[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And I have no idea what I can do about this.
You need to talk to the Dept. Head. It's (as River Tam noted)...problematic.

I'll give it a little bit of time and then talk to the department head. I'm not sure that he could do anything, though -- I mean, my advisor consistently slacks on pretty much all his duties, and the department head hasn't been able to do anything about any of that.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Ugh, Hil.
That's wonderful news!It's a very happy thing. They are some well-loved Buffista-adjacent kids.

Well, then your Dept. Head is a dillweed! It being professional suicide to say so, maybe you need to cultivate a friendship with the Dept. Head's secretary? Somebody who would advocate for you? Do you have any friends in the department?
Because your advisor is a serious impediment to moving forward with your career. And since you don't have the leverage to confront him directly, you need to triangulate a bit.

Our wings are not tired.
No doubt skipping lots of stuff in my quick skim of the days posts, but...
It is heartbreaking and incredibly wrong that it was never questioned who the other parent was when I gave birth to my children, and yet GC has to fight with time, energy, money, and emotion to get DW her parental rights. It sickens me.

My face is flush. For lack of a better phrase, I'm being head hunted for a gig back in CA.

There are a few professors that I can talk to, if he takes too long. I'm just frustrated -- I've got enough to deal with writing my dissertation and doing my part of the job applications without having to chase him down to do his job, too.

Does it pay more money? Do you want to go back?

I say focus on this. Your advisor seems completely unreliable.
