Man. I have had a headache all day today. Nothing makes it go away.
I just wanna go the fuck home.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[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.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Our wings are not tired.
Yay! Thanks for the update Kristin.

So, I just got a recommendation from a student with two different fonts and sizes. The rec is on photocopied letterhead (the student helpfully sent another seemingly legitimate rec, on letterhead with a color logo). The odd thing is that both sections refer to the student by name, so it's possible that it was the professor's screwup.

Can you contact the prof, Vortex? Because that's the sort of weird thing where it COULD be the professor is a bit flaky, or it could be a very badbad student. I feel like if you get/give a reference, it's not out of the question to be called and asked for more ("when you say that John is "TEH BEST STUDNET EVAH!", can you tell me more about your feelings?")

Oh, yeah, I've already called. Of course, it was 5PM, so there was no way in hell he was there.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
That's odd, Vortex.
I'm making gumbo z'herbes. My apartment smells all yummy.
I think I'm also going to make corn pone muffins and baked sweet potato fries. Should make a nice balanced meal, with enough leftovers for a few days.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Vortex, it's possible that the professor doing the rec decided for whatever reason to type and print the whole thing him/herself and just got it completely frelled up, because that's what they do with nominally simple administrative tasks all too frequently.
Not that I'm, uh, speaking from experience as assistant to a university professor or anything. Heaven forbid!
A hugely fabulous happy birthday to Laura, who deserves about a billion of them!

Hi, JZ! How is life treating you?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Dear Owen,
Ya little bugger. I don't know how you did it - secret messages or what have you - but Emeline spent most of the morning (after ripping off her Pull-Up) running from and Joe screaming, "NAKED! NAKED! NAKED! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"
Please to not encourage, ya goofy lil boy!
Love,
Aims

What is even happening?
Laura, I'm sorry your birthday plans ran aground (sorry). That was such a sweet idea on Brendon's behalf, though.
Cashmere, Blue Liv is adorable, but yikes she looks an awful lot like a kid in that photo.
