'Time Bomb'
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.
Emily, are you watching the DVDs? If so, is there commentary and stuff?
I am watchin the DVDs from Netflix. It doesn't look like there's commentary, but it's hard to tell, since I only get a list of the bonus materials which can be accessed on another disc. Gee, thanks.
Now I'm reading the message boards discussing 20/20's "Stupid in America: How Lack of Choice Cheats Our Kids Out of a Good Education," which is to say, once again, I'm watching every person with a computer and an opinion spout off about What's Wrong With Schools Today, and every teacher who made the tragic mistake of watching it responding. Someone stop me, please!
DELAYED FLIGHT!
Well, stormy, right? I'd also imagine you had a bumpy flight back.
Robin, are you around this weekend? Perchance do you have Monday off?
Henh. I got an invitation to interview for DoDD schools. Which tickles me. I know they have special recruitment categories that I don't normally fit and then special recruitment. I fall under special recruitment, I guess.
DoDD?
My summer job wants to charge (as part of my housing) a $6.25 fee per day for each pet. NON-REFUNDABLE. Is this a common thing? I'm fine with the standard (refundable) deposit, but this is absurd. Keep in mind that the cheapest housing available (4 small bedrooms w/ a shared bath in a non-insulated cabin) is $6.75 per day for a person.
Non-refundable deposits for an apartment I've seen, but that's kind of extreme. And having just done the math in my head, by extreme I mean insane.
That's pretty much insano, yes.
It's supposed to be 60 here today. On Monday, the weather channel is predicting we'll see 16. I'm experiencing cold-shock in advance.
Also my cat is insisting on rubbies in the most adorable way, and then laying there purring loudly with just the tip of his pink tongue showing. And if I stop, quick grabbing my hand with his paws to let me know that I haven't fulfilled his needs.
A cat would have to keep pretty busy to do $6.25 worth of damage in the average day - especially considering that they're asleep for 20 hours of it.
What do you think, aurelia, are they up to the challenge?
I was nursing a migraine, Allyson. Can I still help?
