I love going through the stacks. I use the computer a lot but for any decent research project I will go to the library, either at school or at work.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Telling time analogly is odd. I can look at my watch, see the position of the hands, and know what part of the day I'm in. But if someone asks me what time it is, I have to look at my watch again and translate the symbolic time into a number. I don't think in a number the first time I look at my watch.

The status is NOT quo.
Sparky, I don't doubt you are correct, but I don't have time to do the kind of research that I would have to do were I researching a legal case or preparing a dissertation. For the kind of research I need to do as a teacher and the kind of research my students need to do as high school kids, the online databases are far and away a better resource than the typical school library with a card catalog ever was. ITA that at a certain level of study (and especially in legal cases, I would think), that wouldn't be enough. I wasn't clear about that, sorry--didn't mean to make your head explode.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm allergic to the nickel that's on the back of most digital watches, so I'm an analog girl all the way.

I've been wearing the same analog watch for, um, 35 years now. I wind it every night (that Luddite tag is NEVER going to close, is it?).

So, for lunch, I had half a cheeseburger that was mostly lettuce and tomato (and I finished the veggies), NO fries, a banana, an orange, and an Odwalla juice instead of a soda.
Not super healthy, but better than it could have been.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I wind it every night
aww that's so cute. You make me miss the winding wall clock I lost in the divorce.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
I am connie in watch timing. I need an analog clock for my massage appointments because I like the visual representation of how much time has passed more than numerical representation, but it sometimes takes me a while to remember what the time actually is.

(((Sean))). I don't even know what to say...
If there's any bits of spare ~ma that Sean's not using, can I borrow some for Comic Book Boyfriend. I don't need a whole lot, it just looks like some things are coming together to make stuff for him a whole lot better, and I'd like to give it that extra push.

My current watch has analog hands for hour and minute and big digital seconds flashing behind them.
