Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I am in grading hell.
Pull up a seat and I'll join you. Does it ever end?

How is it possible that some of their papers got worse from the first to second draft? I could weep.
I say the same thing all the time. It makes my head hurt.

By Friday the students are going to be insane!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

This project has msbelle written all over it: Do 101 Things in 1001 Days.

Is your sister coming in on Wednesday, ita?

Is the back arching a particular preemie thing? I can't think of a kid who hasn't done it in a temper. Usually around getting into the carseat when they really.don't.wanna and you are in the most awkward position ever, cramped in a car, usually when you are late.

It's really suprising how strong they are.

Nope. It's not a preemie thing. It's a baby thing. But, most people don't know, the arching thing means that they are not using their abs as much as they should. Lack of trunk strength = difficulty in sitting. So the more used to arching they get, the harder it will be to sit.

Didn't know that. But then, not an OT.

I think pediatric OT or infant OT would be a rocking job! Go play with babies. Of course, it's more like Go Make Babies Mad! So maybe not so fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

his addie is on his blog, yeah?

Yup. And he's all about this sort of stuff.

Looks like I might get today's worth of work done after all. I don't see why everyone's priority isn't me. I'm so incredibly reasonable.

Kat, yes, Wednesday night. Which is why it's probably rude of me to get her to take me to the ER same day, so I'll probably wait. And something just calcified in me that means that no one else gets to take me to the ER until she's gone. Not even before she gets here. I'm just tired of too much shit.

Okay. Back to work.

Maybe it's like being a nanny: you can give them back, and just be amused at the range of baby-rage?
