I am drinking Bad Office Coffee (tm). I decided against calling in "sick" today.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I was taught "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally."
AAAAHHHHHH!!!! (GRE prep flashback.)
Speaking of the GREs, I got my official scores back, with the written part graded. I got 5.0 out of 6, graded in half steps. Is it dumb to be vaguely disappointed with a basically good grade?
Also, timelies.

Polter, I think you're still jetlagged.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
So, at a meeting this morning I volunteered to help with a huge floorset in either Massachusetts or New Hampshire. After I did, I thought "Why did I do that?". I am going to blame it on lack of caffiene. But at least it gets me out of my store. And they will get me a hotel, and pay me way more for mileage than I will use, so I can put the extra in my "Save for F2F" bucket.
ETA: Woohoo! P-C's drugging me!!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Is it dumb to be vaguely disappointed with a basically good grade?
I've been doing it my whole life. Except in the last few years when I lowered my expectations because I started sucking.

Val--that sounds like homework I should be doing! I need to take that up with my therapist on my next appt. Also the diary cards.
They're great, askye. They've been really helpful for me. My therapist and I once spent two hours disecting one of the chain analysis (what's the plural of that? I can't seem to get it right). We figured out stuff that we never would have without it.

Nope. Not dumb at all. Remember my presentation for my Numbers class? I got an A, but 9.5 out of 10 points. I wanted to know where that .5 went. I think it's normal. Either that or a whole bunch of us are completely crazy.
I've got my hair dye now. I think I've decided to wait to dye it till tomorrow, though. I don't want to smell all dyish when I go to get my hair cut. It's one thing if the stylist knows that you dye your own hair. I think it's a total nother thing to do it the same day, before your appointment.
