Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Announcement: I left work 2 hours ago, and my husband is cooking me shrimp scampi for dinner.

Analysis: I'm jealous, and I don't even eat shrimp.

I saw a "Shalom Y'all" bumper sticker today, and thought especially of Nilly. Then I googled, and it's a documentary about being Jewish in the South. Makes sense, I suppose.

Co-worker is talking to another one about being busted for some mistake. She keeps dipping into conspiratorial whispers, which is the only reason I started eavesdropping. It was like a klaxon of "dirt here!"

Tulane Hillel has a "Shalom Y'all" sign over one of the doorways.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Working in a Jewish high school has me spouting random bits of badly pronounced Hebrew frequently. I still can't say the "ch" sound correctly. I sound like such a lame WASP when I try.

Also, hi.
