Nora, that's terrible about your great-aunt. Hoping for best outcome for her and your family.
Not gonna ask.
Wow, if *you* don't get it, I'm not even going to worry.
Timelies. I am still in a horrible, grouchy mood. I was exhausted and grumpy last night and KBD was slightly manic and kept trying to cheer me up by telling me how cute I am and smooshing my cheeks. I know he was trying to help, but damn it was hard not to smack him. The lack of Glee did not help.
I don't know what's up with me this week, but it doesn't bode well for my current AD, or at least the current dose. I did figure out that I was getting a little too obsessive about Halloween (cue interjections of disbelief) so I'm trying to let go of things like making a room number for Agent Cooper's hotel room.

More often than not, MM and I get each other's wierd, random, noone-else-gets-it stuff.
That? I don't know about. He woke up and said, "Where's the filk thread? I need to get this out of my head."
Ha ha!! I looked it up - Michael Moorcock (really? that's his last name?) books which is what he's reading right now. Ok - not crazy.
t cancels phone call to nice young men in their clean white coats
So that would be a no to the Pez?

She sees her surgeon on Friday, I guess we'll all know more then.
Much ~ma for her, and your whole family, Nora.

Huh. I was gonna guess something to do with gamers.
ION I haz a Harvey purring inside my sweater.
So that would be a no to the Pez?
Got distracted about husband's disturbing filk!
YES TO PEZ DISPENSERS!!
I'm not sure what it says about me that I knew right away was MM was writing about. Elric was an annoying pasty emo. Waking up with a full-grown filk about him is not the usual response, though. Throwing the book across the room is more common.
t Not enough coffee. Type like caveman
(((Nora))) -ma to your Aunt.
(((Smonster))) Feel better.
Mom is coming here today despite me being sick. This is probably a bad idea.
This guy offends every teaching instinct I have, but then again-- higher level academics. I know it was already pointed out that these folks don't get to where they're at because of their teaching abilities but rather what they can bring in academic ability to the institution.
He hasn't published anything in years. He's way too disorganized to actually get anything together into an article.
An idea occurred to me last night - what if you got that article that you wanted to post all polished up without waiting on the advisor, then sent him an email that says, "Here it is. I know you are busy and do not always have time to reply, so I'm going to post it on ___ day. If you have any suggestions, etc. please get back to me before then." Then just forge blithely ahead without him. When he complains that he did not want you to post it without his approval, you say, 'oh but you did approve - after all, if there were a real problem, you would have gotten back to me before I posted it, as per the email dated the ____."
This is basically what I'm planning to do.
