I am SO sleepy. I just want to crawl back into bed. I was coughing all night, which is so frustrating and disrupts the sleep so much.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Best programming advice that I ever got was that if you can state the problem in English, you're halfway to solving it. And this works for non-programming problems sometimes too.

I now need to find a detailed list of kosher foods.
You mean, already-prepared foods that are approved kosher? Because cooking/baking kosher in a non-kosher kitchen is really hard.
vw, I hope you feel better.
Theo, in many cases, I ask my students to find the stop where they stopped to understand. Not phrasing the question, just pointing where the problem began. Sometimes, even that helps.

Interesting thread title. What's the whale reference again?
Bev, we honest to god had a gay whale crosspost the other day. It seemed like it needed commemorating. (We added the dead part, just because.)

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

I must be in a perpetual halfway state and hit the wall there. Being able to state the problem doesn't help--from that point either I can code it without much effort, or I'm back to the diagramming stage.
However, coming to Buffistas and phrasing a question in the posting box, reading it, and then picking out the identifying words for a google search--that's answered more questions for me than it hasn't.
Headache. Up early. Unhappy. Nerve block on Friday. Every day I need it more.

Debet, re Colbert. I LOVED that! Good show, although I went to bed before the guest because it sounded like it was going to be painful.
However, Monday's episode, which I taped instead of watching when TDS turned out to be a re-run (all week it seems), was a keeper, so I'm psyched I taped it. The special Repor T on religion was the best whole show that SC has done yet. I don't think there was a bit that didn't work, and it was easily one of the best interview segments he's done.

I made it to school. Now I'm waiting for my tutoring student and cramming for my exam that's at 9:30. It's gonna be a long day.

vw, in what subject is the exam? Either way, good luck with it.
