I'm not sure how a car could get there without going through either several concrete posts or several flights of stairs.

I know. I've been trying to visualize it. Maybe they came up between the Student Union and Davis Library. I could have sworn there used to be steel and concrete bike racks there, but maybe they got moved when the renovated some of the buildings.

Ugh. Parental whine:

Daycare called. Franny has some bug bites, and now they want me to take her home and have a doctor send a notice verifying that she doesn't have chicken pox. Grr. Okay, yes, I understand their POV so I'm doing it, but the doctor has already checked her and diagnosed it as bites. Now I need ANOTHER doctor to look at her? Annoying.

Also, this means I'll have her with me this afternoon and consequently won't get my grading done.

Can you have the first doctor's office fax the school a note to that effect?

msbelle, EAT IT!! where IT = anything local and edible

I never put it past state leges to pass stupid laws. I'm from Louisiana and I live in Texas.

Apparently my mind is idle and still in vacationland. My brain has decided-while refusing to do anything resembling work- that what it really really wants is 1) A study to see if the most popular kids in school have last names usually ending in the first 8 letters of the alphabet and 2) A musical about the UAE port issue with Michael Jackson as a villianous mastermind. My brain needs booze.

am now eating. much better.

yay.

spam subject line: the cervix may legitimate

I don't even want to know about the content of that spam.

So mail is slowly trickling in. Erratically. I get something from 45 minutes ago. Then something from 12 hours ago. Things sent seconds apart from the same person appear 4 hours apart. Not to mention my call software is getting nothing, while the mailing list it's on is still managing to distribute it to me. It's a little maddening.
