You give far too much credit to her cats.
Oh please, like Ozzie wouldn't do that.

[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.

Aaaaand we're back. Phone away, omnis.
Ok. Students, if I can't read your e-mail address, how am I supposed to contact you to set up a tutoring appointment? PLEASE write legible.
Okay, I just read the premise of Reaper, that the main character has to recapture souls escaped from Hell.
Didn't they already try a show with this premise, like within the last ten years or so? I'll be damned (heh) if I can remember what the name of the show was, or who was in it, but I know I've heard this premise before.
Eat my pork; feel my fork. There are ads for Quorn?
Sean, it was Brimstone. And it was great.
Susan, what everyone else said, with a special addendum to what connie said. Whatever the referral is for, if they were really truly OMGWTF worried about whatever it is, you'd have one of those magical secret appointments already. If they're willing to schedule you a couple of months out, they're not panicking over whatever it is, so neither should you.
(Conversely, if you ever get a referral for something and you call the specialist and they say, "Oh, yes, you," and schedule you for a visit the very next day, it's okay to worry, but only just a bit. No freaking out.)
Yeah, both the things I'm stressing over are, in the big scheme of things, routine screenings (one for me, and one for Annabel). Sort of, "This is probably OK, but because of family history and such, let's do due diligence and give you the tests." It just bugs the part of me that doesn't want to let go of a problem or drop a question until it's SOLVED, dammit. I'm all, "What, you want me to go about my normal life when I don't know how this is going to turn out?!"
Sean, publish~ma. (Which publisher?)
bonny, I'm sure you heard that Eastern Market was chosen as one of the 10 Superlative Neighborhoods in the US? Coolness.
It's 9:30 and I just finished my day and there's no milk for breakfast and I really don't want to leave the house to get some. What I want to do is collapse on the couch with either Deadwood or Venture Brothers. Wah.
Hey, Kristin, I'm about 99% sure I'm going to NCTE! How's it looking for you?
BTW, NCTE is Nat. Council for Teachers of English; it's Nov. 15th -18th (a weekend!) in NYC, so NYCistas, I would love to see people if this pans out!
Oops. Just lost it in front of an employee. Fortunately for me "losing it" means I slammed down the phone and shouted at the person who was no longer on the other end. Still, very embarassing. I had been waiting for hours for the person to let me know he'd finished something I needed to work on when I finally called to check his progress he said casually, "it's done." Did I not ask you to let me know as soon as it was done? Argh! Equally fortunately the employee was very understanding.
