Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'
[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.
Laga, I'm so sorry about all this mess and stress. You've gotten good advice, so I won't add my two cents.
Annabel is too adorable!
I had thesis nightmares last night--about losing important articles after something got mysteriously deleted from my final version. My brain thinks too much.
Where is everyone today? I need distraction from my Spanish!
I was doing actual work for most of the morning. Crazy, I know. But I'm nearly finished that work now and am dragging it out so I don't have to move on to the paperwork portion of the work.
Good plan, Jars!
Hola, vw!
I am exhausted. Reading that article did nothing to get me into bed earlier last night, so I'm only half-conscious. Thank god I don't have to actually teach most of the time!
Hola, Emily! I wrote about you in one of my Spanish assignments. I said your birthday in Spanish (if I got it right. I always forget if it's the 27th or the 28th...or maybe the 29th).
Good plan, Jars!
I know! And, in fact, I'm going to complain about the stupid system that is making paperwork for me.
See, the Irish government has guidelines that a licence has to be applied for every time you want to alter or export an archaeological artifact. Which makes sense. However, they also apply this to environmental material, which is stupid. So every time I want to cut up a piece of charcoal to ID it, I have to apply for a licence to cut up that piece of charcoal. And every time I want to C14 that charcoal, I have to apply for a licence to cut it up to ID it, a licence to export it to the C14 lab, and a licence for them to crush it up to date it. It is so goddamned frustrating.
Here endeth the complaint.
Good complaint! Now, let's see if I can translate that into Spanish.
Nope. Can't.
See, this is my current frustration. I don't know enough words or conjugation to actually *say* anything. So, I get frustrated and give up, which, well, doesn't help.
I just finished skimming from yesterday. (I can read so much more when I'm not at home with a not-wuite-sick baby.)
Laga, my heart goes out to you and your family. Family issues can be so tough and just plain intractable sometimes. I hope you all find your way through this.
Ellie is feeling much better and thanks for all the well wishes. We even went swimming at a friend's house yesterday and she had a great time. So even though it was a sick day, it ended up being a fun day as well.
Stephanie, I'm so glad she's better. That was an awful scare.
I hope this tingling on my chest isn't shingles returning. I'm going to assume it's not and try not to stress.
