Spike's Bitches 43: Who am I kidding? I love to brag.  

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Andi, sweetie, I meant reassigning the trouble-maker. Not you! Let her go get bit by that resident. It would probably make her very happy with her drama-seeking ways.

Oh, no! We have a great house manager at the house with the biter. That one actually listens to staff who have something to teach her about how to handle stuff. Put this clueless wonder in there where she would increase the biting? A world of no! But she has mentioned that she and her husband have been discussing moving closer to where his job is, up in the Cities, where she could easily find another job of this kind, only better paying. To which I say, I hope she is able to meet her goal soon.

And then I will have a little talk with her supervisor requesting that the next house manager he hires be someone with an actual clue about professional responses, learning theory, and behavior management.

Oh, good, GC! Hope you get to relax, take some good drugs, and heal quickly.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I love my doctor. He said to "have a glass or two of champagne tonight for pain relief." Hee!

Hi, Smonster! [waves through the holy-shit level winds]

And yay, GC!

In less happy news, I just tore my favorite leather coat. (Not the Spike coat, for those who know me f2f, but the other one.) It's in a fairly noticeable place, and I'm not sure how to repair it. Damn it—I really like that coat.

You people need to talk more. I have another hour and a half to go!

Yay, GC for getting to go home and medicinal spirits!

Hey. New board.

I am having, so far, a completely problem-less day of US Airways flights. I've had two. One to go. Lots of flights to get from NYC to Ohio, but I clearly had to fly by way of TWO North Carolina cities.

Delta had a direct flight that would've been a lot easier. To get a round-trip ticket that used it would've cost about $280 (enough more than I paid for this one not to be worth buying it and canceling the return), but a one-way on the SAME PLANE? $550. I do not understand this business model. If $280 makes it worth it for me to fly on two planes over three days, shouldn't I be able to fly just once, on one, for, say, $170 or $180? Is the second flight magic, and worth -$270?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Wonderful news, GC and Sox!

Yes, it seems like we won't get truce so fast, but there are mixed headlines. At the moment, on top of being worried over the missiles attacks over Be'er Sheva (it's the forth largest city in Israel. Also a university city), is the Lebanese threat. Now the "special situation" is on every city and town within 40 km of the Strip. OK, I'm also worried about Israel destruction of the Strip too. I thought that only the extremes said "wipe Gaza out" up until the past week.

As for me. Well, all I wanted is to crawl underneath the blankets today and sob, and uni wasn't the best place. Way too much noise around. But Faulkner helped (as always), and the great guys I'm studying with. My mom's uncle funeral will be in Jerusalem tomorrow, and I'll get a ride with my parents from there home.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

When you are told to take two pills (antibiotics) a day, how far apart do you space them? OBVIOUSLY more than like, an hour. But closer to 10 or 12?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

But closer to 10 or 12

This. It doesn't have to be precise, but the idea is to get a more-or-less steady amount of the drug in your body, so (relatively) evenly spaced dosing is your friend.
