Okay....

So, I just got the call telling me they want me back at AQ starting Monday. At my old pay rate even. (the current position is starting at a lower pay rate)

Unless I'm offered the repair shop job between now and 459 tomorrow afternoon, I'm going back to the old office.


And now...I breathe.

(no subject)

Sooooo tempted right now to go out and get fuschia hair dye and dye my hair again, because i kinda miss having fuschia hair and I now know that no matter what, I have a job with an employer that just doesn't give a rip if I have fuschia hair or somethign normal.

What Do You Think This Headline Refers To?

"Umpire Hair is ruled out of Trophy"


It showed up at the top of my Gmail page and I figured they were talking about some sort of trophy for umpires and deciding to nix a particular hairdo for the little plastic umpire that would sit on top.

...turns out that Hair is the name of the umpire, and trophy refers to a Cricket championship.

huh.

This Bill Just Passed In The House.

In General- Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a court shall not award reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys to the prevailing party on a claim of injury consisting of the violation of a prohibition in the Constitution against the establishment of religion brought against the United States or any agency or any official of the United States acting in his or her official capacity in any court having jurisdiction over such claim, and the remedies with respect to such a claim shall be limited to injunctive and declaratory relief.


So in essence, if you file a lawsuit due to percieved first ammendment violations, and you win, you can't collect legal fees.
