JZ, Happy Birthday!

I have a lovely sinussy summer cold. I've been attempting to watch tennis but have been mostly drowsing on the sofa.

Wow, what a weird time-delayed doublepost.

Sorry about that.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

How can a man who has a PhD and understands things like linear algebra be so completely lacking in common sense and ability to plan things?

There does seem to be an inverse relationship between the intelligence needed for one's academic field and common sense. Bob's former roommate had a masters in electrical engineering and a philosophy PhD and thought his cat was female. Because it had nipples.

[Have I told that one before?]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's hilarious.

There is a reason the absent-minded professor stereotype exists...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Happy Birthday JZ!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Happy Birthday, JZ!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Veterinarians tell tales of families bringing in their cats or dogs and asking what the six evenly spaced hairless bumps are. Clearly more people need a refresher on 'mammalian characteristics' and what they imply.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Happy Happy JZ Day!!!

We had a cranky toddler sighting at the bookstore--she was upset because she didn't get the book she wanted and cried and cried until her dad was taking her out.

I was very suddenly woken up with a massive charlie horse in my right calf--boy, did that hurt!! It was tender for a while this morning.

Work was pretty dead--not a good sign for the rest of the summer. And, I have to work next Saturday, July 4; I had made the mistake of assuming we'd be closed. Oh, well, I don't have plans until the 5th (Mundelein holiday parade, which goes past my friend's house and is fun to watch).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

thought his cat was female. Because it had nipples.

Maybe he has no nipples.

Happy birthday, JZ!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

There does seem to be an inverse relationship between the intelligence needed for one's academic field and common sense.

Absolutely. I work with a ton of engeineers. My father is an engineer with his PhD. They prove this theory daily.

On the other hand, this theory is what keeps me in a job. I help the engineers handle the administrative side of their projects. While they may know their technical stuff inside and out, handling the internal project management stuff is HARD.
