Buffy ,'Lessons'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
LJ, I actually like a salad with no lettuce. Because as it turns out? I don't really like lettuce all that much, and really not enough to buy it for myself.
Particularly because, in my own little learning quirk, I can learn things speedily and very well from a person which confound me in a book.
Maybe a couple of tutoring sessions would help you?
I can't bear the idea of spending $5 to ship $6 worth of merchandise.
Can you pretend that they raised the price to $9 but cut the shipping to $2?
All that time that I was bitching about doing my cow-orker's work while she was on leave? I was forgetting that I do all her fucking work while she's here, as well. Bah.

Just double-check that mute is in fact on....
Mute. Snark.
And IM.
Wow, midle school certainly has gotten more advanced since I was in it. Or last taught 8th graders, for that matter. Abstract algebra is, as I recall, hard. Differential Equations was a sophomore level course at my (science and engineering focussed) college.
Though after years of hearing people aske "When would you ever need to use Algebra?" and "What good are fractions, anyway?", maybe I'm just surprised that there are, in fact, math requirements.
Emily, can you hook up with someone else taking the exam and study together? SOmetimes you just need to explain it to someone else to remember what you know, if that makes sense.

Hmmm. Spossible. The question is, can I get my student loans to pay for it? Also, why won't my school post who's teaching classes? It hasn't been a problem before, but now it really is. I need to know, dammit!
In other very frustrating news, Netflix has added two Billy Connolly standup DVDs (I've been a sucker for him since "Small Blue Scottish Person," which must have been a special or something, since I can find no trace of it anywhere) but has no idea when they'll be available.
Hey!
Whew. My DSL got cut off on Wed., so I have been out of the loop since then. Fortunately, my temp jon has internet and they are encouraging me to use it "to keep from getting bored."
Sweet.
Jon got MARRIED?! Congratulations! I skipped (there were a 1000 messages) -- so can anyone give me the 411?

I could do that, except it would make the vegetable base tomatoes, and I don't actually like tomatoes that much. (I can just about tolerate them cut into small pieces and mixed with a bunch of other stuff. In big slices with just dressing, NSM.)
