We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I for one welcome our new zombie overlords.

I have found the touch that makes my roast recipe go from merely excellent to perfection: royal fig jam spread along the sides of the meat as a marinade after the first phase of cooking . It was an effort of will to only eat a quarter of the dish tonight and save some to try out on my chef friend tomorrow.

Dana, you also forgot the concerned fundamentalist outsiders who worry that Harry Potter (not, perhaps, getting that he's a fictional character) is leading The Children into practicing wizardry vs. the Victoria Bitters types who cheer him on while he does so (similarly challenged in discerning the difference between fiction and real life). KRZY deathmatch!

Art Crawl!!!

I've never thought about whether or not that Jackie woman is confirming or rejecting stereotypes: the ads for that show are so obnoxious I cannot imagine watching it on purpose.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That's a great idea, Matt - I'm sure it helps hold the juices in, too.

I'm way behind here, so I skipped to the end to cross post this bit of news with B'tech:

Mr. Wizard is dead.

The "blog about the zombie uprising" thing that Allyson linked to amuses me no end. I plan on participating in LJ, but I'm trying to decide if I want to do a Gothic Charm School post linking to it. Because, well, zombies!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, I may not be at work, but I still don't want to do anything! I had big big plans for today, but maybe not.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Doesn't her character being gay risk highlighting and underlining the stereotype? So manly that she does women? Is it in the execution then, that it's avoided? Because on paper it seems textbook.

I haven't seen the show, but based on your post and a quick skim of the article you linked to, I can see the risk. But I agree with the implication in your last question, that it's one of those things that could be handled well.

On another subject, Hubs has asked me to ask the DCistas to recommend a vet for a second opinion for Teddy. He wants to talk to another vet to be sure there isn't anything Teddy's vets haven't already thought of.

Yesterday, I tried to schedule a PTO for today, but my boss already had a doctor's appointment so I had to be here. Which ended up being all right, because the manager who was in charge of the post-move server testing we did here in the department is taking us testers out to lunch! Also, since my boss isn't here, it's a tad less stressful today, and I can finish off the couple of projects I have to do this week.

Maybe I can get Friday off, instead? Mmm, something to think about...
