Hey Tep, Daisy, Brenda...Next time you're in SF we're going here.
Yes! Even better if next time were at the same time.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What is even happening?
Hi, everyone. Scott and I met P-C the other night, which was very nice. I had to leave early-ish though, because I developed some sort of throat-fever ick, and there wasn't even too much candy involved.
Bilibo reminds me of the hat that Fat Albert character used to wear. It's a positive bargain in comparison to the other toys this retailer sells. I hope all those playthings come in sturdy cardboard boxes, because that's what kids really like -- cardboard boxes. And newspaper.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Well, it's nice to see that 16 years later I'm *still* being told by academic advisors that my choice of degree is "pretty unmarketable" and that I should consider becoming bilingual in Spanish.
Grrrr.

Aims, what are you getting your degree in?

Mostly lurking...
Random things...
1. Thank you notes from ten-year-olds pretty priceless and comedy gold.
2. How is it that I own three Spanish-English dictionaries, and I can't find any of them. Grrrr.
3. Aims, you should consider Spanish. Then I won't be tortured alone in this journey!

Weak, Aims. What degree are you pursuing? I ask because all told me the same thing (I was an English major who didn't want to teach - the horror!) and it hasn't hindered my career path.

Yay Cindy! Glad you got to see P-C the other night. Our meetup was fun, though you were missed. How are you feeling today?

By people who soared up the professional foodchain to become...academic advisors.
(Which, no offense to anyone who is one. But the ones I've encountered didn't tend to blow you away with their dynamic potential. It's such a potentially important, life-changing role and yet so often it seems to be occupied by people who seem to be completely lacking in imagination or enthusiasm.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I am pursuing a degree in Secondary Education - Language Arts major. Haven't really chosen a minor yet.
After I get that, I plan to get a Master's in Library Science.
But unless I get Spanish, I'm not going to have a job.
