Sorry for all the non-sleeping, Bitches. I actually had a pretty good night except for when the puppy had trouble figuring out where she wanted to be at 3 a.m.
Dear Student: I know you don't care for that reference librarian. I'd like to let him go myself. However, submitting anonymous demands that the BigBoss ("if [Boss' Name] isn't man enough") fire him immediately or else you'll go to the Dean, is really immature and makes you sound like a spoiled brat. S/he who can't actually walk into one of our offices with a well worded complaint shouldn't accuse someone else of not being able to man-up. Signed, A Librarian Who Doesn't React Well to Your Stupid Threats.
It would be lovely if it would stall over Lake Okeechobee here for some time since it is still 3' down.
Lake Lanier is about 14 feet down.
Stay safe, Floridians! Get soaked, drought-stricken!
Cocksackie is viral; there's not much to do about it.
Besides the giggling.
SERIOUSLY! Doctor Cocksackie, I'm
sure
you were/are a brilliant researcher or diagnostician or whatever, but you couldn't come up with a clever mispronuciation like Nick Lachey did? Between you and Dr. Altzheimer (who's disease everyone in my family north of 70 calls "Old Timers Disease") and the cleverly named "sitz bath" medicine is just too giggle-inducing.
Oooh! Its actually spelled "Coxsackie" and is named after the village in New York State where it was first identified. It still
sounds
funny, but at least I can read it without turning twelve.

I kept asking folks where the nearest bell tower is, since it seems historically speaking, Texans do that kinda thing, but nobody would tell me where one is.
1) That was in Austin.
2) The UT Admin building isn't actually a *bell* tower. It just has a clock. No bells.
3) I'm betting most Texans won't find that as funny as you or I might. Like, in Austin itself, seriously, don't make jokes about it.
Ok. I just e-mailed the department chair asking her again to help me with the independent study incomplete. I was very careful in my wording and made it sound like she'd be doing me a huge favor and I'd be forever appreciative. Hopefully she'll be a little more positively responsive this time...
I hope it works this time, vw. Also, my sister works for an AC company so I will ask her about the mold thing.
Lake Lanier is about 14 feet down.
Wow, I knew it had been bad. We have had a very wet summer and are in better shape than we were. Still do not mind getting some more to refill the thirsty ground.
Grateful for the Olympic coverage since I am home today. A friend is there for her 5th Olympics this year. Javelin for the Bahamas. She did her qualifying thing yesterday but did not advance. Still, she totally rocks being there at 43 years old.
Why does DHs laptop do weird things when I attempt to use an apostrophe? Also refuses to copy and paste. My cord is shorting so I am without my dear laptop until later in the week. Miss it. Might have to name it.
Hey, it's up from 20 feet down. A lot of the other lakes are doing better, but Lanier is the main reservoir for the Atlanta area.
Anyone have any ideas about removing mold from the inside of a window AC unit?
Vinegar and tea tree oil both kill mold. Recipes for sprays
I would say wipe clean whatever you can and spray the rest. Warning: tea tree oil, even in small amounts, is reputed to be VERY bad for cats. Go with vinegar instead.
