Gud, I was playing catchup with bated breath yesterday. Did you manage to foil Leif & Emaryn's plans for world domination?

Congrats, vw!

Raise your hand if you think the Dean of Students is here today...

One of the 3 here is the division director. He's making sure I'm far more productive than he has any right to expect. Because there's a project that he wants to move, and he finally got to it when I asked yesterday (I know, silly me) whether he'd had a chance to review the letter I gave him 3 weeks ago.

Yay, vw!!!!!!!!! Woo and Hoo!!!!!

Looooong night at the ER last night - Z has kidney stones.

Oof, I am so sorry, j. And is it wrong and petty of me that I'm kinda glad Z has to pass some kidney stones??

Turns out they just had an empty paper towel roll (aka pirate telescope) that had somehow migrated to the basement, so nothing scary.

Joining ChiKat in the petty corner, but I'm sorry you had to go through that.

I fear I am equally petty. My first thought was, "Ooh. Painful. Good."

I'm also on the petty train, even though I can sympathize with how much pain he was in.

HOWEVER, on the brighter side, this will give him one last example of what a fantastic partner he's giving up. Someone who's selfless and giving and would have been there for him in his time of need. Next time, tough fucking luck.

J, you are beyond patient and kind. You've notched up some good karma, girl.

So why Emaryn's "Run!"? Part of her plan to bring on Daddy's early heart-attack?

And I went, "After what he's putting her through, juliana's still by his side for this? Moron doesn't seem to have a clue what he's giving up."

edit: It's a juliana's-oh-so-awesome x-post!

Don't know what was behind that.

Sure, you think that now. MacGyver's parents learned the hard way so that you don't have to. A single stick of gum and a tampon to go with that paper towel roll and suddenly "nothing scary" turns into "Aaaaaargh!"

This. /walking on eggshells

WindSparrow and Perkins, I made a double batch of the microwave fudge recipe. Instead of all vanilla extract, I added a little almond extract to it. Tastes pretty damn good to me (the bowl wasn't going to lick itself) but we'll see what the family says on the 25th. Thanks to you both!
