Well, at a buffet, sure. But how many tabbies actually go crabbing or hook a bluefin?
Seafood dreams seem a little like kitty porn.

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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
You can rip songs off of YouTube, Fay.
Well, maybe one can, but I can't. Is it very easy?
Meanwhile, though, I've been doing that oldskool, by playing a video whilst recording into GarageBand as if it's a podcast. It's a bit crap, but much better than nothing. It's giving me flashbacks to when you used to sit with your tape-player, listening to the radio, finger poised for the song you wanted...

Our wings are not tired.
Another day. Last night was open house at HS. Brendon is a Junior now and the parent volume has declined steadily as time goes on. Not a single teacher said that he was sleeping in class! Woo! This is a step up from last year.
He has some tough stuff this time including Physics and Trig. His teachers are all incredible. His language teacher said they have nicknamed him 'walking dictionary' because he referred to one of the other teachers as draconian. Thought GG would appreciate that. Now if only we could get him to do his homework. Same old same old. 100 on test, 0 on homework. Maybe this will be the year he learns. I live in hope.
IOmemeN, it is time for me to seek a hair salon. It is longer than it has been in a decade and I am tired of having it twisted up 90% of the time.

and then got pissed off when they talked over the end!

What is with that? I don't mean Brendon in particular, I just mean in general. Why is it so, like... anathema to so many students?
I feel like I just used anathema wrong, but fuck it. I'm having a crappy week for no reason at all, so I want to use big words, dammit. I guess. Help!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Why is it so, like... anathema to so many students?
I can sympathize. I mean, one of the best things about being a grown-up is I don't have to take work home with me.

The status is NOT quo.
I wish I didn't have to bring work home with me. Stupid grown up with homework-job.

I'll admit this was me in school. My logic was that they give us homework so that we can learn the material. If I can get an A on a test without doing the homework, then I obviously don't need to do the homework to learn the material. It was just boring busy work. I developed this theory in grammar school when I would get 100 on the spelling pre-test and still have to copy the words three times each until the real test on Friday.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I think most students who do well on tests just don't see the point. Endless repetition is boring. I hated math esp. I did the last problems and did bother t=with the ones in the begining unless I had problems with the ones at the end. I never saw the point o f30 math problems every night.
