You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The most commanding dominant I've ever met said, "Hi, I'm Catherine." Didn't raise her voice, didn't sneer, didn't use some cornball title. And I thought, "I will follow you anywhere." And indeed, she has scores of men and women who will follow her anywhere. She's hypnotic. Like a cobra.

I figure being a Dom has to be like being funny. If you have to tell people you are, then you're not.

Do you think my chances in Match.com would increase if I changed my handle to something with Quim in it?

Like Mayor Quimby?

Teppy, I entirely agree - risibility really wouldn't be cranking up the hot for me. But I confess I am loving the notion of playing Make Up Your DomName.

Like Mayor Quimby!

Life ain't easy for a Dom named Sue.

Ok, now I'm thinking my Dom name should be Punitive Damages.

well there was that time my (now ex) husband sent an email to the entire (mostly Indian expat) company thanking the front desk for straightening out a water delivery problem with "you're a better man than I am, Gunga Din."

I am constantly amazed that my brother has not been fired. His supervisor kept telling him she was going to make the Public Service Code of Ethics his desktop wallpaper.

I am making up silly D/s names in my head now and giggling. I blame Sir Mix-A-Lot and y'all.

I just realised how much Sir Mix-A-Lot has in common with George Washington.

....okay, stopping now.

You left out Sir Vicks!

My lunch today: toasted Turkish bread, with an assortment of dips. There's an eggplant, cashew and parmesan thing with some added spices and a hint of chilli; a warm caramelised onion dip (how does warming it make such a difference?), oh, and some olive oil with a pistachio dukkah. For afters I have soy and linseed crackers, King Island double brie and a cabernet paste.

I'm an Australian with a toaster, and I approved this message.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Corporal Punishment.

Always Anti-fascist!

I doubt I could pick a dom name, despite being a control freak, but I've thought for a long time there should be a woman's headbanger band called Spousal Delusion.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It's like being a Maverick. Or a pair of Mavericks.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Trudes, can you hop on IM?

The status is NOT quo.

First? You people are fucking hysterical. Thank you so much for that conversation. I practically hurt myself laughing.

Second? Sometimes kids are DUMB. I just discovered that one of my students--one of my SENIORS--plagiarized at least one piece of her major research paper word-for-word from SparkNotes. It's just a couple of sentences (though I suspect there's more I couldn't track down), but she's going to get a zero now, which will lower her grade in the class by a full letter grade, and she will most likely have to inform the colleges she's applied to about it, as per school policy. One of her friends just went through this after blatantly plagiarizing a paper in another class, so it's not like she didn't know the consequences. I'm so disappointed and so mad at her for doing this for herself. And I know it's going to poison our relationship for the rest of the year, which just blows. ARGH.

Not to mention that I had to spend an hour trying to figure out if there were other parts stolen, which was a total waste of my time. Grr.

The status is NOT quo.

Sigh. Hivemind help requested.

In a genius move, I just sliced the hell out of my right index finger on the edge of a food processor blade stuck in the corner of a drawer. It bled a lot but stopped after about 15 minutes of elevation and pressure. I flushed it out with cold water, put antibiotic ointment on it, and bandaged it up. It's ugly, but I think it will be fine.

However, I can't for the life of me remember when the last time I had a tetanus shot is. I don't think it's been more than ten years--I suspect it's been about 9--but I should probably get a booster just in case. Can I wait until tomorrow to go into Urgent Care and get one, or do I have to go in tonight? I'd really rather avoid yet another late night UC visit if at all possible.

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

Oh, Kristin! I'll ask my mom about it, but I think you can wait.

You people are so funny, even without knowing half of the terms you use or what kind of accents you're talking about. Too bad I surrendered to sleep last night, but not before watching the very slashy-OMG this. I mean, fuck Everett playing a gay character. Anyone Tristin Oliver made eye contact with... just... well, maybe I'm here too much. Humm.

In the meantime, I'm organizing music for my 2 hours ride in rocketland, and found out a place I could run to in case Hamas will decide to launch at Be'er Sheva while I'm there. It's underground and I think I can make it in just 15 seconds. But in case of direct hit, I'll have to stay there for a while until they'll clear out the ruins of the offices and stores from above.

And I hate this, so much.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

It can wait until regular hours. Tetanus is usually only a concern in penetrating wounds deep enough that they can't be cleaned by thorough flushing. YTMV. A booster is always a good idea.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Kristin, what Shir and dcp said about the tetanus shot.

That sucks about the senior, too. Do you think the plagiarism was intentional, or a case of transcribing notes that she forgot weren't in her own words?

{{{Shir}}} Be safe.
