Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Happy birthday, Kathy!
That student email was hysterical. My favorite part:
...so much time was spent discussing the tiny details in the passages in the book and so if I learned anything it is how to read things in too much detail. I could have read books in too much detail on my own but that is not what I came to college to do...
Happy birthday, Kathy!
I'm wanting to start recording another Sci-Fi type TV show. Any good suggestions?
They were showing a bunch of Eureka episodes yesterday--that's a good one to watch. They'll probably have another marathon eventually.
Happy Birthday, Kathy!
Craxy students....
I love pulling out photos of my mom and casually saying, "Oh, she'll be 68 this year," and seeing the shocked looks on people's faces. She looks more she's in her early 50s.
S's mom is like this. She's almost 70, but you'd never know it. She looks early fifties, at the oldest.
And I keep seeing your name and thinking it's "good enough". Intentional?
Not intentional, I was the name of a dog who I used to have. The dog was named after Boris Godunov
My mom is really young looking, too. She's 54 but could totally pass for 10-15 years younger. She's also really pretty. All my guy friends in high school were into my mom, which was gross but in retrospect, go Mom!
My sister's been losing weight as well, and the skinnier she gets, the more she resembles Mom! We've always known that she inherited a lot of Mom's features, while I got Dad's, but as her face thins down, it's really remarkable. I called her to tell her so after she sent me pictures of her in her newly-purchased wedding gown, and she thought that Mom had put me up to it. Apparently, when her best friend came out to visit a few weeks ago, the friend's parents came up from Phoenix for dinner and to see my sister for the first time in a few years, and the first thing the mother said when she saw Kris was "My God, you look just like your mom!!" Later in the conversation, she started blathering like Mom does occasionally, and I called her on it by telling her she's starting to sound like Mom, too. I swear, I could hear her sticking her tongue out at me.
My cousin Sally was telling her 15-year-old daughter about my surgery. And her daughter asked about me having kids. Sally said, well, she was really too old to have kids be an issue. Julia said she didn't think so and Sally said, "Julia, Robin is 10 years older than I am." At which point Julia looked at her mom and said "Get out of town! She is not older than you!" I figure if teenagers think you are a decade younger than you actually are, you are doing okay.
Even 15 year olds validate the HOTTNESS of Scrappy.
