Definitely up for some bowling in Madison.
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got 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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It's not David's friend Phil, but this interview with Phil Gordon is pretty awesome.
If I had to guess, I would say about 50 percent of the “name pros” you see on television on a regular basis have a negative net worth. Frightening, I know.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
This is the longest week ever. I have accomplished nothing today and had nothing to accomplish today and yet I am still here at work and cannot leave.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sheesh. How many Phils are there? In that article, there are Gordon, Laak, Hellmuth, Ivey, Gallfond.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Wow, congratulations Kat, that's great.
I really miss teaching literature. I mean, I love teaching the cultural stuff I teach, especially when students really do begin to open their eyes, and I love the health sciences. But sometimes I miss the literature.

Well, it's two blocks in terms of big blocks. Like Vegas sized blocks. It's about a mile. It would be about a 20-25 minute walk or a 8 minute bike ride.
I just sent an email to the two current AP Lit teachers (both PhD...no, I'm not intimidated by them at all ...) asking for their course outlines. Let me know when you have some time to meet. Maybe lunch this weekend?
Kristin, tomorrow is all screwed up. But if you have time Sunday, that should work.

OMG, my thermostat is the dumbest thing ever. So it is 80 in here and I want to get it down to 78 to not be a sweaty mess. I switch it to off, bump up the thermo, then switch to cool, and bump down the thermo. It doesn't work. I try many times. Then I try putting it on heat, ratcheting the thermo down and switching directly to cool. It works. That's...stupid.
Anyway.
And I'm angsting about a pretty buff tabby girl (I think) who saw me on the balcony and jumped to my downstairs neighbors' balcony, crying at me. I went down and rubbed her ears until she ran off, acting as if she wanted me to follow. Sweet thing, but I have no more room for cats! Ahrg. I swear, if I end up following her and she leads me to a litter, I don't know what to do.

I want a kitten.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Kat! I got your message! Phone wonky! Answer is YES!
I got microdermabrasion, tonight. My skin is all rosy. YAY SPA WEEK!
Had a kerfuffle at work over the word "productize."
I argued that it wasn't a word. And even if it was, it's idiotic, lame, and ridic marketing slang that shouldn't be on our web site.
So I went to the source of sources.
erinaceaous says that it is a word. But it is a lame word and also unattractive. I think that I have the winning opinion on MY SIDE.
Thoughts on productize?
