Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, god, our guest speaker has a Powerpoint presentation.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Alibelle! being here is better than building a bust, but playing in ceramic goo does sound fun.

msbelle! Being here is fun, and I'll be spending many, many, many hours with the bust to be. Tomorrow. Saturday. Sunday. Monday. Wednesday. Next Thursday. Etc.

I'm actually kind of scared about how much I am absolutely LOVING my semester right now. Despite my crap day in ceramics yesterday, I really, really enjoy it. I'm loving learning to play the piano. And I absolutely adore all this dancing. I don't know what I'm going to do when I suddenly won't be able to do all these things anymore. The dancing I can probably continue, and maybe the piano stuff, maybe, but the ceramics thing, at least, will be extremely difficult to do. It's a very expensive hobby.

If I only had a brain...

Sabotage the projector, Dana. It's your only hope.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

In the last six months I've spent more time writing lengthy memos explaining the same ten procedures to this person than I've spent explaining them to the previous EIGHT new people in the previous DECADE.

Ack. There's always people that want to immediately make a "stamp" on their new workplace.

We had a surgeon who after being here only a week wanted to go out and buy a new clinical system for the surgery department because she didn't like the one that we were already using company-wide and that interfaced with every other system we use. Even explaning that there was already a project underway to eventually replace that system would placate her. She just couldn't understand why she couldn't just purchase the same system her old hospital used and install it.

Always Anti-fascist!

Dr. Pesty! Ha ha ha. I used to do that all the time till I had to explain to Clueless ExRoommate that the point of a Secret Mean Nickname was not to share with your victim.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I used to do that all the time till I had to explain to Clueless ExRoommate that the point of a Secret Mean Nickname was not to share with your victim.

Ha! A woman I know kind of got caught up in that recently. Kind of. In this circle of acquaintances, there is a brother and sister duo who are practically identical. So Certain People took to calling them "HisName" and "ShisName." (like She-HisName, get it?) So, at this party, the original woman said to the sister, "So, is ShisName coming?" The sister was all, "Um, HisName is...."

OK, this is not nearly as funny without knowing all the people.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

so I can leave if someone was supposed to be here at 6:30, right? Even running late, this is too late.

no call, no message. people suck.

Meanwhile I was over 2 hours late getting a document to someone, so I suck too.
