What were you referring to in this discussion with your professor(s)?
A bunch of things. That doesn't really matter, actually. I see why they think I might be talking about the zero sum (the "result" of a game stays the same - kind of like the average. I don't know, I just Googled it yesterday after too many people dismissed me with that statement), but I'm talking about something a lot more basic than economics, dammit.
I'm talking about physics. The scale of value and the value of the value may differ over time, but the energy won't. So I'm not claiming that it'll be zero sum game, but that if a process suddenly "ceased" of being, it didn't really disappeared - the energy of it just went somewhere else.
I just don't have any idea why suddenly people think I know something about economics. If I had have, I'd wear nicer cloths, God dammit.
I have been flu shot. Here's hoping for no side effects.
{{{Sparky}}} Health~ma to you and baby K.
Health~ma Sparky and Seska and Connie and whoever else can use it which is probably all of us to some extent.
Must go out into the world and get cat food and dog food and people food. Would rather stay in by the fire, but afeared of the cats taking matters into their own claws.
anti-flu~ma to all!
Aims, thank you for that story about hand tourettes. I laughed so loud it sounded like a bark.
~ma to Sparky and fam. I hope you feel better, soon.

This made me chuckle.
Connie, I got my shot today, too. I think last year I had to go home with the achy blahs. Hoping that doesn't happen this year.
Boy, yesterday was a real pisser for lots of us, wasn't it? I am feeling better today, so I return the ~ma to the pool. I can't remember the last time I was so suddenly and violently angry for no clear reason.
One of the reasons I keep KBD around is that he's eminently teachable in some respects. Once I explained to him that men tend to problem-solve and women tend to prefer sympathy, he just said, "Oh" and shifted gears. Now if I could just get him to admit/be conscious that he is extremely sensitive to tone... if I sound at all annoyed I get accused of "yelling" at him, but if I'm five minutes late calling I get "Where are *you*? with serious attitude.
I apparently sprained my ankle Monday. It seems to be a mild sprain, and I so do not want to go through the whole medical process just to be told to do what I'm doing now. But it hurts and it's making me cranky, and my not going outside is making the dog cranky.

I seriously don't know what's wrong with me. Thankfully, she'd read Cindy's TWOP recap of HIMYM and knew my history of flipping people off.
D lost his job yesterday. We're OK financially for at least a little while but neither one of us is particularly keen to stay in SoCal. Chicago calls me (and it would be great to remove myself from the middle of the family drama out here) and he wants to move back to Washington (he was looking at job listings for Wizards of the Coast last night). But every time I think about us moving away from each other I start to cry. I know we need to pursue our own interests, especially since we're "just" friends but I've never felt this kind of kinship before. At least I have some time to figure it out.
Coffee-making naked guy rebuffed by exposure charge
Okay the headline is funny, but this is kind of ridiculous. Guy's naked in his kitchen at 5:30AM, some woman and her kid are
cutting through his lawn
and happen to see him, so she calls the police? WTFF?
