I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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

...I'd have loved to hear that explanation.

Hee. I would describe it as 'necessarily incomplete', especially at this time of night. Nonetheless, I think she has gathered that this board is an educational experience.

Trust my rage

Remind me again which is the one where The Doctor meets up again with Capt. Jack?

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

OK. I'm officially pissed off.

So in the class where they injected us with the Wrath of Hell Lecturers for Not Daring to Know the Topic of the Random Paragraphs They were Surprisingly Asking about (out of 40 pages of reading, so I'm really not whining here), I planned to do this week's reading thoroughly so they won't have complaints.

Then, 2 pages were missing from one of the sources they gave online to read. Yours truly went 3 times to the library searching for them in vain, then spent another hour trying to get something out of the second or third (that's how far I narrowed it down) of the The Cambridge Ancient History, Vol. 8/9 online. Again, in vain.

So I'm now going to the library trying to figure out of the fragmented text the questions they might surprise us with tomorrow. I'm not going to email them since it'll seem too little too late, and mostly because they didn't told us what are their emails, so I can't email them.

If they'll dare to try and make us (or actually, me) feel bad about not reading the whole text, as I suspect they will, I'm gonna scream. I spent about an hour and a half trying to search for something that should have been there (oh, where art thou, pages 70-71?). I think it's more than enough. And it's not like I have too much free time on my hands.

Edit: OK, I might have been over reacting. I just found the missing vol. and there was... a map. But there was no way knowing if the text was out of context of not!

ION, sister texted me that earlier today: "I'm going to hell! I just shoot a tractor and blew it up.". There wasn't anyone in said tractor, so I'm still wondering why she reacted that way.

omnis, I didn't know you were working on MSND. How awesome!

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

Happy Birthday Ginger!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Happy birthday, Ginger!

I hope a nice Halloween was had by all.

We did not meet this standard as Matilda was a raving all-night tantrum beast killing all available sleep and shredding every last nerve. She completely lost her shit.

Admittedly we committed a crime against humanity by insisting that she sleep in her own bed.
