Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

“Not dead yet!”

What's the last thing that made you smile?

Nate just hugged me and called me Mama. Given that I've been "Mom" for a while now, Mama kind of made me teary and nostalgic.

A student telling me today that I was her favorite teacher, that my style was "Nuclear" and that not anyone could dress like I do and pull it off but she felt I "totally did".

Oh! And DD stopping me today to tell me how he didn't watch TV but last night he watched the best show of the new season and wanted to know if I had watched it. Then he blathered on about how well it was written and acted, how creative it was, etc. The show? The Fringe When I mentioned it being like X Files he paused and then exclaimed, "You are right! I didn't even see that!"

All I could hear in my head was one of my students saying, "Dumb-ass".

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

One of my students told me that I'm the highlight of her Tuesday.

A Facebook invite late last night from a favorite friend I haven't had contact with in nearly 20 years. We don't have any people in common (he was a housemate when I first went to university way back in the day) and has a super common name so if asked I would have considered him lost to the ages.

The Mentalist

This just gets more and more surreal:

It seems that today during the time Barack Obama was waiting to hear back from Sen. McCain about their planned joint statement -- and while McCain says he was meeting with key advisors and becoming increasingly concerned about the financial crisis facing the country -- he was actually holding a special meeting with Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, the expat international financier who once supported Hillary Clinton but now is supporting McCain because she thinks Obama is "elitist".
