You were on my mind all night last night, incidentally. JZ was watching her My So Called Life extras on the DVD set, and the creator of the show, Winnie Holzman, looks a lot like you.
Cool! MSCL creator? Excellent...
Yep; I’ve never seen her before, but I think it’s the eyes. And the um…chin.
Though you are way more stylish and prettier. Thanks! Just what me and my bathrobe and Rudolph nose needed to hear tonight!
The Draconian Dictator principal actually asked me that at my evaluation last year. He then went on to tell me that I didn't want to be at the school. He commented that I "seemed to get sick a lot" and that he felt I got sick because I didn't want to be at the school or teaching.
Oh, I LOVE that accurate language! “Seems?” “Feel?” What an ass. Sox is absolutely right – numbers are your friend. Or a nice “Well, I SEEM to FEEL that you’re an ass. Would you like to see my timesheets?” Ugh.
While it is true that I get bronchitis at least once a year, it has been the case for over 20 years! I have allergies and asthma. It is also true that I have missed less that 5 days of work because of illness in the 9 years I've been at this school.
Heh. I don’t understand how he’s not on his knees thanking god for you. I am a good teacher, and I take all my sick days. Either for actual caught-from-the-kiddos sicknesses or Oh-my-god-I’m-gonna-strangle-them mental days. All teachers at my school do this…granted, some more than others, but still. We’re in absolute AWE of the one teacher who hasn’t had a sick day in 2 years (and honestly, think he needs to stay home once in a great while. Dude, you’re FUCKIN’ SICK! Drink some SOUP. Stay in BED!)
Sounds like one of my college professors. She also said that migraine headaches and PMS were in the same category.
BWAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAAAAA! Er. Sorry. I get both, and it’s very safe to say they are not psychosomatic. Although both ARE made exacerbated by stress. Like stupid people.
I just watched the last ep of TAR, and I'm so tickled that it
ended up in and around Anchorage.
It was so fun to see
places where I had been and shopped and swam.
I even hoped to see
someone I knew
, but no luck there.

Hil, if you find out more about the meal thing by mail order, I would be interested too.

In DC, they've got it so that you can pick it up, rather than having it delivered. (Which is a good thing, because at my apartment building, packages get delivered to the front office, and to pick up a package, I need to be there at a time when I can find the super, which doesn't happen terribly often. So packages can sometimes sit there for a week before I get them.) But I am thinking about trying it -- my current diet just is not working.
I've been thinking about trying one of those - other options I've seen are eDiets.com or Seattle Sutton. This one seems more flexible, which could be a plus.
I found it when I was considering NutriSystem, then reconsidered when I saw some pictures of the food. I googled for diet programs that have vegetarian options, and found a bunch of blogs recommending this one.
Oh yeah, someone in my office brought in some of that Nutri-System stuff. Nasty. Seriously disgusting. And it's all canned and dehydrated - looks like this one (and the other two I mentioned) are fresh.

I think to Dana, -t or me, that's like saying moisture in the air may have caused it to rain.
I don't mean to be snarky, but that's one of the things they've been warning about for ages.
I understand this. I go back and forth on the I and E too. But I had read somewhere that while these often change, the others rarely do. And I last took the test maybe a month or two ago. It's no big deal, but just seems kind of odd.
As I understand it, your base personality will stay the same, but at different times you may respond to various challenges by dredging up skills and abilities from the alternate preferences. I had this happen to me, once. But the odd Myers-Briggs results came from the time I was taking it for a psychological measurement class, so I got to have a nice long discussion both with the prof who had administered the test and with the head of student counseling who was the local MBTI expert on the topic. At the time, I was sublimating heartbreak into brilliant school work. I traded my usual F for a T. I'm not sure how long it took to get back to my usual preferences, more than a year, maybe but far less than a decade.
