I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

And now the fan responses are scaring me. TERRIFYING me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Happy birthday. Laura! Your posts are always full of vitality and intelligence and warmth and they never fail to make me happy I know you.

Oh dear. I just volunteered to meet with the review committee. I may not get picked but ... I should not be volunteering to participate in an outside review of a place where I hold a job I dislike....

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Happy Birthday Laura!

Well at least we'll have a back-up plan if some alien species comes here looking to communicate with whales and can't find them.

Never heard of them. Sorry.

On the subject of opinions about companies, 21st Century Insurance is quoting me $300 less than Geico, but I've never heard of them. Anyone have experience with them?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Happy birthday Laura!

I am too busy to be here. Really. I made a task list to try to stay on track this week and I have 5 urgent things due today. 5! and none of them are simple one step tasks. WAH!!!

Also, overslept, emailed in late. Was told late has to stop. No more Olympic watching for me, I must get to bed early since my body is craving extra sleep still. Double WAH!!

OH!! And Allyson. I do not see you the way you see you. also? have you seen people? I mean really. You look much more together and attractive than so many many people. And I am 35 and no boyfriend or kids and will likely not get married, most days that is ok in my head.
