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

Tom Scola was in my dream last night. All I remember is that I told him he was crazy.

Crazy like a FOX! A very cute fox, that is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am SO GLAD I didn't start my paper then!

It could be a week or so out.

Man, I'm going to get a crap evaluation for 2005, but there you go. I could still make most of my objectives.

However, I told her I had tried to be engaged, she smacked me down, so I stopped trying. And that if she doesn't make her expectations clear, I'm not going to be accurate in meeting them.

She thinks I'm a clever little con artist, and really wants to know why I don't con people more.

Monday and Tuesday - ita.

Twice? Was I good? Did I kick people?

Sixty more messages to go. Or rather less than.

Are they not making minis anymore?

Also, I MUST finish grading and am not so inclined.

They're to be replaced with Nanos, I think.

I think the Nano may have replaced them, Kat.

Verizon just told me that they have the Razr now, and will give me $100 off.

Bastards.

Gleebl. Meant to ask - how is Verizon's coverage in the Bay Area? I've been happy w/their customer service, so I'd like to stay with them.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Ooooooooooooooooooh.

yeah, then they tried to tell me that I couldn't use my $100 phone credit as well. WHATEVER.

It's pretty good, Juliana. I still have my 323 number, and they were nice about letting me keep it, and the only place I have had a signal problem is in my office, but I think that's the building's fault.

You know what's not a cute way to deal with your project manager? "Well, if you know so much about it, why don't you write it?"

I think the appropriate response here is "Because if I were going to do your job in addition to my own, I'd also be making your salary in addition to my own."
