Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Just mentioned this in Bitches, thought I should put it here too. I have pics of the Wallybee! I've uploaded a couple of good ones, located here: [link]

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

Re: the most homophobic country in the world.

Yeah, we suck. Suck more than every other country? Debatable. But we do suck hard. I was told that there are countries that officially sanction murdering homosexuals (Egypt was cited), but I haven't done the fact checking.

I emailed in to work from home today, but I'm so freaking dizzy I've done little.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I can't argue with that analysis. Iraq, for example. Closer to home, there was recently an ugly incident -- with poor police response -- in St. Maarten.

[Edit: Hold on. I'm trying to get a link to the Iraq story. BBC is slow suddenly.]

Fred, your links are messed up.

Let me try something else.

ETA: Hm. Computer not cooperating.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Slut for the birth year.

Me too! Whee!

OK. Here's something on St. Maarten.

BBC not cooperating, but here's a blog that discusses the BBC's story on Iraq.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Here's my conundrum: My university is apparently one of the member universities whose students can attend an education career fair on Thursday. However, I have heard nothing at all about this, which is strange, given -- hello! Education student! So I see that Career Services apparently held a seminar, required for people attending the career fair, in early April (at times I wouldn't have been able to attend anyway, because, as an education student in my final semester -- and thus, it seems to me, exactly the target audience -- I'm student teaching during the day). Apparently in order to register for this fair I should have gotten a registration packet from them.

Is it worth kicking up a fuss and asking if I can get this packet & stuff now? I suppose for local jobs I don't really need a fair, just a boatload of resumes and stamps. Still, this is pretty annoying.
