Inara ,'Objects In Space'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Morning, all. This weekend has been less than fantabulous, as I was tired as hell all week, went to bed around 8 and then all day yesterday I spent getting/fighting/having a really painful headache. Not quite a migraine, but close. I had to cancel on a friend's bday party, and was asleep thanks to Ambien at 9:30.
Now I get to clean, do laundry, grade and lesson plan. I feel so unweekended.
Thanks, Sparky! Burrell, what's the problem with the yeast? I thought the only problem was that some people were allergic to it, which AFAIK I'm not. (Wouldn't be surprised though - I'm becoming allergic to more and more things. What's up with that?)
I have somethings to do. Why sit I at computer instead?

Because it's much, much easier.
Kristin: I have insent a request to attend NCTE to my boss. If I get approved, I'll probably be going with co-worker, but hey, maybe she'll be ok with getting a single and me shackin' up with you!
Cross fingers! And yeah, Kozol, Tan and Esmerelda Santiago!

That should be so cool! I taught both Tan and Santiago while I was student teaching last semester.
I originally though that's where I'd have my first one, and cover it for business when needed, but I'm way too scattered for that. I'll be sticking to torso, because when that shows in a work context I'm already in all sorts of trouble.
Heh. Yeah, we'll see how the new workplace is about it. I'm telling myself I CAN cover it, but honestly, how often do I wear long sleeves and not push them up? Mmm....
Still hurts this morning, I think the tendons underneath are a little pissy still, or something.
Beej, I got it done at a place called "Pinz and Needlez" at 9th and U. Which, I almost didn't go there, after looking at how they spell the name, and the website. But a friend who had a fine looking tat went there, so I tried to remind myself I wasn't ahving them spell anything. :) I really wanted to get it done IN DC, but a lot of people recommend the Baltimore Tattoo Museum (?something liek that).
I had a friend with pale pale skin and a couple black and dark blue tattoos. She used Dermablend to cover them, and it was amazing. They just disappeared. The stuff didn't even sweat off.
Gronklies. I'm listening to The Eclectic Word "Manners and the Undead". It's full of snarky goodness.
Last night between 12:30 and 2:30 am I made my sister in law's favorite potato salad, I'm headed over to their house today to watch the Bears game.

Just wear a watch with a band wide enough to cover the tat. Or a cuff bracelet that's wide enough to cover it.

Fabulous! I've put in a request with my boss as well, but seeing as all of the hotels are already booked at the convention rate and I don't have a roomie (which is fine, just more expensive for the school), she may decide that the costs are too much. The convention fees and plane ticket are around $700, and then you add in 4-5 nights of hotel at around $250/night (and that's a super cheap and scary hotel)...we'll see. I'm just not able to front the cash myself, so it's all up to them.
