Oh Cash, what a relief. Yay on potential new job, too!
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

[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.

Hey. New board.
Oh shit, I just remembered that some friends of mine were doing their birthright trip sometime in the near vicinity of now, and I completely forgot.
Oof. Hope they're okay.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I recently discovered that I have a friend who was in Beirut for the last two months. She's safe in the mountains right now, thank goodness.

And damn, Emily, I wish you'd moved to Kansas City. We desperately need to hire a math teacher.

Jewish organizations pay for Jewish kids to go to Israel for a week (or two, maybe)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I went on a birthright trip last summer. There is very heavy security -- trip leaders are in constant contact with a central base, every road is checked before the bus goes on it, and they'll reroute things on the spot if there looks like any potential danger.

Ten days.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Um. Why?
I mean, free holidays are always nice, of course, but - not sure I quite understand this.

Fay, I am guessing it is sort of a roots/religion thing.

I was planning on going running tonight, but it's humid enough that I'm pretty sure any sort of exercise will give me an asthma attack. Feh. Staying inside in the air conditioning and reading, instead.
Also, I'm discovering that I really like teaching. I like it much better here, when I'm teaching kids, than I do at school, when I'm teaching college students. Not sure where this is leading me; just musing, for now.
