Mal ,'The Train Job'
[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.
On hold with the nurse at the PCP's office. They didn't get my message from the answering service. Grrrr. But, now they're trying to squeeze me in to be seen today. She says I sound really wheezy. YAY!
I told her I was hosting Thanksgiving, and she said maybe not. Fuck my body.
Iris is an adorable birthday girl, and the party looks very fun.
man, that cake nearly started a riot. remind me to have the butterfly cover the entire cake next time so that everyone can have an equal part of the butterfly. oi.
Hah! I remember those days of fighting for the "best" piece of the cake.
How long do I wait before I start being a pain in the ass with the two doctors' offices?
vw, if you haven't already started, I would say now is good. You want to get through to at least one of them before the office takes its lunch break.
Decision~ma for Tom.
Get better soon~ma for vw.
As if my credit wasn't in bad enough shape, some evil creature has put a series of $99 charges one of my credit cards. They all came from the same place on the same day, which seems pretty obviously fraudulent, but I have to dispute it in writing and wait four to six weeks.
They all appear to have come through PayPal. You would think PayPal would want to know, but there is absolutely no place to report fraud that didn't happen to a PayPal account. Also, the word recognition robot things? Made of fail.
But dude, why do I get so invested in the students who absolutely refuse to do anything?
I didn't see your post before you edited, but I so totally understand this feeling. You want all of your students to succeed so badly that it just drains you and it totally sucks when they refuse to care enough about themselves to actually put in any effort. I so so so get this.
Emily, I feel your pain. Ugh.
And thanks Sail, grubby is a great word for it. Big scrubbies needed.
Who would have guessed Martha Stewart to be a Countdown viewer? Not I, anyway.
So how'd our favorite outraged snarkmeister do on Stewart's show, erikaj?
Oh, I didn't post. I actually retracted before ever hitting post, because once I'd done the cathartic ranting I decided you guys didn't need to hear the details, but ugh. Bright, bright student. Fucking up. And fucking up the class, to boot, so it's a bigger issue than just "so let me fail, Ms. You."
I think he would have been less embarrassed if asked to streak, Calli, but he did all right.But I think I know what he'd be like on Band Candy now.
