Go Connie!

Talking Victoria and gifts, this site talks about Christmas, in particular, bronzes (with hideouts?), and bags worked by the giver. [link]

but the teaching, she is OVER!

Yay!

I studied all day today. Well, except for the part of the day that I spent daydreaming about cool places I could go work once I get my degree. Then getting back to reality with remembering how many of those places are places where I don't speak the language well enough to teach in it (pretty much anywhere that doesn't speak English fits into this category, unless I can really improve my French in the next few years) or places where the academic politics bother me enough that I'm not sure I'd be comfortable there (UK). Then I started wondering how many English-language universities there are in various cool-sounding countries. Then I realized that I'd spent half an hour on this, and got back to actually studying.

So that was my day. Six more days until my exam.

Damn, Connie.

I was kind of thinking that too, Sparky... But once I go through the trouble of burning calories, it's usually enough to talk me out of consuming unhealthy calories. For a little while, anyway.

Burning calories = still a win for you, but not a win for Ben & Jerry's stockholders.

Speaking of calorie burning, my yoga class got bumped from it's room, so now the teacher is thinking we will have it outside if the sun stays out. As soon as she sent that update, high clouds started appearing. Drat.

Connie, I totally understand where you're coming from but I guess I'm having difficulty understanding why pulling his manager into it was necessary. If the clerk was a teenager, maybe I'd go over his head but I'd think cluesticking directly to the clerk is where I'd start.

I don't know - jobs and someone's income are something I try not to screw up for people.

Yes, what different people consider to be a joke includes some very thin lines and I get that. I do. I just wonder if an offhand "joke" is worth someone's job.

I would give just about anything to be able to tour Balmoral Castle.

You know, someone on my flist just said it was really touristy and kind of over-rated. But it would still be really cool to see. Have you been to England, Aimee?

Have you been to England, Aimee?

I've never been anywhere.

But you live in one of the most amazing cities in this country.

True. Something tells me that the stockholders will be ok though. If I have to buy all new clothes due to my ice cream addiction, however, I won't be able to pay my mortgage.

Drat indeed!

Ok! Off to burn calories!
