"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I guess this is why travel agents aren't completely out of business.

ugh. I had the WORST travel agent for this project. I wanted to have everyone call her directly, easiest for me. She said no, can you send me a list. I said fine, thinking that she would take it from there. No, she wanted me to confrirm the itineraries with the students, etc. Then, for the students with train tickets, she actually sent the tickets into work with her husband (he works at the U) for ME to go to his office and pick up. She was AWFUL and I will never use her again. Someone (who I now think is an idiot) recommended her to me, and her husband works here and I like him a lot, otherwise, I would have been much nastier. I mean, what the hell is a travel agent FOR. I could have done a travelocity search my damn self!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, of course I was sending an unrelated email when someone on my conference call asked me a direct question.

response: sorry, I was asking someone to repeat that first part, and didn't hear the question.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So far today, I got to go to Stanford! And I didn't get lost, or get a parking ticket, and nothing bad happened while I was gone!

This post has been brought to you by the committee to make Lee's life seem even marginally exciting.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

There's someone from Halifax competing. Go Amrit!

Sadly, he was just eliminated on "genetrix" (he spelled it "genatrix").

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm about at that point where people will ask me questions on conference calls, but also at that point where I'm paying uber-attention because it's all so confusing.

Dammit, I still have a krav lesson plan to type up and time out before this evening.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
