You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Our wings are not tired.

Hmmm...I'll have to check that out.

You know what is shocking to me? My parents got cable. They, who have not even had rabbit ears in a decade.

Of course, it is because they wanted better internet than dialup and cable was the way to go in their neighborhood. But still.

Launderating. And then I need to run out to the bank and deposit a check.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I took the initiative a week ago and friended the one high school friend I was interested in keeping in touch with that I thought would be on Facebook, then three days later another high school person I had very little interest in keeping in touch with (even before I noticed the BIG DRAMA in her life) friended me, and now I'm just thinking ugh about the whole thing.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I've had a recent flurry of people I know from grade school friending me. The amazing thing to me is how new the idea of social networking is to so many of them. Where they been all these years? the other amazing thing is how many of them lead ridiculously boring, closed lives. Know what I mean? Just, twenty years of living in a very small bubble, with no contact with the outside world, or any awareness of it.

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

I keep getting friend requests from people I don't know--some are friends of people I'm not close to, and others are people with whom I have no contacts in common. I don't use the site anymore.

english muffin: I ended taking 3 10s, Steph. Staggered by about an hour and a half. I still woke up early and startled, but waking up is a good thing.

Hi, peeps! What's up? I facebook sometimes.

Right now, though, I'm at work literally watching paint dry. This is life on the edge.

Maybe I should go update my facebook status...

Hi Alibelle!

I should be preparing a lesson plan for Tuesday. I need to teach about exponential growth and decay. Instead, I'm randomly surfing the internet. Found a series of manga Midrash texts for kids. [link] Looks way more interesting than the textbooks I had in Hebrew school.

Hi, Hil! Fun! And sort of applicable, if you explain it the right way. But random internet surfing is significantly more fun than lesson planning.

I'm about to finish putting on a fourth coat of paint on this stupid wall. Between the nine million layers of paint and bowling last night, I seriously feel like I need a sling for my arm. And I need to exercise my left arm a bit more, or I'll be lopsided.

ETA: "PERKINS!!" Also, I'm totally eating cake right now, which makes that even more funny.
