Don't think I haven't tried. She thinks the money should be given to people so they can pay for their own kids' education. Because it's being wasted by the schools that are "crippled by unions". Also, students who have "given up" on school shouldn't be required to go, because education is a priviledge and not a right.

Aileann, skip the cluestick and go right to the clue by four. I can't believe that there are people in the world who actually think that way.

Cashmere, Olivia is just so darn cute.

How will you celebrate Farscape day?

Well, considering that it got up to about 90 in my office yesterday and it's supposed to be even hotter out today and, thus, will be hotter in here, I think I'll just probably celebrate with a case of Sebacean Heat Delirium.

How will you celebrate Farscape day?

Thinking about Ben Browder's ass in leather pants.

Every day is Farscape Day!

Crime, poverty, etc. nearly all of societies ills can be cured by it. We need more of it. We should pay for it. Schools should be cathedrals and teachers treated like rock stars.

Gronklies. Em is home today. Had to have Joe come home from work since I am but a lowly temp for now and have no sick days and we can't afford for me to lose a day of work. I hate the bi-polarness that accompanies children's colds. "I'm happy! Let's play! PLAY PLAY PLAY!...Maybe not so much play...nope, not feeling the play anymore...I'm cranky! I'm bored! I know, I'll be a brat! BRAT BRAT BRAT!! TANTRUM TANTRUM TANTRUM!!! SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAM!!...Oooh, nap. That sounds good. NAP NAP NAP!!!"

Good lord. It's like living with my mother all over again.

since I am but a lowly temp for now and have no sick days and we can't afford for me to lose a day of work.

OH NOES! Shit, Aimee, that sucks. When do you start getting benefits and sick time and vacation and all that?

I start getting benefits today. I'm not sure when I go permanent, prolly within te next couple of weeks. They are pretty relaxed about sick days, from what my co-worker who has been here for three years told me. Vacation? Yeah, I found out yesterday I'll get ONE week after a year and two weeks after THREE years.

Bleargh.

At least I get paid weekly now.

Vacation? Yeah, I found out yesterday I'll get ONE week after a year and two weeks after THREE years.

UGH. I'm sorry. They didn't tell you that when they offered the job?

Nope. My fault on that, I didn't really ask. Since two weeks is pretty much the norm, I didn't even think about it.

Oh! Fay, how did fandom bring you to Jim's Big Ego? I have a much-treasured download of "Math Prof Rock Star" but can't remember how I heard of it in the first place. Though it could have been searching iTunes for songs with "Math" in the titles

The Clucking Belles' most excellent SGA Rodneycentric vid Stress.

I am, however, entirely smitten with the notion of Math Prof Rock Star now. Oh yes.
