I just got home from visiting Robin. I'm now sipping iced coffee and shooting dark looks at my taxes. In terms of "more interesting lives," I really have no leg to stand on considering I spent five days straight doing nothing but grading all day and all night last week.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[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.
Buff-Diving provides for many moments of "Huh, I wonder what we were talking about?" and at least a couple of "Huh, I wonder what I was talking about?" but none more so, at least at the moment, than this:
Emily: You know, if anyone's gonna make money off the fact that people make jokes about my weight and my blow-job technique? I get some of it. I don't think it's that much to ask.
What the... what?
HA! I ran into that quote the other day and had the same reaction. I was going to ask you about it, but I guess there's no point now, hmm?
I am without a clue.
Was there a time when the board was overrun with "Hey, that Emily sure can't control her weight, and she can't suck dick worth a damn either, heh heh" jokes, and someone was going to write a book about it?
Well, I guess I'd definitely have blocked it out if that were the case, but it seems unlikely, doesn't it?
A lot of times, I see the typical, "Context is for wimps," sentiment expressed in COMM before the quoted post, and I think, "No. Context is for posterity."
I suspect someone wrote a book about Monica Lewinsky, and that inspired your COMMed post, but I don't know.
I kind of love that none of us have a clue, though. It makes the quote even more endearing.
Oh, the humiliation. The #1 song on the day I was born was "Tammy" by Debbie Reynolds. The daughter is Michael Jackson "Rock with You" and the son is John Lennon "(Just Like)Starting Over." Can I have a do-over?
Emily, your students sound very creative, if not always right.
Sorry, I was napping. And reading Shadow of the Hegemon. But mostly napping.
Talking with my mother is exhausting. Fortunately most of the need for headdesking is out of the relationship.
Kristin was an excellent guest and brought me the best gift basket ever. One of my cats was DEEPLY in love with her, but she handled the adoration well.
