We buried our Irish Wolfhound's ashes under a bush and it thrived.
You mean the bush, right?
Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I wonder if the people who live in our old house now have any idea that both yards are the cemetaries for three dogs, three hamsters and assorted gerbils.There are, along with a variety of cats and dogs, two horses buried in front of my old house.
In less morbid news, I need advice. I am utterly exhausted and would really like to go to sleep. I had planned to try to grade ten more essays, and I suppose if I really focused and pushed through, I could do that. I don't have to get up early; I'm not going into school until late morning since I'm not giving any exams tomorrow. If I do try to push through, though, I'm a little worried that 1) the quality of my grading will suffer and 2) I'll wake up and be insomnia girl for the remainder of the night (which would obviously suck). I've been up and working steadily since six this morning, and I'm pretty wiped. If I don't push through, though, I'm going to have to be a grading demon tomorrow to make up for it. Since I don't have anything else to do but grade tomorrow, that might be the better option. Then again, on Wednesday morning, I get 58 final exams to add to the ever-growing pile, so I'm really screwed if I don't finish at least 20 (preferably 25) of these suckers tomorrow. Then again again, my grades aren't due until after winter break, so the pressure to finish all this crap by Friday is purely of my own making. Then again again again, I really don't want a crapload of grading to do over the break.
Clearly, I have issues. Welcome to my brain.

We also all ate some of his ashes.
At least you didn't snort them. My BFF wants to be cremated, and have some of her ashes put into the punch, then have everyone do a toast with the punch. I told her that I am not eating or drinking anything at her funeral that did not come out of a sealed package.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Kristen, go to sleep. You'll do a better (and faster) job of grading after you've slept.

I told her that I am not eating or drinking anything at her funeral that did not come out of a sealed package.Heh. Yeah, I would do the same, in your shoes.
I think I have decided that I need to sleep.
x-post: Thanks, aurelia. Great minds, and all.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Once is not too much to ask, erika.
Sleep well, Kristin. You'll get all the grading done in good time.
At least you didn't snort them.
I didn't. I'm not sure nobody did.

Got and backflung. Cashmere, you know the train goes right under the airport, right? It comes out near baggage claim. I'd come get you but I'm betting that's in the midst of getting people off to school/work time.
I know I'm missing stuff. I tried to catch up but I'm so tired these days I fell asleep at 1500 posts left to go. I am reading when I can and sending lots of vibes and yays, though.

Yeah, that's it---The Body of An American. Real highlight of Season(Is it two or three?) Ray Cole's wake. The real producer died, so the mourning was real.

Sigh. I meant to get to sleep. But my schedule has been getting all skewed (when I don't have set times I need to be awake, I always end up sleeping something like three AM until noon), and Exodus is on TV.
I don't even like this movie. It took a novel with a rather simplistic message to begin with a removed every tiny bit of nuance it had. Also, Paul Newman? Jill Haworth? Really? (There was just a scene were Paul Newman's character sneaks through an Arab neighborhood by simply putting on a kaffiyeh and "blending in." In the book, the character in that scene was an Arab Jew.)
The locations are brilliantly gorgeous, though.
