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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've got a long meeting at 11 today. But then I've got the afternoon free -- I'll probably go grocery shopping and cook some seitan. All very exciting.

My sister and BIL come to visit tomorrow & I cannot wait. They're getting in at 2 am... (no amount of hinting that they should crash at a hotel near Dulles made it through the phone lines)... I think that I will drool on my desk tomorrow while they snooze off the jetlag.
HA! I'm glad you didn't remember to suggest to S that she come to our place at 2 a.m., not withstanding the fact that I'm very excited to see her and her DH!

I considered it... except now I think that I've got the date wrong by 24 hours. Silly date/time stuffs. They fly out at 7pm today-Thursday [NZ] and land at Dulles at 11:45pm tomorrow-Thursday [US]. So if she gets here at 2 am, that's actually Friday isn't it. Except in Auckland, where it's Saturday. Ei. This is verging on the math.
And our Kentucky cousin/Sue's twin comes in to BWI at 11 am on Friday - so I'll actually be drooling on my steering wheel. I am a very good big sister. The next three weeks involve at least six trips to the airport, one roadtrip to Pennsylvania, and a visit from you, Sparky and DH, right? PS - insent.
oh, and I have 3 meetings-from-hell in there somewhere. I am starting to flinch whenever someone says 'we just got back from this conference and....' Enough said that technology presentations for K-12 education invariably involve portals - and nothing else. Because all the people who were selling portals as the total solution to big business and universities have to find their next market somewhere, right? Hey - portals. Cool! And then we can go try out our new CD-rom drives.

My DH will be at a Frisbee tournament that weekend, I think, Sox. I'll try to remember to check with him. Hopefully, we can find a weekday to come up and have some dinner with S and C.
My DH still brings up his chess game with Aunt Fay at S's wedding. Hee!

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
Which you just did. By announcing it here.
Snerk. I wish.
for my current position, both of the two main people I supervise applied for this position, and both were involved in interviewing me (and the other candidates).
I can understand them being involved in interviewing if they hadn't applied, but wow, that's weird. I assume that they had at least been eliminated from the competition by the time they were interviewing? Still, how uncomfortable, and just strange.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I have a friend who, when things get completely out of pocket, tells her middle school drama kids that if they get to the end of the task, she'll teach them a mime trick.
My junior high history and Latin teacher had been a missionary in Africa, and for a reward, she'd speak Zulu to us. Zulu is full of click consonants, and we thought it was hysterical.

I love that, Ginger. I remember in junior high, we had one substitute who was completely ineffectual, but so sweet we loved her anyway. I mean, we still played the most horrid tricks, but we weren't as mean about it, and she seemed oblivious to them anyway. She was a retired teacher, who used to tell us about her days teaching in a one-room schoolhouse. Apparently, they shut down the school when she retired (they bussed the kids to a new, bigger school), and gave the building to her. So. Very. Cute. I wonder if it was really true or if she was playing with us as much as we were with her. Anyway, we calmed right down when she started telling us "olden days" stories.

Pop tarts:
My employer uses an online application system. I just answered the minimum qualifications questions (2) and it has so far been trying to load the next screen for over ten minutes. And I have to go to work. Argh!
eta: I gave up and went back to start from scratch. Now, the system won't open at all. I wonder if they're doing unscheduled maintenance, or some crap like that. I guess I'll do this at work, or at the very least after my shower. Crap.
