Is there room on the pretty bench? As I said in Natter, I just couldn't cope with the debate. Watched pretty, surreal movies instead with pretty, pretty boys and girls.

I watched it and knitted. And it just made me nervous for Obama.

I think that this really means that they were pretty much neck and neck which means more grist for the spinners on either side.

I think those who skipped the debate were wise.

So here I am, watching Channel V, and Marilyn Manson just turned up to a frat party in a car with vanity plates saying "Goth Thug". Which still doesn't disguise the fact that he's singing Tainted Love.

I enjoyed it. But I'm a geek who wants to be Keith's love slave. And I am not a sports fan. That pretty much means I've got to get stoked about anything with bunting, don't you think?

Oh, Scrappy, that is just heartbreaking. Peace to the family.

sj, I'm so thrilled to hear that J is doing so well. I actually drove by the hospital after the game the other night and threw him a goodnight kiss. CBD thought I was weird :).

So, after all my struggles with Spanish, the honors department is considering waiving the intermediate language requirement for me and letting me graduate with honors with having just fulfilled the university's elementary language requirement fulfilled. I should know on Monday. I am hopeful, though I'm not putting all of my eggs in one basket. I am actually just so grateful that they are even considering this. The coordinator told me yesterday that I have pushed through so many of the honors requirements (including my thesis, etc.) that she hates to see me struggling so much with one of the "lesser" requirements. And after reading the letter from my psychopharmacologist, she really feels that my struggles with language learning are related to my disability, and they need to make accommodations...just like any other professor/department would have to. I love them for even considering this.

That is exceptionally cool, vw. Right thing happening ~ma to you.

Also, sj, ~ma for TCG's step-grandmother, and for the whole family. That's just so rough.

:: crosses fingers for VW ::

Wow, it's kinda quiet. Hope everyone has fun planned.

Speaking of which... hi ho, hi ho, off to work I go. Blah. It's closing weekend people. Can't I have *1* day off??

good luck vw!

my roommate bought one of those Axe body scrub thingies. I didn't know what it was at first, I stepped in the shower and said, "what the hell's that?" then I had to try it. No beautiful girls appeared to scrub me down. sigh.

Hi all. I was on the school overnight trip Thursday through Friday and was feeling sick last night, so I've skipped a bit. What's up?

Oh, one thing I meant to say earlier was how happy I was to hear that sj's friend's little one came through his surgery well. Yay!
