Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I'm really excited about the possibility of this grad school experience.

I was so excited when I saw Breadloaf, because we have Breadloaf here in Juneau, but alas, apparently ours is not one of the campuses for the degree. I guess we're special. pouts.

GAH. Went from the EDS site to a keloid site and HMOG, I need to remember that I have a medical squick and not Google anything that might trip that. Oy.

Don't go to netanatomy.com, ita. I thought it was going to have drawings or something. May plastic models. I was so, very wrong, and now understand that there was more to me deciding not to be a pediatrician than not being great at math or science.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Kristin, the grad school stuff sounds terrific!

Campuses (at which I will spend at least one summer each): Middlebury, VT (main campus); Santa Fe, NM; Asheville, NC; and Oxford, England!

If you want some mini-F2Fing give the NC Buffistae a heads up when the Asheville one's due. And I am so envious about the Oxford summer!

The status is NOT quo.

SO excited about Kristin's English programme. Yay for her having to study along with the rest of us...

Ha! Like I don't study all the time right now! Every time I teach a new book, I have to study my ass off about the history, culture, author, etc. in order to teach it. Seriously, I am so excited to only be responsible for my own work, I can't even tell you.

And thanks everyone! Now here's hoping I actually get IN.

Our wings are not tired.

Ha! Like I don't study all the time right now!

Yeah, I know, but now you can join the other side once again and be graded.

You'll get in. They want the best, don't they??

Why are you so stupid, stupid day?

Hee! That *was* me! Cookie for Lee, and I'm glad I was able to do something to bring a smile to your face, Kristin.

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

Ack! I forgot to send Robin lots of ~ma. I hope the fibroid issue is fixed in the least invasive way possible.

~ma for Robin, and puppy~ma for Bartleby, and calm~ma to Beej.

Let us know how he does, OK?

Awesome. I can't wait to be the gradee rather than the grader.

ETA: Oh Beej! I hope Bartlby is okay!

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I am now looking at the netanatomy site. Bodies are fascinating.

I'm not supposed to be here, as I'm supposed to be resting my eye. But there's only so much of that I can do at one time, as I bore easily. I'm listening to books on tape, but that makes me fall asleep enough to miss the story-line but not enough to actually sleep.

Much ~ma for Robin. My mom had the laparoscopic hysterectomy due to fibroids. She had a fairly long recovery, but she was pretty unhealthy at the time. I think she might have needed a transfusion from all her hemorrhaging too, but didn't get one.

Acceptance~ma for Kristin. Sounds like a really cool opportunity. Easy passage~ma to Bartleby; sounds like a really UNcool opportunity.

House~ma to Sue.
