Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yay Kat on signing a new lease! And yay for planning a first birthday party, I'd have to agree that they are both miraculous.
My plans for the weekend: getting better? pretty please?
I taught today, despite my better instincts. This led to one teaching moment that still has me confused. A student of mine says she's thinking about writing her research paper on the impact of television on political campaigning. So we talk about it a bit. She seems well aware that there's a general election coming up, but she's not that interested because she doesn't like any of the candidates. She adds that it's kind of cool that we might elect a black man or a white woman, except she wishes it wasn't *that* woman, etc. Up until this point I am just listening to her, but then she asks a question. "So what is Clinton? She's a Republican, right?"
::represses mild boggle:: So my student knows she doesn't like the woman, but has no idea which party Hillary CLINTON is running for?!? How does that happen? She can't remember Clinton's presidency? weird.
But here's my moment of teaching confusion: why does she want to write about politics when she's so completely unaware of them? Is it a cry for help from the wilderness?

Now tagless for your comfort.
tiggy, it's frustrating and crazy making some of the time but eventually, it gets better. Until it gets bad again. And then it gets better.
It sort of evens out.

Oh, and yay on the new place, Kat!
Boo to slobbery fingers.
Target has bunny ears in the dollar bins. I have two teeny Easter bunnies hopping around the house.

I am torn between suggesting she write on something else that she actually, you know, knows about, and thinking maybe she'd actually learn something if she stuck with it. But I'm guessing she'll switch topics.

I walked home from work. I should do that more often. I also stopped and got a turkey burger. Yum.

I'm glad you found a house, Kat!
Noah's just taking advice from his sister.
I need to duct tape my carpets this weekend. Mainly the padding because the old tape is coming unglued (and where it peeks out, it's ugly. And Devi gets bored and will pull off chunks to play with.) I even got white and reddish brown tape so it'll be nicer looking!
Also need to clean.
