Q = Query
R = Rejection
RQ = Revenge Query, which you send to a different agent immediately after an R
PRQ = Pre emptive Revenge Query, which you send when you have a feeling your latest Q is about to get Rd.
SNI - Shiny New Idea (usually hits when you're in the middle of a WIP)
Pork Chop / Pock Chop / Sorry, mike = warning that you're about to say something risqué
Fruitcake = warning that you're about to make a potentially risque religious joke
Nicorn – Purgatory term for Speshul Snowflake
Suck Lime Green Donkey Balls / LGDB = what Rs of any stripe do, but especially form Rs on requested material
Faux-Suckitude Doldrums = the slump we all get into when we're stuck or when we've gotten a bunch of Rs. "Faux" being the key: we do NOT suck!
The Rat Rule: No teasing unless you are repping

For just a few more moments, the new thread is still at only one page.

It looks so cute, all tiny and dressed up in... hey! Who put the G-string on the thread? And why is there painfully loud music playing? Ew, glitter!

morn' purgs.

most of you remember sweetboy, whose owner, my neigh, passed. most remember his living conditions. i've started day-fostering him in my house after i witnessed him having a violent seizure which lasted over 10 min. it was this or let him suffer out in the cold or sometimes the neigh stuck the big boy in a crate in the garage for 12 hr days. no outside communication, light etc. so it is a mess here, i have my two pups in the mudroom, and cats in basement, and sweetboy a 100lb plus lab in gated area of kitchen. the neigh admits she is scared of dogs, ignorant of them,and tis true the hubs bought the dog knowing this. so since the hubs death, sweetboy has just 'existed'. we cannot keep the boy. =(

eta; we just found out daugh got a very hefty scholarship for graduate school. which i shall now wait and see which major appliance breaks down. =)

*slumps in*

Well I did it. I stood up for myself and declared that LMP would bully me no longer. I documented everything and sent it in email form to the Big Boss. Then we had a meeting where we went over everything. To her credit she looked pissed.

So she waits a bit and then pulls LMP into a meeting. LMP came out looking seriously pissed and has been having furious whispered conversations with her posse ever since...

I think in trying to make things better, I've just made them a lot worse.

I just feel so defeated I want to cry.
