Nora, any weekend you want to meet up for dim sum, let me know! That would totally rock!
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Odds I'll ever live in a FreshDirect "preferred" building? Somewhere between slim and none. Ah well.
I hope vw's test is going well. Steph's too, for that matter.

I had Italian food last night and it was awesome.
Ah, so you went to the place you were hoping to go to? Good to know. I heard it was good, and very intimate in terms of space.
Salem is a wasteland for Chinese, in my experience. I haven't found a good place yet. There is an OK buffet at the Swampscott Mall if I'm really jonesing, but I've heard horrid things about Fantasy Island (as in it's Aku Aku bad). Maybe there's someting in Beverly.

Bryant Varney at NMU makes replica buildings made entirely out of Jenga blocks, without any glue. Very cool.

ooh, once I get The Research Paper that Eats All My Weekends Starting With My Bottom, I will organize a dim sum outing! (after April 10) (OMG, my paper is due like in a month) (OMGOMGOMG)
Frank, have you been to Kowloon in Saugus?
Also, have you gone to the Thai place in the sad Salem mall place?
And, yes, we went to Marco, and it was SO AWESOME.

Nora, what's the research paper about?
I must have been not-catching-up for way too long. I had no idea that actually reading posts could make me hungry.

It's a comparison of the status of women professors in a global context, Nilly.
I don't know what countries yet. Or exactly what I'll be comparing. I *do*, however, have a stack of books to start my research and have conquered my university library fear! And now have geeky university library awe. I will be going to the university library where I work, today, for a book, and it's bigger then Boston College's (where I go to school).
And, they have a Women's Studies Reading Room! (my uni) Who knew?

You're Willow!
The research sounds interesting. Since you don't know what the focus would be, there's no point in asking whether it's women professors in specific subjects, or in general, right? So I won't ask.
