Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Jess posted it here. It's from overheardintheoffice.com, I think.

I can totally imagine somebody saying this. Even in Hebrew, because we use the English words for "shell" and "script".

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hec, why aren't you sleeping?

Who can say? The brain is a mysterious thing.

When I'm eating lunch, none of the West Coasters should be awake.

I concur. Maybe nobody will be at work today and I can sit in my office with the lights dim and chug coffee.

Good morning, Nilly, Tom, Theo and brenda.

I mailed my book contract off yesterday. Now is the time for Sprockets to dance.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Hi everyone.

My plans for today are studying. And more studying. And some grading, and typing up a quiz.

I set the date for my mock specialty exam. It's to determine whether I'm actually as ready to take the specialty exam as I think I am. March 1. Eek.

I mailed my book contract off yesterday

Oh, that's right! I knew there was something I needed to tell you: congratulations on the contract for a new book!

A person who is awake way before the time they should get up, has to do something fun in that duration. There should be a rule or something.

[Edited to wave at Hil and wish her good luck with her studyings.]

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Allyson, you will look terrific - and even more intelligent - in your glasses.

Trudy, all my sympathy for your losses.

Cash, congratulations on Olivia Rose.

And from the link to Firefly pictures, did anyone go ahead and see this?

Hi Nilly!

Hec, what are you doing up so early?

Good week for Buffistas in the publishing world. Crazy! (I think Susan W. found an agent this week as well as the amazing David and Allyson news.)

Our wings are not tired.

Oh! A flurry of activity. I looked a while ago and it was so quiet I did some work.

Busy day, as usual. Still have one more to bring to school. Then work time. Have to interview a person but I think I want to hire the person I interviewed yesterday. Then more work. Pick up the kids. Clean Bobby's bathroom because while Perkins might not mind bathing with GI Joes, she might not like the boy scum. Then basketball practice at 6 and soccer practice at 7. Then picking up Perkins in Miami! So the busy day ends well.

I think coffee might be a good plan.

I set the date for my mock specialty exam.

Mock exams can be reassuring.

Hi All! Bye All! Have to go make the out the door push. Bobby and I had french toast for breakfast and Brendon noticed the remains so I have to make some more now.

Toddson! It's been forever since I posted with you! How are you doing?

I think Susan W. found an agent this week

Wow, that's wonderful! Are you in touch with her? Could you send her my congratulations?

Hi, Laura! Bye, Laura!

Will do, Nilly.
