[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Mostly I'm going to ignore him, loudly, because there's no real way to stop him. He's friendly with a number of instructors, and there's no way he'll keep his mouth shut.

What is even happening?

vw, I have two books due back to the library in November.

Of 2005.

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

Okay, one more thing for la bug (even though I know you've already gone off to do copying work -- this only nagged at me while I was at lunch).

Apparently Sabrina took them out of the desk drawer last week, because she noticed that they were all overdue, and seems she told several people to make sure I'd take care of it.

Huh?

No, really, huh?

Can you talk to her (and, hell, everybody) and ask that she notify you about things by email rather than asking someone else to remind you? While they are still your books, it sounds like the notifying got dropped somewhere along the line as well. I don't think it's at all out of line to ask your coworkers to work with how you receive information best, as long as it's something reasonable -- whether that's sending you an email, leaving a note, whatever. Not hoping that someone else will do the reminding, umm, sometime.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

My library has an online renewal option. You can even renew when the books are overdue and you end up not having to pay a fine. So, not only do I end up having overdue books, I cheat the library out of their fine money.

Guess where I'm going tonight?

Wicked!!! Whee!!!!

I have books from my public library which I took out over 4 years ago. I am not sure what I should do. But you are not alone, nor even aws bad as I am.

My library has an online renewal option.

So does ours, but I think not for ILL books.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

No problem, Cass.
Cookbook Buffistas rock like rocking things at 350 ° for 25 minutes. Or, you know, thanks.
I just view overdue library books as an opportunity to donate to the library.
Me too. It's my way of giving back to the system. I keep the books with less guilt and happily hand over the cash when I do return them knowing that my sloth helps bring other books there to live too.
dropping incendiary terms like quadraplegic. Sure, he says I'm at no more risk than your average joe of becoming one. But damage is already done in the listener's mind.
Like the bird flu could eventually turn into a pandemic! . Not that we're in danger of a pandemic! mind you. Just that if the pathogen mutates in about ten specific ways, a pandemic! is possible. Not that we want you to worry or anything... Because it's no more likely than any other bug evolving and wiping out people. No, really, don't worry any more than usual.

Grrrrr.

The status is NOT quo.

ita, grrrrr.

I'm worried that Kristin has drowned under all her grading - last heard from at essay #18!

I didn't so much drown as succumb. I gave up at #23 when it was nearly 3AM. I have to complete 24-62 today and tonight. After three hours of sleep, I dragged myself to work (or rather ND dragged me to work since I'm still reliant on him to get around until my car is fixed) and have been entering grades into my gradebook and getting my lessons ready for today and tomorrow. I have one class to teach this afternoon, but otherwise today is all about writing the rest of the narratives. I emailed my department head and explained the situation, and she agreed to let me hand them in late tomorrow given the circumstances of the last week. I spent nearly 30 hours grading and writing narratives between Friday and Monday, and I'm still not done. I'm so tired and drained that I could weep.
