ChiKat - congratulations on the certification!
I spent yesterday hanging out with my Supernatural obsessed friend you know, watching her Supernatural dvds and now I'm hanging out and watching MY Supernatural dvds. Mine has the glitch in the season finale.
Today is the first day that my fluffy cat Tanuki has deigned to come hangout with me while I'm on the computer. She's been napping, purring and desultorily playing with the mouse. I've been reading and scrolling. Now, that I'm typing she is suddenly wideawake, sitting up and watching the magically appearing letters intently. It's very cute. (Ivan usually just sleeps when he hangs out with me while I'm on the computer.)
What could my contribution to Buffista Camp be? Furniture Refinishing 101; Is that an antique or did someone bash it with chains and do layers of bad painting?; Picture Framing on the Cheap; Late 19th Century American Literature, with a side course in why you should hate Henry James and love Henry Adams; Fun with Cake Frosting; and How to Talk to Engineers. I'd say Advanced Snark, but the Buffista kids will probably already have than down.
I have taught college students how to write, edit and layout publications; some communications seminars; and Shotokan karate. I often have to teach clients how to use their e-mail program.
I should be working. Can someone make me?
World Travelling with Felines, Relying Upon The Kindness of Strangers, Basic Thai, Negotiating with Cairo Taxi Drivers and Accessorising Above And Beyond The Call of Duty.
With that, one should be able to confront any number of crises.
My seminars: Slash for the Unsuspecting, How to Intimidate Doctors, Finding Shortcuts Through Hospitals, and Coping with Conservative Religious Fanatics that You Want to Stay Friends with.
Hmm. I suppose I can add Advanced Liquid Eyeliner Techniques with Jilli, Correct Bra Sizing, Cursing with Flair and Verve 101 and Resume and Cover Letter writing.
I am still drinking coffee, and aheming Eureka, which I have never seen, but am intrigued by now.
ita, I am all set up for intro to Krav next Saturday, and have gotten a girlfriend to go with me. While she was running early last fall, a naked man ran up to her and rubbed his penis on her. All she could manage was a "HffflttYYYEEEEECCCCHHHH!!!" and to dash off home rather quickly, so she's looking for a way to avoid the incoherent girlscreaming in the future.
Any ideas on what they might go through in the intro? I like to go forewarned into things. And, oh please, tell me it doesn't involve running. I'd rather eat my own toes than jog.
I can do (and have done, once for a class of 60) How To Speak Elizabethan English -- not specially useful but fun, and does manage to make some oddly metered lines, non-rhyming rhymes, and incomprehensible puns in Shakespeare suddenly make sense. Also, How To Thrift, Ross, And eBay Yourself Into A Vaguely Vintage Wardrobe On The Cheap.
Can I get Digging Big Holes 101 and Advanced Procrastination?
I don't think I've ever taught anything... I did coach 5th class hockey for a year. But I wasn't a very good coach.
Digging Big Holes 101
"I can't wait to tell all my friends, no one else has that big a hole."
Hmm. I think my seminars would have to be "How to Properly Run a D&D Game," "How to Prepare for a D&D Session," and "How to Work for ND."
