Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Generally I teach at 8 on Mondays
Wow, that's an evil hour.
Theo! What if I motivate you to play with us online instead of cleaning? Will that count as helping or the other way around?
Now I'm starting to ponder it for during the summer...
Um, visit Israel. Right?
Heat kicked on at 8:30. It just got up to 63°. It's good to know the heat isn't broken and the cats won't freeze during the day, but the landlord isn't playing by the rules, dammit.
Happy birthday, Jon! Happy belated, Beverly!
I have no school today, either. I never thought I'd say this, but: I need a job. I'm booooored. Of course, I should also be spending much more time on my thesis and my Real Job search, but still.
aurelia, you should definitely report your landlord.
Happy President's Day everyone! I'm not at work! Woot!
And happy belated to Bev, and happy birthday to Jon!
Jesse, what's the subject of your thesis?
Um, visit Israel. Right?
I think I have too many things I want to do in the too little time I have off from school. (Oh, that reminds me, I wanted to look into Hebrew classes at the JCC. I want to get my Hebrew skills up to some level beyond "Can recognise the names of foods on restaurant signs, and occaisionally pick up bits and pieces of other peoples' conversations," which is where I was when I was in Israel last summer.)
Wow, that's an evil hour.
Yes it is. Nothing should require brainpower before 9 at the earliest.
I'll start by talking to the landlord. Maybe the threat of being reported will work.
Jesse, what's the subject of your thesis?
Well, it's not actually a traditional thesis, but that's easier to say. I'm doing a project for a client, a nonprofit social service agency, about client and program data collection and management. So I'm (trying to) survey other organizations about what they do, and look at some of the commercial products available, and the needs of the organization, and then I'll make some recommendations about what they should do.
Nothing should require brainpower before 9 at the earliest.
Especially on a Monday. My roommate just had to take an exam on 8:30 yesterday (Sunday is the Israeli Monday). That's just evil.
I want to get my Hebrew skills up to some level
Now I want to sit and chat with you in Hebrew.
Jesse, does it mean that your project/thesis will actually have some implementation, not just stay theoretical? Because that's great. Also, it reads like it demands a whole set of skills, so it looks like it would really put what you're learning into use, right? Go you.
