But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Staying non-homicidal is pretty important.

To that end, I think I need to grab dessert from the caf. Worked through lunch, see, because I have to leave early for a doctor's appointment. I did still take a small nap in my car to reduce the migraine of this morning.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Non-insan-o syllabus~ma for Nora.

ita, do you feel that krav balances out the negatives from your primary job? Or does it take more than that to bring you to a level where you can reasonably call yourself OK with life?

Mostly lurking...

Emily and I have been extremely productive. We now have boxes to begin the packing process, a new air conditioner for my room (YAYAYAYAY!), a new fabulous cell phone for Emily.

Oh, and I got underware with ladybugs on it! I loves them, I do!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I like non-homicidal ita.

Although it might be fun to hold her jacket and watch if she ever needs to go postal on anyone.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I just talked with my advisor. She brought up the topic of how bad some of the posts for the class had been and needed me to explain to her what the emoticons were. She is going to talk to some people about it, since they aren't all her students.

Your advisor needs a rubric for assessing posts.

No, really.

I believe that is up to the professor.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I get board wishes, phone calls, an asstastic haiku and my very own blues song? You folks are the best!

I have nothing to contribute to the crazy-job-hours discussion, being that my job is incredibly undemanding and I frequently sulk and whine if forced to work past 5:05. The pay is crap, but it's worth it to just be able to leave at 5:00 without worrying about it (or work overtime, paid heftily, exactly and only when I choose to). But I am lazy like a thing that is lazy.

Also, completely and humbly in awe of the teachers here, who work the crazy hours and don't even get the crazy pay for it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

OK, off to class! I hope I don't cry when I see the syllabus.

Happy syllabus, Nora!!! And, strangely, while tonight is your first class, it is my LAST night of class. I have 2 lesson plans done and ready to turn in.

Thursday, I have to go, but only to turn in my final. Which I have about 1/3 completed.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

In conclusion, let's make out.

Hee. I love that I started a trend.

Kristin, that is so awesome, and I hope your friend gets to work at your school, because it will make the both of you very happy.

This site is wicked cool, and I am glad it exists.

I had a good lunch, but my stomach is all bajiggity. Not good.
