This Monday refuses to give in. I don't know how I shall survive doing data entry for the next three and a half hours. My brain is melting out of my ear. *sob*
Make it go by faster?
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wasn't at work today, and now I'm scared I'm going to have the day you all have been having today tomorrow. I'm also scared that it's going to be one of those five-days-of-work-in-four-days kinds of weeks. Great.
I'm back in my own home, and I really need to go to the drugstore, but now I really don't want to.

For God's sake Jesse don't leave the house. Take it from those of us who have already made that mistake.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Last numbers I saw on Myanmar were 13,000. How terrifying. Wait--Burma? Myanmar? Is there a hard and fast right answer?
Scarlett Johanssen engaged to RYAN REYNOLDS???? That might just kill my crush on him.

I need to get some plumber's tape on my way home. And I also need to find my big frying pan. It is currently lost and is making me sad. Painting the living room next weekend. Would any rich Buffistas like to buy me two new living room chairs? Anyone? Any rich Buffistas wanna help me out? Hm?
Yeah. Doesn't hurt to try.

Holy fuck. According to the nifty and terrifying college savings calculator , I need to save $670/month for the next 18 years to pay for college for one kid who is 13 months old.

Newsies are all over the map on the Burma/Myanmar question. Yesterday I heard the generalist newsreader on the Beeb say "Yangon" about thirty seconds before the local correspondent said "Rangoon." They work for the same company! They should have a style guide!
OTOH, I prefer Burma, because at least then my local TV news would not mispronounce it at MY-yan-mar.

Good call. And yet? I think I have to.
Kat, I think it's insane to even consider having all the cash on hand to pay for college unless you're rich. Student loans are good debt! Not to mention grants.

Sounds like Grace and Noah better be getting cutie-pie scholarships, Kat.

It's ME-an-mar right? That's how CJ Craig said it, and I'll take her word for it.
