Otherwise I can't make sense of the disconnect between past performance and current results.
Susan, I wonder also if it's beacuse it's August. I find that job searches (especially in academia) are slower because several people have to review resumes, etc., and they are usually on vacation on different weeks.
God, everything happens so slowly in academia.
Cindy- OMGWTF. I am glad that Chris is OK. I hope you are OK soon. Hopefully talking to the doctor will help.
You do? All right, that's just neat. Although 'yeself' is just funny. Would it be thine self?
Yeah, or thyself. Although round here people pronounce it "thi' sen", nowadays.
...it strikes me that ye is probably supposed to be thee, isn't it? The
y
is supposed to be the Anglo Saxon lettor thorn, pronounced "th". As in "Ye Olde Shoppe". Huh.

Ye Olde... is definitely "the," but ye as in "I give ye Sean Bean" is, IIRC, the plural of you or thee.
Ye Olde Thisse and Thatte gets up my nose so fucking bad -- thanks so much for reminding me about it, Fay, since now I can remember to include it in the Fake Old English Shitte People Need to STOP DOING rant portion of the dialect class this weekend.
Now I want to come across a store called Fake Olde English Shitte.
Stephanie! How are you? How is the beautiful Ellie? Haven't posted with you for a while, it seems...
Many Happy Returns of the Day, Aimee!

Blister-and-migraine begones to Raq, Betsy, ita, and anybody else what needs them. Blister and knee-pain begones to Jessica.
A sharp rap or several with the cluestick for the doctor's staffers, Cindy. How's the boy this morning?
Car in shop for brakes, struts, alignment. $1,200. Meep. We shopped around, it's the best price, and may actually come in lower, and we budgeted for this because the car is worth the investment, but still, meep.
Nora, your weekend do sounds like everybody there had a fabulous time, by which I'm not a bit surprised. A little jealous, but no surprise.
In other news, I think I'ma take a wee nap. To bed by 2:30 this AM, up at 3:50 till 4:30, up at 7:30 to take car in. What day is it?
