WHY do students not realize that a deadline is a fucking deadline? I have had three students in my office today asking if they can submit changes to the powerpoint presentations that are due TODAY. yes, I realize that the presentation is not until Friday, but there is a deadline. Why do they think this is acceptable?
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

I ask myself this every school year.

Thanks, WindSparrow. I didn't put the pants in the dryer, but I did hang them up to dry. I'll see how the green tea/salt thing works.

BTW, Nora, I am very amused that the tag with the most use (by far) in Tom's journal is BEER.
There's a WHOLE lotta homebrewing talk in there.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I hope it does the trick, Nora, because it would be a PITA if you have to de-dye the whole things, then re-dye them to put some color back in.

Yay Emmett!
ION, I'm wearing the new shoes I bought with Perkins AIFG! (Although the peep toe means no stockings, which I'm not so thrilled with.)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Today I'm wondering why it is that SOME people in my office take vacation but don't come back until one, two, three days after they're supposed to be. I mean, if I tried that the organic fertilizer would hit the fan, but we have one person who does this every single time and others who do it now and then.

What happened to wearing sandal-toe nylons with peep toes? That's what they're for.

Yeah, I generally don't buy them because I like my stockings to last as long as possible, but I'll see how they look. I actually don't see much of the toes in these so it might look okay.
Also, these are the highest heels I've owned (3") and are (so far) very comfortable.
