back in 89 or 90 I had an apartment in NJ and the apartment on one side of me burned out and on the other side it was flooded, but mine only suffered from picking up a smoky odour.
Glad you're all right and that your stuff is, too.

More than well-prepared ... top of the class!!
For serious, though ... you seem to have handled your own little litany of medical misadventures extremely well. I think you'd make a kickass nurse.

I'm stretching my ears and when I stretched them from 8G to 4G the left ear tore a little and got infected. It oozed pus for a couple of days and then was fine (hooray, sea salt soaks!). I stretched them from 4G to 2G and the left one is already fine, has accepted this new gauge like a Champion of Ears but last night...

Ouch. That's sounds so painful. Hope they get better soon.
I am applying to a shitload of jobs at Monster.com and one of them was a receptionist position at a pet hospital. Right after that I applied for a receptionist position for Great Clips corporate office and didn't realize that the changes I had made to my stock cover letter carried over from my animal hospital application so I applied to the Great Clips position...

That'd be so awesome if they called you back . . . .

I'm doing jury duty.
It is super boring.
ALSO: I got a call while waiting in the jury gallery yesterday from my temp agency. The contract I was on has been terminated. So I don't have a job to go back to once jury duty is over! WEEEEE!

OOF. Sorry to hear about that.
As for the jury duty, I was summoned once 3 years back or so. Sat around for 4 hours on hard-ass wood chairs to not end up getting picked. But @least I didn't have to go to work and got paid for the day anyway.
To answer your question, the bleeding was mostly staying put on the ink. It was after I got vertical that it started running. To be fair, I wasn't expecting much blood either.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. We'll see how it works out. She's bright, so that helps. I might have to tweak her taste in music a bit though.
HA! I'm lucky in that I never have to serve on a jury. I've been called up twice for jury duty since law school. What I do is I tell the jury administrators that I'm an attorney and there is no way in hell I won't be peremptorily (I'm not sure that is word.) dismissed once they start the voir dire. It's science. They usually chuckle and mention that, yes, lawyers and cops might as well just screw out of there.
I've put in my time on the temping circuit. That can be a real bitch. I'm sure you know this, but you've got to just bug the shit out of them: "Where is my next job? Why aren't you out getting me my next job right now?" And so on . . . .
So methinks a new set is in order! Get on that, will ya?

However, I am discovering other things about this that are blatantly discriminatory against me that I hadn't even thought of, so I think I have a pretty good case both for unemployment and a lawsuit.
Thanks so much for your advice!!!
