'War Stories'
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.
definitely ugh, msbelle.
emily, sick days are a necessity in large urban schools, as you know. What kills me is they try all of these incentive programs for teacher attendance. A person I worked with for a bit had 5 years without an absence and got $3.00 as her incentive. WTF?!
It's not going to stop me from switching. I already have in some lamps. Still hate the light and miss my halogen, but it is nice not to have to replace the bathroom lights all the freaking time. And cooler in there with CFLs.
The Sun has been a bit, erm, negative about CFLs. In some cases, warranted (the whole gov't subsidized bulbs but you could barely find a place in town to get them.) I think they are trying to have a main point of how gov't has really not done a good job of functionally getting people to switch beyond hot air, but they're approaching it from too much of a CFL EVIL direction.
So exhausted. May curl up and die under my desk. Send burrito.

I've read that you shouldn't use CFLs in bathroom fixtures because the humidity can shorten their lifespan significantly. (Like, short enough that the energy savings will be offset by buying so many replacement CFLs.)

I don't know why, but I'm picturing some cowboys riding up to your office on horseback. Then as they enter your office, the receptionist exclaims, "The Burrito Rangers are here!"

I'm totally having a burrito for lunch. And a GIANT cookie.

Ah, bureaucratically administered education programs. What would we do without you? We'd actually have to pay for farce!
Hey, anyone know how to get Wite-Out off a keyboard? And, er, computer? And desk? And glasses?

Me, too. Because the burrito place is a block away, and I don't think I can drag myself any farther.
nail polish remover will clean up wite out.
My favorite burrito place is closed because of the crane collapse last week. (Which happened basically right on top of it.) BOOO.
