It is from Kosh on B5, whom I miss now that he is dead. If I were ever president, I'd want Kosh for my press secretary.

Yeah, every president needs a large alien in an encounter suit making cryptic pronouncements.

Oh, good, a broadcast source. I can use it with impunity, then.

The only Bab5 quote I know is "No boom today. Boom tomorrow. There's always a boom tomorrow." Ah, Ivanava.

Oh, my! What a day it's been so far. The gist? My idea for my senior honors thesis has not only been approved, but my advisor thinks that there will be a fight over who sponsors the project. Also, I will probably get money from a scholarship fund to pay for my trip to Chicago at the end of the summer to interview my grandmother for said project.

Also, the coordinator of the honors program thinks I am the perfect replacement for a girl that is graduating this semester, so I may have a job!

Now, if only I have such an easy time over at the CCDE office. I'm not holding my breath, though. These other things have just been too easy. There needs to be a karmic balance at some point.

Please do tell more about this

I actually don't really know the details. It's being hosted/run/taught(?) by a woman I kinda know, who's quite outrageous. I'm sure it'll be interesting. But I'm not sure I really want to go because god only knows who the OTHER people will be.

Yay Baby Isaac!

Good luck VW and Anne.

I am making a middle-of-the-day post because I am not at work, because I feel like CRAP. However, I have to go to work to get some stuff for a trip I'm going on tomorrow. Grrr. So I'm showered and dressed, and sitting here not wanting to go at all. But I'm afraid once I get there, I won't be able to pull off the "I'm so crappy that I just want to find my stuff and leave" and will get sucked into doing other things.

These other things have just been too easy. There needs to be a karmic balance at some point.

Honey, I suspect you've paid in advance for this easiness. Very good news!

Great news, vw!

And, um, well, -t already said it better than I can.

Oh for the love of...

My coworker/assistant sent out a document with the heading "Venereal Information." (Should have been "general".)

Thank dog it went to a consultant, not a client, and to one particular consultant - one of about three I can think of who would react the way he did: left me a voicemail that's almost incoherent, he's laughing so hard.

Still.

{{meara}} I hope you can shoot in, do what you need, and shoot right back out.

I'm wishing I hadn't come to work today. I woke up with, what I thought, was a sinus headache. I'm now nauseated and light hurts me. Yep, migraine. I want to go home and lay down in the dark.
