You were right the first time, bonny. The way to remember it is that e follows a, so the effect is what's caused by an action.

ND's uber-cheesy Hawaiian shirt with a lady in a waterfall on the back.

His collection of uber-cheesy Hawaiian shirts endures, huh?

KT, I'll bet you look uber-cute! I hope you've been getting picts of these great outfits all week. I also hope you and ND are able to get some time together soon.

In an act of random abandon I wore blue suade 8 eye Doc's to work today with a long sweater (it comes down to my knees). I can't decide if the look is more Elvis or Obewan/Jedi.

Susan, see also: Mars Hill, why it makes me twitchy. (Have enjoyed D's occasional Metroblog posts on them.)

I have to say I'm not exactly grieving that they seem to be having the implosion that happens 90% of the time with these nondenominational cult of personality churches.

Alas, I have not been taking pictures all week.

I think it goes without saying that I love, adore, could not live without this board and all of you. But I'll say it anyway.

My schadenfreude is on overtime as a result, Susan.

Awesome! Thanks to both Emily and Amy.

After loads of psychology courses, I'm familiar with affect (the presentation of emotion) but have always been tentative about other ways to use e-a ffect.

The board has been so slow lately. I need entertainment, people!

I found out I don't have class next Wed. and Thurs. so GF and I may be heading to Disneyland and CA Adventure next week! Woot!

This is what I'm saying! More posting! Keep me awake!

I have to say that I really really value (1) the clarity, simplicity and elegance of our board and (2) the fact that Buffistas care about grammar, spelling and punctuation.

This is why I couldn't deal with the cancer support sites. Under the circumstances, I couldn't deal with the posts that appeared to have been written by a cat, except that a cat wouldn't type lol so often. Also, most of the people were asking questions that showed they knew nothing at all about their illness and treatment. You're on the internet, people. Google, for the love of god.

For those of you following the adventures of the dog, here's the latest: I was in another room and I heard a series of loud thumps. I discovered that the dog had wrestled a shoe into his crate and fallen asleep on it.

After all that hard work to drag it in there, no wonder he needed a nap.

I find it endlessly amusing & cute when Sass steals my DH's shoes, because they're so big and she's so small. He'll say, "Get my shoe!" at the same time I'll say, "Get the camera!"
