This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

In slightly happier news, I just finished a very delicious tri-tip steak sandwich with au jus that my gf brought home for me from yesterday's craft services table.

Don't have the link handy, but the feds turned down the latest Schaivo appeal.

Sean, that's very sweet of her, considering that she is a vegetarian.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

There is a joke here involving "only meat" and "her man" but my head hurts too much to solidify it at the moment.

She's actually a pescavegetarian, like JZ, but it is very sweet of her. She's even offered to cook any meat I bring over, as she does know how to cook meat, she just doesn't do it for herself.

SO DISAPPOINTED!

If I only had a brain...

I'm sorry, Plei.

Mostly lurking...

Thank you everyone for the very nice things you said about me. I needed that today. It was nice to come home to.

Plei, I wish I had something to offer other than been-there-done-that-about-to-do-it-again-ness, but sadly I don't. I know it's terrifying, though, and I do hope that you'll figure something out.

Yay for Emmett!

So, I'm having a shitty day...have a migraine, forced myself to classes, got a lower grade on my test than I had thought, sat through another class without saying a word 'cause I couldn't focus, and now I have to pull myself together to go out with the family. I'd cancel, but my dad already bought tickets...

Oh, and in even better news, my Mountain Tales prof pulled me aside after class today to talk about Deliverance, which we're starting on Monday. She wants me to think about whether or not I really want to participate in these few classes. She warned me about a few things in the movie, and now I'm seriously considering taking her up on the option of another assignment instead. I'm just not sure I'm up for this right now. But, on the other hand, I HATE HATE HATE the idea of opting out of part of the class. I'm totally stumped on this one. Anyone have any thoughts? Especially those who have seen the movie...

I can't even.

Did anyone see anything on the news about this afternoon being 112 hours long? Because that seems unfortunate to me.

Is there anyone you can borrow from, or untapped credit in the house, perhaps?

t attempts cheer Nope! And we're still paying off debt from the almost-year I was unemployed between when I was laid off in 2001 and started working again in 2002. Our house-buying timing, frankly, sucked ass. As we'd just bought, we didn't have any savings when I was laid off, AND we'd gone from a cheap apartment to having to make mortgage payments. The whole economy went BOOM! right after we closed, and locally, is only now sort of showing signs of recovery.

Something usually comes through. I'm just feeling very negative about it today.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Anyone have any thoughts? Especially those who have seen the movie...

I'd avoid the movie. I have avoided the movie, because I know it will set off all sorts of things for me. There's no shame in saying that a part of your course will Not Be Good for you, especially when you have an opt-out.
