Yeah, but don't start off thinking they mean to offend. Because I used the term "Munchausen's syndrome" in relation to to factitious behavior on the internet, not knowing that since my editor is multiply chemically sensitive, it meant things to her that I didn't mean to imply, and she kind of lost her shit with me. Start from assuming ignorance before malice.

[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.

Oh absolutely but I think to even assume the instructor would want to know so he could change the way he taught is to assume that he didn't mean to offend.

DH's van looks crunchy. The back door is crunched in, but the sides are fine. So while the back window shattered, the taillights are fine. Weird. And the airbags did not deploy. He has been on the phone for the last hour or so calling work, insurance, so on and so forth.
K-Bug's interview went well. She should hear if she got the job on Wednesday, I think.
Me, I have a paper to write and I'm NOT IN THE MOOD.

God, I just watched the most painful episode of Jeapordy EVER. Literally 5 or 6 unanswered questions. By the end, I think they were shortening the response time. AWFUL. Everyone missed final jeapordy. just horrible.

That's so odd, Vortex. Did the questions seem hard to you, or was it just contestants who weren't getting it?

Thrive to spite them
I hope KBug gets the job!
I was really worried about Mom yesterday, she had a pity cry day and just let herself go about everything but somethings have been really weighing on her. Like G'ma and how much work my Aunt J has been doing even though the house is sold. Like the estate sale. However a couple good things happened. One, the buyers went by the house when my Aunt and cousin were getting ready for the sale and they bought a bunch of big stuff! (like a dresser and a bedframe and some other stuff). And she's going to call them back and say that if they want they can have what ever is left over after the garage sale -- it's mostly household stuff anyway.
But the best news is that Aunt J found G'ma's cookbook, her handwritten one with all her recipes! G'ma was a good cook and it has great grandma's recipes. Aunt J's plans are to scan it and then make a book for everyone so we'll all have her recipes in her handwriting.
Plus I'm getting her Better Homes and Garden's cookbook, not as pricely but it's one she used often and consulted for lots of things.

some of the questions were really bizarre, like there was a whole category on Czech Kings. And a category of cheeses that started with C. Just odd.
