Thigh, on the side, so I don't have to sit on a sore lump all day.
Angel: Yeah, I never told anyone about this, but I-I liked your poems. Spike: You like Barry Manilow.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Thus far, being awake has failed to be at all worthwhile.

I just got a listing for a 4-bedroom house with central heat and air, washer/dryer, 1 mile from town, for $150 a month more than I paid for one third of a three-bedroom apartment with, well, heat, in Boston.
Gah.

News that will cause you to fondly remember the halcyon times when coffee was for closers and third prize was you're fired.
Urgh. I'm only being reminded of the insanely hacky commercials for Mamet's new "comedy" that air 2-3 times each morning on my local news station.
Jesse! Did you know that tonight is the premiere of Miss Rap Supreme on VH1? And MC Serch is the host?

Ugh, I say, too. Although Mamet has yet to hit upon waterboarding as a sales motivation strategy.

I have a friend whose barely competent manager has decided that the solution to all their problems is to drag the whole department to some outdoor/nature center that does team building programs next week. (Including the person with skin cancer and the person with some sort of porphyria disorder, naturally.) Wonder what neat tricks they'll come up with.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
Heh. Shir and Nilly, I thought you might appreciate this little story. My students were writing poems that played with sound devices this weekend, and one of their choices was to write a Jabberwocky-esque poem using some other type of nonsense words...or substituting real words that would sound like nonsense to the listener. For example, one poem uses names of Indian dishes ("'Twas Balti and the Saag Aloo/Did Murgh Makhani Rhogan Josh/All Methii were the Vindaloos/And the Madras Tok Gosht...").
One of my students used Hebrew words! I don't understand them (which is the point, really), but thinking about how it would sound to you makes me giggle. She starts, "'Twas rabotai and the n'vareich toves/Did Y'hi and sheim in the m'vorach:/All mei-atah were the v'ad olam,/And the baruch she-achlanu mishelo...." I thought you'd get a kick out of that.
Oh, and her "Beware the Jabberwock, my son!" became "Beware the birkathamazonock, my son!"
